Cigar King Posted May 11, 2012 #26 Share Posted May 11, 2012 Sell it on ebay. They seem to fetch a pretty good price. We have kept ours but don't display them. Good idea...now I have a reason to want this. It makes cruising cheaper. ;-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lady_cruiser Posted May 11, 2012 #27 Share Posted May 11, 2012 If this is what they look like, they are very nice and should be displayed with pride Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruzin lady Posted May 11, 2012 #28 Share Posted May 11, 2012 We really like the blocks, and will get our 4th. block on Navigator in Jan. We have ours on the dresser top with cruise pictures behind them. We like ours, and they remind us of many cruises. The blocks as noted above are. supposed to be given onboard when someone gets to the magic numbers, but it doesn't hurt to notify the Loyalty Ambassador that you'll be at the number. If you are a person who thinks they are useless, I'm sure you could sell it right there on the ship. Personally, we think it is a very nice perk from RC. They don't have to give them.

Sue Dawson Posted May 12, 2012 #29 Share Posted May 12, 2012 How heavy are they? I should hit 140 on Serenade in Europe. I definitely want one but don't necessarily want the extra weight in my suitcase. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cruiseprincess27 Posted May 13, 2012 #32 Share Posted May 13, 2012 We got our 1st crystal block on the Liberty in February. Never had to ask, it was just waiting for us in the room! Now it sits on the dresser as a reminder of a fantastic cruise :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cigar King Posted May 14, 2012 #37 Share Posted May 14, 2012 I am D+ and I never received a crystal block. Perhaps a call to C&A is in order? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rubrrick Posted May 14, 2012 #38 Share Posted May 14, 2012 I am D+ and I never received a crystal block. I don't know if they have lowered the point, but it used to be 30 cruises, or 210 points. Someone has said that they have lowered the number to 140 cruise points to receive your first crystal block. Then it's a crystal block every 70 points after.;) Rick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clarea Posted May 14, 2012 #39 Share Posted May 14, 2012 I am D+ and I never received a crystal block. If you had more than 20 cruise credits when they lowered the first block point from 30 to 20 cruise credits (sometime in 2010 if my memory is accurate), then you missed it. Royal did not go back and give blocks to everyone who had 20 or more credits. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
