IMNiles Posted June 25, 2006 #1 Share Posted June 25, 2006 I see occasional references to the notion that the C&A savings certificates (this is distinct from the platinum/diamond "balcony discount") vary by C&A status.. Can anyone confirm or deny this? I myself am platinum, but am charged with planning a cruise for friends who are not. I can only see "my" coupons online, and I want to make sure I don't misquote a coupon value to a friend who is Gold. So, do the coupon values vary by status, or are they the same for everyone? [while we're at it, maybe we can clarify once and for all the "balcony discount" numbers as well... I believe they are $50 per cabin for 7 day, $100 for 10, and $200 for 14?] Thanks!

pcur Posted June 25, 2006 #2 Share Posted June 25, 2006 Yes, the coupons vary by status. The higher the C&A status, the bigger the discount or value of the coupon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aprille Posted June 25, 2006 #3 Share Posted June 25, 2006 I don't know the breakdown of balcony discounts but I do know for Platinum it is $100 per cabin for 7 day cruise since I've used it for both of our upcoming cruises. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pepsicruiser Posted June 25, 2006 #4 Share Posted June 25, 2006 I'm diamond and got $300 off for a 9 day balcony if that helps. It would have been $200 for outside i believe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
katiel53 Posted June 25, 2006 #5 Share Posted June 25, 2006 They are tiered by level. If you call C&A and ask what the discounts are, if any, for gold members, I am sure they should be able to tell you. Like you, when I look at the discounts, my Diamond category discounts are shown. Have fun planning your cruise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
truffles2 Posted June 25, 2006 #6 Share Posted June 25, 2006 If your friends are first time RCI cruisers, there will be NO discount for them. It is hard to tell from your post if they are first timers or just less than platinum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elleluv Posted June 25, 2006 #7 Share Posted June 25, 2006 The coupon values do vary according to C&A status... I think the suggestion to call C&A for the gold value is definitely the way to go... The balcony discounts are: For Platinum... $50 for up to 5 nights $100 for 6-8 nights $200 for 9 nights or more For Diamond... $100 for up to 5 nights $200 for 6-8 nights $300 for 9 nights or more Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IMNiles Posted June 28, 2006 Author #8 Share Posted June 28, 2006 Thanks for the replies.. The majority of my travel companions will be second-timers, making them Gold. I guess I'll just have to call for the Gold coupon values, or get one of them to look them up for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
