C&A Benefits

[bclionsfan]

I just joined C&A (taking our 2nd RCCL cruise in August on Radiance). What kind of goodies do you get? Are they actually any good?

[luvronijean]

If you go to rccl.com, then click on Crown and Anchor loyalty program, it will explain what benefits are given to each level.

We are going on the Radiance at the end of Aug.

Any chance you'll be sailing then?

 

 

[bclionsfan]

Thanks - I've read the blurb there and in the magazine, but I'm wondering what coupons they give you onboard - anything you can actually use?

 

We're going August 21 to 28. Are you on that sailing?

[TonyaJune]

There are some useful coupons in the book. There are some for discounts on RCCL Logo items in the gift shop, free wine tasting, casino credit coupons, buy 1 get 1 free photo coupons, 15 minute free internet access, free glass of beer or wine.

 

UNTIL I SET SAIL ON THE JEWEL OF THE SEAS

The gold coupon books include buy1 get1 drink coupon, a ship postcard with phot purchase. I think it had spa discounts too. About the only 1 we ever used were the drink coupons.

I think the coupons mentioned in TonyJune's post are for the platinum level, we'll find out for sure next Friday, our 1st cruise at plat. level.

The Gold member coupon booklet that I received in March 04 had a 10% off at the salon, buy 1 get 1 free drink coupon, free 5x7 photo of the ship with a photo purchase, $10.00 match play in the casino, $5.00 bingo coupon, 5% off on any R.C. logo merchandise in the gift shop. The coupons weren't that great. The gift we received in the cabin this time was a R.C. portable walk-man radio. On the Oct 03 cruise I the gift in the cabin was a really nice "butt bag" that said R.C. Adventure of the Seas on it.

[mdushane]

When do they give you the Gold Member Book? Is it when you get your documents or when you board the ship?

[Adventure Girl]

Your cabin steward will leave them in your cabin....usually on the first night or the second night...can't remember which night.

I looked for my plat. book but couldn't find it. It does have 15 min. free internet use, buy one of your pics get one free, one free beer-wine-or soda, and then the %'s off I think are 15% and the match play and bingo are better. I have 2 gold books I never used. Maybe I'll bring them along for someone else. You also get bath robes in your cabin at the Platinum Level (even inside rooms). On the NOS we also received the standard fanny packs, post cards and a nifty toiletries set.

OK, I stand corrected,

I found what was left of the Platinum Book. It states that it is only good for the sailing you are on and in the lower right corner there is a date and version #. I believe they print them quarterly to make sure you don't use old ones. Last July the discount was 15% in the spa, 3 complimentary Jackpot bingo cards w/package purchase, complimentary wine tasting seminar, 2 - $12 for $10 Casino credits, 2 - $5 match play credit, 10% logo merchandise discount, 10 or 15 min. free internet, and the drink and picture stuff I posted earlier. Sorry for the miss info.

The original poster is a Gold level, at least now they can see what they have to look forward too. I hear the diamond books are even better!

Diamond books are better.. Free 8x10 picture, more free bingo cards, free drink in souvineer glass, free wine tasting (in other books too), 20 mins internet service.. I forget the rest - my cabinmate had one. They also get better goodies almost every day delivered like - Chocolate Strawberries, special cocktail party and other nicknacks.

 

We both recieved fanny packs for being C&A members on the last cruise with the ship's name embrodiered on them. They were pretty nice.
