This also explains why my last week on the Freedom is listed as 14 points. I thought that it was a mistake. I have been debating whether to call and question it.

 

But now we all have verification from three ships on this thread: Allure, Oasis and Freedom. We all, who cruised solo the week of 9/22 - 9/29, received 14 points instead of 7. And now we know the reason. ;)

 

I cruised THREE WEEKS solo last month. I'd love to have 42 points for that, but I'm still happy to have 28 instead of 21.

 

And in my opinion (and that's ALL that it is), we WON'T get the extra points on the Quantum's single cabins. I couldn't get my usual single supplement reduction on it when I booked it, "because it's already priced as a single fare".

 

The statistics that would be interesting to know: how many SINGLES are high D+, and thus likely to hit Pinnacle much sooner because of this policy? My guess: not "that" many.

I'm a little past half way to Pinnacle and always sail solo. I had figured it would take at least 10 more years to get to Pinnacle, that's now been reduced to five or six, still a ways off, but definitely more in sight.

Too bad it's not retroactive, I'd be Pinnacle, what with almost 40 solo cruises. Now it might only take five more years to get there instead of 10, cool!

"The Last Voyage", 1960, starring Robert Stack. A liner on it's last voyage suffers a boiler explosion and begins to sink, Robert Stack's character must rescue his wife who is trapped under a beam in their cabin.

Now that's the scariest thing I've read since this power problem began!!

 

:eek:

Cruel, but fair.

Thanks for the list, Patti, say hi to Jim for me.

My standing order is for a bottle of wine, but more times than not, I've also gotten the cheese plate and strawberries as welcome back gifts from the hotel manager and the loyalty ambassador. If I play my cruises right I'll get to 340 points by the end of next year which will get me the 150% single supplement rate which to me is worth a lot more than the amenities.

Once one is seated can anyone really tell what kind of pants they are wearing? Does it really spoil anyone's meal if they see someone in jeans for the 15 seconds it takes for them to walk to their table? Hey, who knows what that news anchor is wearing beind that desk?
