i was just talking to the D+ desk for a problem with a client, and i casually asked about tomorrows announcement, and she said she just got an e-mail that the announcement has been postponed.

 

Just wanted to highlight this as it was buried in a long thread!

That is good news if you are right.

My brother has 23 credits and will take cruise #24 in 10 days...was afraid changes may affect his being a D+ with just 1 pt away!!

I got an email with a change to tomorrow's webinar.........it was going to be called " ""It Just Keeps Getting Better!""..............Now they are calling it "Royal Advantage"(and here's the description)

 

 

 

Join us as we continue our discussion of the Royal Advantage, and learn how you can leverage upcoming enhancements to Freedom of the Seas and Liberty of the Seas to build your business.

 

 

 

I forget the description of "Its Just Keeps Getting Better",but it insinuated,it was to be about the changes.............

 

 

 

So it looks like they are postponing it......

 

 

From another long thread...looks like you're right. This is being postponed.

I sure wish CC would add a sub forum for all these threads.......it would be so much easier to keep track of them all.:)

You're not kidding!! :) Between this topic and "what do I wear on formal nights?" I can't tell what else is going on in the world. :p

Of course characterizing this as a postponement assumes that the original rumored date was correct. Not sure that a postponement qualifies as "good news" unless it was done because they have rethought some of the changes. Only time will tell whether the finished product is better or worse than originally thought. It does, of course, give added life to Rumor Central. ;) I predict that the first new rumors will be: a new date for the announcement (any takers on a date?), and what will be different from the original predictions when the announcement is actually made.

I agree! All this aligns with the info I was given on the LOS Jan 2 ;)

[Mystaken]

First of all the webinar may never have had anything to do with the official announcement. We may have just read that into it with the timing of it.

 

And one person here told us that a C&A rep said it's been postponed. How many times has someone here been wrong or even more likely, how many times has a C&A rep been right?

 

Maybe someone else should call and see what the next C&A rep says. :eek:

someone could do an online chat..;)

I am so happy for you!!!

[FrannyK]

Thank goodness! We leave on our 5th RCI cruise next week which would kick us up to platinum for our 6th cruise. With the new rumored "days at sea" qualifications, we would have to take a 6th and maybe 7th cruise before we could become platinum (we normally take 4/5 night cruises). I hope they stall for a while on this!

OK...show us what they say. :D You're good at that so I elect you.
