Crown & Anchor Special Rates?

[KKeeganS]

I was just on the Royal Caribbean site looking at the Crown & Anchor page. It lists one of the perks of membership as being special rates on balcony cabins if you call their member line to reserve your stateroom. Has anyone ever taken advantage of this? Is there a significant different between the balcony rate and the price available to the general public? Can you get the discout and still apply C&A coupons?

 

Thanks,

Sarah

Yes, after five cruises (or credits) you get that benefit. And yes, you can still use coupons.

Good to know. Thanks!

You don't have to call their "special number" to book to take advantage of the balcony discount.

We book either while on board or with our TA. Either way our TA calls the "special number" and gets us our balcony discount. Then when there's a coupon for our cruise I send that to our TA and he gets that applied also!

The discount is $100 for platinum memebers and $200 for diamond. This is off the total price of the cabin for a balcony or higher.

The discount depends on the length of the cruise. For Platinum, Up to 7 nights is $50, 7-11 (or 12, I forget) is $100 and over that is $250 (or is it $200? I'm not very good w/specifics). I don't know if you double it across the board for Diamond, but on our next 3-day, we're getting $100 off. You can add that the the credit you get (which also depends on the length of the cruise) and the shareholder credit you get for owning at least 100 shares of Royal Caribbean stock.

I recently called the C&A number about balcony discounts. Platinum members get $50 discount per person for 7-9 night cruises and $100 per person for 10 + night cruises. The same discounts are also for suites. We have already used these discounts for one past cruise and 2 future booked cruises, so I know this is correct. I'm not as sure of Diamond discounts but believe this to be correct: 7-9 night cruises discount is $100 per person and over 10 nights is $150 per person. Can't wait to get my extra Diamond discount on our Navigator back to back in Sept. We will become Diamond after our Brilliance April sailing.

I believe 39August is correct. We booked a 10 night and received $200 on the cabin. We are currently Platinum and will be Diamond after our next cruise, so will look forward to the addtional savings.

[chotton]

I'm sure that diamond gets $200 disocunt for 7 nights. I've used this discount many times.

[KKeeganS]

Thanks, everyone. Perhaps I can use this info to convince my husband to cruise MORE in the interest of saving money down the road :D

Plat gets 100 dollars discouont for se ven day cruises, as that is what we got for our sailing on the Navigator in 2 weeks

I believe Platinum discount on balcony or better is $100/room

The PLATINUM BALCONY Discount is:

$50 for 3-6 nights

$100 for 7-9 nights

$200 for 10+ nights

 

These discounts may be combined with Crown & Anchor coupons and with the 100 shares, shareholder discount.

 

We will not be diamond members until after our cruise in July.

[Coralc]

Sorry, that should be cruise length in days. I don't know where I got # of nights from, tired and thinking about our next cruise, I guess.. :)

 

The PLATINUM BALCONY Discount is:

$50 for 3-6 days

$100 for 7-9 days

$200 for 10+ days

Is it a discount up front or cabin credit? If I have already booked for December, then take a cruise in-between that bumps me up to Platinum, will I be able to get the discount?

[Croozin Soozin]

it's up front -

 

by the way - the discount for 14 nights is $300 for diamond members
