Combining discounts

[MS52]

We are just Platinum after our January cruise and are now entitled to a balcony discount for our next cruise. We've have already booked for next year. I'm waiting for our points to be credited so I can call and ask for the discount to be applied.

 

I just noticed that there's also a C&A certificate for our cruise. ($200)

 

Can they both be applied or are you just entitled to one?

 

I suspect I already know the answer but thought I'd ask the experts. :o

Just had the same, Balcony and C&A certificate. They were not combinable, but the C&A certificate was for $25 more so choice it.

I guess my next question is - just how much is the Platinum balcony discount? It doesn't say on the website.

 

And does the discount increase as your status increases?

 

Thanks.

Depends on number of nights and yes it does increase with each tier.

Someone else may be able to confirm but I believe the Platinum balcony discount is $200 with a 6 month+ reservation and $175 under 6 months.

 

It increases to $225 / $200 with Diamond and $250 / $225 with D+.

 

At Platinum the savings certificates and balcony discounts typically equal each other as you have seen and at D and higher typically the balcony discount is greater than the certificates. Just have to look and compare.

I think for Platinum it is $100 for a 7 night in a non suite cabin. Emerald goes up to $125. These are for the 6 months ahead booking. Book less than 6 months in advance and each is reduced by $25.

 

There is a thread somewhere on here with the exact info for each level, length of cruise, and cabin type.

Thanks for correcting me. Had it wrong about Platinum level and cruise length! Hate to give incorrect info.
