Cruisin08 Posted January 15, 2009 #1 Share Posted January 15, 2009 Hi, this is my second cruise with RCCL. My first was a year ago on the Adventure of the Seas, this time around we will be on the Serenade of the Seas. What are the main differences between the two ships? Also, since we are now Gold members of the Crown & Anchor Society :), I would like to know what 'exactly' are the perks? I have read about what sorts of benefits we have, but does anyone have any specific examples? Also - totally off topic - how do you create the signature lines (with all those cute cruise countdown pics etc.) Thanks, Cruisin08 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
new cruise r Posted January 15, 2009 #2 Share Posted January 15, 2009 Serenade is a bit smaller, doesn't have the Royal promenade, but nice ship. As for the C & A, you will get a nice coupon book, which has several coupons including two free drinks and 10% off two bottles of wine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it's one you're booking you just send it in. The coupons either come in the magazine they send or you can register online and view them.

yogimax Posted January 16, 2009 #4 Share Posted January 16, 2009 The main difference is that Adventure is a Voyager Class ship with the Royal Promenade, Ice Skating, etc.. Serenade is a nice ship, but without the bells and whistles of the Voyager Class. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cruisin08 Posted January 23, 2009 Author #5 Share Posted January 23, 2009 Thanks for your responses. as for the coupon booklit - I guess I'll have to wait and see what specials I'll have for the upcoming cruise. cheers! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ndfaninal Posted January 23, 2009 #6 Share Posted January 23, 2009 Is there any trick to getting the magazine. I've been a C&A member for 3 years, I get lots of literature by mail of the pamphlet variety, but never have gotten the magazine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
negc Posted January 23, 2009 #7 Share Posted January 23, 2009 I suggest calling C&A and requesting that they place you on the mailing list (you should have been placed on it when they assigned you a crown and anchor number). The magazine is now only a semi-annual publication so you should also sign up online to make sure you get the discount coupons they offer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ndfaninal Posted January 23, 2009 #8 Share Posted January 23, 2009 Thanks, Bill. I'm signed up online, so I'll just ask to be on the mailing list as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aubiecruiser Posted January 23, 2009 #9 Share Posted January 23, 2009 You'll get an invitation to the welcome back party. Some of the coupons are a $5 match play coupon for the casino, 10% discount off a gift shop purchase, and a photo discount. You'll probably get one for Johnny Rockets, just hold on to it for another cruise. Radiance class ships don't have one, they have the Seaview Cafe. We've only been on one Voyager class ship, the Explorer, and personally we like the Radiance Class ships better. Much easier to navigate and there are lots of windows in the public areas. They also have the self-leveling pool tables in the Colony Club. Aubie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cruisin08 Posted January 23, 2009 Author #10 Share Posted January 23, 2009 Aubiecruiser and others... thanks again for the helpful tips. I'm going to the C&A online and register for the magazine. So the coupons will be given to us on the ship?....I somehow thought that we would get the coupons with our cruise tickets + pamphlet. Oh well, I'll just have to wait until we board. Cheers!

Cavatelli430 Posted January 23, 2009 #11 Share Posted January 23, 2009 Your C & A coupon books should be waiting for you in your stateroom on the first day! I always grab that & the compass to take to Windjammer to check it out during lunch. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1stCruiser2008 Posted January 25, 2009 #12 Share Posted January 25, 2009 AOS was my first cruise ship also in March!! I loved it! Now I'm going on Ind. of the Seas on March 1st. I've never been on any others. Have fun! But I think I will always remember AOS as a special one, 44 of us went from our club, and we had a group picture -- was a blast!!
