Clio1610 Posted July 8, 2012 #1 Share Posted July 8, 2012 As we are about to take our first cruise as 'Platinum' C & A - I was wondering what we get different or over & above 'Gold' ? Are the booklets different ? What will our Teen Son get in his Platinum book ? Thank you for all replies ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gerif Posted July 8, 2012 #2 Share Posted July 8, 2012 You should get priority check-in and a special departure lounge. In addition to the regular repeaters party, there is one for platinum and above. Not sure if the kids' coupon books vary by level. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reney313 Posted July 8, 2012 #3 Share Posted July 8, 2012 In addition to the priority embarkation/disembarkation lounge and the platinum & above party, your coupon books will be better. There are a few threads on here that have the link to what is included in each book by level. And, of course, all your stuff will say "Platinum" on it (sea pass card, luggage tags, set sail pass).

smoosh21 Posted July 9, 2012 #4 Share Posted July 9, 2012 I only did one cruise as Platinum before we jumped to Emerald, so I can't offer too much, but the coupon book is slightly better. For boarding status, Emerald and Platinum are lumped together, but Emerald gets a slightly better coupon book. Platinum gives you an extra Spin to Win in the casino and extra match play coupons. Still, you really have to wait until Diamond to start getter the elite frequent passenger treatment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clarea Posted July 9, 2012 #5 Share Posted July 9, 2012 You should get robes in your stateroom. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
storm1of4 Posted July 9, 2012 #6 Share Posted July 9, 2012 It was fun climbing the C&A ladder! I was so happy to reach Platnum and receive the robes and upgraded shampoos. At Platnum you'll have two free cocktail parties now! RCI's loyalty program is great and rewarding. Have fun getting to D+! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
akcruz Posted July 9, 2012 #7 Share Posted July 9, 2012 Think others have hit the differences in the adult coupon book, but just to add the teen book is no different by level (unfortunately). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
allanv Posted July 9, 2012 #8 Share Posted July 9, 2012 It DOES feel good to be platinum, doesn't it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sr5242 Posted July 14, 2012 #9 Share Posted July 14, 2012 I also just made platinum, but I travel with my mom who is emerald so I usually glom onto her benefits. But after our 12 night in october she'll be diamond! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DonnaK Posted July 14, 2012 #10 Share Posted July 14, 2012 If you are staying in a balcony or suite cabin, make sure you call C&A (or have your TA call, if you used one) and get your platinum balcony discount applied. Sometimes the robes aren't in the room...we've had to ask for them on about half the cruises we've taken since becoming platinum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
