Taking Oceania Regatta cruise in a few days from Los Angeles to Sydney.  There are 3 legs: LA to Tokyo; Tokyo to Indonesia; Indonesia to Sydney. Does Oceania consider the trip 1 cruise or 3 cruises for point purposes

Depends on how you booked it. 
“Extended Journey” treated as single cruise.

“Custom Cruise” (letter in the cruise ID number - not your booking number) treated as separate for cruise credits.

“Separate Cruises” (two or more booking numbers)-treated as separate cruises.

Depending on your O Club level, perks and credits differences mean you always have to do the math.

Welcome to CruiseCritic

 

With your title, "Cruise Legs", I thought this was going to be about walking/stability after a cruise (Mal de Débarquement Syndrome aka Mal de Debarkment syndrome),

😆

 

As for your question, you should ask Oceania, or perhaps see if you can book individual segments; I suspect you would be able to.  However, whether they *only* sell that itinerary one way - OR the other - is, again up to Oceania.

 

Sounds like a wonderful trip!  ENJOY!

I found this:

 

Club Members qualify for Oceania Club level status based on the number of cruise credits earned.
1 CREDIT
up to 24 days
2 CREDITS
25-34 days
3 CREDITS
35-44 days
4 CREDITS
45-54 days
5 CREDITS
55-64 days
7 CREDITS
65-99 days
10 CREDITS
100-157 days
15 CREDITS
158+ days

 

 

My next cruise is 50 days, so I should be earning 4 credits

CruisingMaryland is correct.  We did the exact cruise last Fall that the OP is asking about.  When we booked, it was offered as one cruise.  We received 7 club credits for our sailing.

Actually depends upon when you booked, and how Oceania now allows it to be booked. Oceania mostly changed the game starting this past April. Now they won’t allow multiple segments to be booked together if the sum of credits is greater than the parts, whereas before they did.
 

As an example , previously if a cruise segment was 24 days and the second segment was 17 days, one could book the two segments as an Extended Journey and get the three credits for the 35 days. Now, they have mostly eliminated that by booking them separately and only giving the one credit per segment. Their game their rules, past practices don’t apply. Best to check with your TA or O rep to answer your question.
