HKG Posted October 23, 2008 Author #51 Share Posted October 23, 2008 We were on Monarch in Sept 08 also. But we received mini flashlight that attaches to keychain. Just out of curiousity' date=' when in Sept did you sail? We did Sept 26-29. We were in GS and are Platinum. Wondering if any of that makes a difference in what you receive.[/quote'] I was on Sept 22-26 and in Superior Oceanview roo.. It must be your status and room catagory.

luvscruising2007 Posted October 23, 2008 #52 Share Posted October 23, 2008 I liked the suggestion of a photo album with the name of the ship. If you cruise a lot it wouldn't make any difference if you had more than one because you would have a photo album for your pictures of each of your wonderful trips. Incidently my DH liked the ball cap and wears it often. I, on the other hand, will probably never wear it.;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We also got the mini flashlight and batteries. My sister, who was in another room down the hall from us, got a totebag. Who knows how they decide what to leave....

I was on the Sept. 29-Oct. 3rd cruise. After calling the C&A 2 separate days asking about my "freebie" I finally got it on the last night. BUT while everyone else told me it was just a mini flashlight, mine was a really nice travel alarm clock/money convertor. The clock will show time in 16 different countries. I LIKE it!:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

peck Posted November 17, 2008 #57 Share Posted November 17, 2008 So far we have not recieved any free gifts and when we booked our lastest cruise on Jewel of the Seas RCL didnt seem to think my DW had cruised with them before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barbee524 Posted November 17, 2008 #58 Share Posted November 17, 2008 I generally give away whatever I get to my tablemates if they want them or to other cruisers. I have so much RCI logo stuff that I really don't want any more. If we win the trivia contest we usually give the prizes to the second place team. We managed to win a total of 6 document holders in one day playing trivia and really with e-documents do you even need those anymore? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dcastro Posted November 17, 2008 #59 Share Posted November 17, 2008 I must have the worst luck. I've sailed with RCI 6 times and never gotten anything from them. Well, I tke that back. I did get something on the Maiden Voyage of the Explorer but it wasn't a C&A thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VickyMcG Posted November 17, 2008 #60 Share Posted November 17, 2008 Speaking of "gifts" does anyone know about this: (announcement for shareholders)::::::Any insight? Thanks Please note that as of December 31, 2008, the Shareholder Onboard Credit will not be combinable with other Onboard Booking Credits, Loyalty Programs and/or other Reduced Fare Offerings.

For bookings made prior to December 31, 2008, the Shareholder Onboard Credit is combinable under certain conditions. Please direct queries to InvestorRelations@rccl.com, and a prompt response will be forthcoming. What about it do you want to know? People will no longer be able to combine coupons/discounts/OBC's given by the cruise line itself after 12/31/08 - you can pick one such perk. OBC's from Travel Agents and from Royal Caribbean credit card are not impacted. With how low the stock has gone there is a good chance they will just do away completely with Shareholder OBC in the near future. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you are listening RCI "All right already RCI Something new please":eek: I agree I've got 4 hats and 4 fanny packs...but, you can put me in for a tote bag next month :D.

familycruzer Posted November 20, 2008 #68 Share Posted November 20, 2008 I am happy about a cap. My DH was going to buy one for our upcoming cruise, so that saves us a few bucks. I already have 8 bags. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

senrab Posted November 21, 2008 #74 Share Posted November 21, 2008 Ok so I have a question. I sailed last year, and am taking my girlfriend in January. Since this is her first cruise, will she receive a gift/coupon book/invitation to the welcome back party/etc.? I vaguely remember hearing that since she's in the same cabin, she gets the invitations and perks that I do. (Doesn't a first time cruiser traveling with a Diamond + get access to the CL with their diamond travel companion?) Is that correct? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
safari njema Posted November 21, 2008 #75 Share Posted November 21, 2008 I really liked my tote bag I got from Explorer Dec 2007. I've actually used it after the trip. Blue with the tan straps you put on yourself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
