ckrobyn Posted November 17, 2006 #1 Share Posted November 17, 2006 I just made Platinum Status for C&A on my last cruise (it is now showing on RCI) My question is: Am I eligible for the Platinum balcony/suite discount for my upcoming AOS B2B cruise in February? Can this discount now be applied to my booking? How much is the discount? Thanks for your help! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jdkey Posted November 17, 2006 #2 Share Posted November 17, 2006 Yes Definitely! Call C&A they will apply it for you. Or your TA if you have one. I think it's $100 don't remember for sure but do ask them. Debbie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ckrobyn Posted November 17, 2006 Author #4 Share Posted November 17, 2006 yes,its $100 off.......:) I am assuming that is each week? Also, is it per person or per cabin?? Thanks for the speedy responses!!! :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ship2Shore Posted November 17, 2006 #5 Share Posted November 17, 2006 Yes, we enjoyed a $200 balcony discount on our recent 9-day. You'll enjoy some other nice 'perks' now that you are Platinum. Robes. Priority check-in. An upgraded coupon book. C & A cocktail party for Platinium & Diamond members in addition to the usual Welcome Back Party. We even got Priority Departure. Welcome to the club :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PH8 Posted November 17, 2006 #6 Share Posted November 17, 2006 Yes,its per week(you' have 2 separate booking numbers).and it is per cabin...........hurry and get to diamond and then it will bump up to $200!!:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crz4evr Posted November 18, 2006 #7 Share Posted November 18, 2006 Just when I think I'm getting the hang of the whole cruising thing - I learn something new. We were platinum on our last sailing and booked while onboard for our upcoming 12/10 Mariner cruise. To the best of my knowledge we did not receive any discount due to plantinum status. Can I go back and get that credit now - even tho we've made the final payment. And, I'm assuming that $100 credit is per cabin, correct? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PH8 Posted November 18, 2006 #8 Share Posted November 18, 2006 Yes,you can still get the $100 (PER CABIN)off IF you booked a balcony or suite............. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue Waters Posted November 18, 2006 #9 Share Posted November 18, 2006 You do have to ask for the discount once you reach platinum status. Unfortunately, they don't just give it to you automatically. If you didn't know to ask you would not receive it.:( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Call the Crown and Anchor number at 1-800-526-9723 and see what they can do for you. You should get a refund on your credit card. Any time you book a cruise, call C & A to ask for the discount. Don't wait for them to give it to you. ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Either that or since the C&A number was in my reservation, that it would be automatically applied. Now I know to call & ask for it next time. :o Bonnie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alexis Posted November 18, 2006 #13 Share Posted November 18, 2006 Alexis....I see you have an explanation in your signature..........were you getting asked alot about TMCers??:p No. I actually only saw one person ask us and by the time I saw it I figured it was easier to do this. Besides, if RCCL does read this website, I hope they read that. :mad: I am reading the postings on here from other CC's saying that they got their credits already. Who JUST got off a ship, and it is really getting me TICKED. Not the posters, but RCCL It has been 55 days from the first leg of the B2B and 48 days already from the second leg of the B2B, and nothing. :mad: So, I figure I can leave it on here for another 35 - 42 days. That will make 90. THREE MONTHS. By then, I hope they get their act together. :mad: AHHHH, it feels so good to vent. :o I'm a Diamond member & have never gotten the discount.

When I changed my next cruise from one to another, they told me I got the discount switched over too.. But, when my confirmation came through on email, it was not there. Now, I always ask for the email confirmation to be sent immediately to check on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
