Venusleo1 Posted June 2, 2011 #1 Share Posted June 2, 2011 Just did the math and if I continue to sail RCI for at least 14 nights a year I will reach Pinacle in 44.2 years! I actually have a shot! Not so sure about my hubby though. :eek: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Familygoboston Posted June 2, 2011 #3 Share Posted June 2, 2011 LOL! I'm booked to Diamond status already and I'm quite shocked because I don't think of myself as a " cruiser" because we take so many other types of vacations:eek: and yet I kind of hope not to spend so much time cruising when I retire; I'm hoping I'll have time to do some other stuff! Anyway, I will look for you in the D+ lounge in 44 years ( I'll be the ancient one!):p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sugar*Magnolia Posted June 3, 2011 #5 Share Posted June 3, 2011 How many 'completed cruise points' do you need to get to Pinnacle? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nydiana Posted June 3, 2011 #6 Share Posted June 3, 2011 How many 'completed cruise points' do you need to get to Pinnacle? 700 cruise points Diana Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sugar*Magnolia Posted June 3, 2011 #7 Share Posted June 3, 2011 700 cruise points Diana Haha. We're Diamond, we only have 139 points! I dont think we'll ever become Pinnacle, only because I am sure the time will come (after we pay off 2 college tuitions) that DH and I will sail other cruiselines (le gasp!). Smaller lines that go to exotic places. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
briscogun Posted June 3, 2011 #8 Share Posted June 3, 2011 700 cruise points Diana Isn't that the equivalent of cruising in a suite for a year? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LBcruzman Posted June 9, 2011 #11 Share Posted June 9, 2011 Great Thread!!! Love this. We just reached D+ after 8 years sailing Royal Caribbean. Now (as I said in another thread) we are stuck in Eternity as we will never make Pinnacle, nor do we so desire. (Well never say never, heck I may live to 100 and the DH may too, lol!!) But like others have said. We take many types of land vacations as well and have all our kids in College (Private, yikes tuition and R&B is out of control!!!). So if we were old and retired with no kids expense, yes certainly we could easily make Pinnacle. But is it a goal? H E Double L Hockey Sticks NO!!! Funny thing is we are on equal par now with someone who has like 600 cruise points. We are all D+, hahahah!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LBcruzman Posted June 9, 2011 #13 Share Posted June 9, 2011 I imagine the ranks of the Pinnacle members is so small that announcements should be made to C & A Members when they pass on. I mean, I have definitely got to get that tongue out of my cheeck!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stags14 Posted June 9, 2011 #15 Share Posted June 9, 2011 I can't even think about it... it's depressing! 700 points is a lot. We probably won't ever make it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beth C Posted December 8, 2011 #17 Share Posted December 8, 2011 Since I only started in Dec 2009 and will have racked up a 47pts by next April 2012... assuming I manage to sail 14 days a year (unlikely but I can dream)... i'll be in my mid 80's by the time i'm Pinnacle.... man that's depressing!

ryano Posted December 8, 2011 #18 Share Posted December 8, 2011 Heh, I just wanna be a Diamond some day :rolleyes::o Only way I will see Pinnacle is if I win a mega millions lottery.........then I will likely see Pinnacle within a year or so :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pcur Posted December 8, 2011 #19 Share Posted December 8, 2011 If we take 2 transatlantics each year of at least 12 nights each, we will be Pinnacle by age 79 - 80 approximately, but who's counting, anyway? :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
