I have hosted quite a few CC Meet & Greet gatherings and have never recieved any "perks" because of it. I have been asked several times if I do it for the "perks," and was always a bit amused by the question. When I say no, the next question is if I am a travel agent. Of course, that is another no from me. I do it because I like to meet new people and offer them a chance to do the same. I always purchase a small souvenir to gift the officers as a way to thank them for making all of our cruises so wonderful and for the people atteending the M&G to just hopefully see them smile. I've kind of assumed there were no additional perks, because we are Ambassador Lattitudes level and for the last several years always stay in the Haven. I figure our cruise life can't get much better.😊
