Platinum Member Benefits??

[LibraByTheSea]

Been on alot of cruises, most with Carnival. Since they started the Past Member VIP status, it is hard not to go Carnival...yep got me! lol

I have not read anything about the benefits on the boards recently. Do they still do that?

I cruised on the Valor (all by myself) in July 06. They treated me very well as a Platinum. Still going?

Some of the perks that I remember was: Skippers Club check-in...a seperate counter at the Pursers desk...priority tender and/or missing the lines in St Thomas for the customs thing (that was appreciated)...canpes and deserts in the cabin a couple nights...an extra cocktail party (didnt go but nice gesture)...the Platinum Stationary (never used it but looked kool)

Any update is appreciated.

I am sailing Triumph (time #5) in October and hope I still get the benies...lol:cool:
