omeinv Posted November 21, 2013 #1 Share Posted November 21, 2013 From the Captain's Club section of the X website, just now: http://www.celebritycruises.com/capt...its&cS=SIDENAV Preview Tier As a Preview Member**, you'll receive complimentary access to our Captain's Club Loyalty Desk service center and a Captain's Club newsletter with the latest program news and information. Classic Tier As a Classic member**, you'll receive complimentary access to our Captain's Club Celebration event. You'll also enjoy great ways to save with exclusive onboard premium offers. Select Tier As a Select member**, you'll enjoy all the benefits of a Classic member, plus discounted Internet and laundry service specials. Elite Tier Our Elite members** know that loyalty yields great rewards, including complimentary Internet and laundry services and complimentary Captain's Club cocktail hour. Elite Plus Tier Our Elite Plus members** In recognition of our most devoted Elite members, we have created Elite Plus - delivering a higher level of recognition with greater benefits, including additional beverage and specialty dining discounts, complimentary 200-minute internet package, cappuccinos, lattes, and more. Zenith Tier Our Zenith members** The highest of Captain's Club membership - Zenith - is designed exclusively for our most loyal guests, offering the qualkity benefits and perks befitting this ultimate level of membership, such as complimentary beverage package, access to our exclusive Michael's Club Concierge Lounge, complimentary laundry, and priority seating in theater. The points info is not updated on the website yet, let alone any conversion formula, but it's clear that 1 "old" point is equal to 30 new points. Indeed, no indication that anyone will lose anything they have now. Elite retains a "cocktail hour", although no mention of a lounge, so I suspect vouchers. Elite Plus will get 200 minutes of internet, and discounts on specialty restaurants and drink packages, and some free coffee drinks. Zenith, free drink packages, and "Michael's Club Concierge Lounge" (whatever that turns out to entail) Harris Denver, CO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

iSailor Posted November 21, 2013 #8 Share Posted November 21, 2013 (edited) slightly confused with this as I don's see anything to do with conversion of points? 9 points x 30 =270 new point(Select) 10 points x 30 = 300 new point(Elite) Edited November 21, 2013 by iSailor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

iSailor Posted November 21, 2013 #10 Share Posted November 21, 2013 thanks and what was the +50 points that I noticed someone speaking about? That's is the bonus point to grandfather those who are short by 1 point. That didn't apply to my case:confused::confused::confused: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruisegirl1 Posted November 21, 2013 #11 Share Posted November 21, 2013 I did not see anything regarding RCCL reciprocity. So, if one is Diamond plus on RCCL will that equate to Elite plus, Pinaccle to Zenith? Will Elite plus equal D plus on RCCL.? (Currently elite at all levels only equals Diamond on RCCL). . When I looked at the site, the new categories were listed but the old credit system was showing. My morning laugh.....in Zenith, you get "qualkity". Let the fun begin!

celebrity Posted November 21, 2013 #12 Share Posted November 21, 2013 I am ok with this as I kept my status and it doesn't appear we lost anything. Wonder how reciprocal benefits will work? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gordylad Posted November 21, 2013 #13 Share Posted November 21, 2013 so someone with say 7 points now has 210 points needing 90 points to get to elite which is a future sale in concierge class. That would gave been 3 points anyway so I dont get why this new system has been introduced? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ex-Airbalancer Posted November 21, 2013 #14 Share Posted November 21, 2013 It appears that captain clubs phones will get jammed up today because of this change If you just read the website , the most points you can get on a cruise is 3, to get move from classic to select you need 149 points Also a 2/3 day cruise is worth just as much as a 11 day cruise :rolleyes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

deise17311 Posted November 21, 2013 #16 Share Posted November 21, 2013 Anyone notice it say qualkity instead of quality under Zenith...do they hire morons at Celebrity? This is basic stuff to have copy proofed... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Boston Posted November 21, 2013 #17 Share Posted November 21, 2013 Anyone notice it say qualkity instead of quality under Zenith...do they hire morons at Celebrity? This is basic stuff to have copy proofed... I guess it goes to show that we all make mistakes and could benefit from proofreading our copy before publishing it.

mferranti Posted November 21, 2013 #18 Share Posted November 21, 2013 The devaluation of the points gives Celebrity a lot more flexibility to use them as incentives — for a cruise booking as we've seen with the advance 123 promo, and on board too. I can foresee things like "spend $50 in the shops, get 5 tier points" and lots more coming. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Host Joe Posted November 21, 2013 #19 Share Posted November 21, 2013 I sure hope there will be a conversion relating to nights sailed and not just a conversion from the old points system as we have mainly sailed 10 and 11 night cruises. If there is a conversion based upon a per-night sailing we could fly high quickly but if it's just off the 1 point earned for each old point on 10 and 11 day cruises then we won't go anywhere near as high.

Lovemychoos Posted November 21, 2013 #22 Share Posted November 21, 2013 Thanks very much for posting - we will stay where we are (just achieved Elite after our last cruise) so it makes no difference to us. I'll be interested to see how they will calculate your future points Lou Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I looked at the site, the new categories were listed but the old credit system was showing. My morning laugh.....in Zenith, you get "qualkity". Let the fun begin! M About reciprocity… (copy and paste) Reciprocity Between Brands Equivalent recognition is one of the benefits of being a Captain's Club, Crown & Anchor Society and/or Le Club Voyage loyalty member. It offers loyalty members the opportunity to receive recognition and similar benefits with matching tier status - both pre-cruise and onboard - when sailing with one of the three brands. Members of one loyalty program must enroll in a sister program in order to receive equivalent recognition benefits. Cruise credits earned on one brand are not combinable with cruise credits earned on another brand. Cruise credits earned on one brand remain according to actual cruises taken with that brand and are calculated using that brand's program level accrual system. The benefits of the Captain's Club, Crown & Anchor Society and Le Club Voyage loyalty programs remain independent and cannot be combined. Equivalent recognition between program membership levels works as follows: Celebrity Cruises' Captain's Club Select level is equivalent to Royal Caribbean's Crown & Anchor Society Platinum and Emerald levels and Azamara Club Cruises' Le Club Voyage Explorer level. Celebrity Cruises' Captain's Club Elite level is equivalent to Royal Caribbean's Crown & Anchor Society Diamond, Diamond Plus and Pinnacle Club levels and Azamara Club Cruises' Le Club Voyage Discoverer level. Celebrity Cruises' Captain's Club Preview and Classic levels are not part of the equivalent recognition benefit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare PMT51 Posted November 21, 2013 #24 Share Posted November 21, 2013 thanks and what was the +50 points that I noticed someone speaking about? Did anyone clear this up? We have 9 points now (=270 in the new system) an extra 50 points added right now (=330) would put us into Elite for our upcoming cruise. This would be a nice thing if true.

CruisingChick Posted November 21, 2013 #25 Share Posted November 21, 2013 Anyone notice it say qualkity instead of quality under Zenith...do they hire morons at Celebrity? This is basic stuff to have copy proofed... Yes I noticed right away. Doesn't anyone else think that they should have converted our Captain's Club Credits before they announced this? It still says we are Elite with 29 credits. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
