Any benefit to being Red VIFP?

If there is I cant seem to find it. It looks like all the perks have been withheld until you reach Gold status.

a free bottle of water?

Hahahahahahahaha! This has to be the funniest threads ever. The only difference between Red and Gold is a measly drink coupon for the last night after 5PM. Take your time getting to Gold. It's nothing special.

Its a stepping stone towards Diamond level...

a bottle of water and a different colored card, so you can feel 'special' in your 'elite' status. :rolleyes:

 

in short, NO :)

Stepping stone?? More like a Mt Everest expedition!!

[cantthinkofanythingfun]

red is a pretty color.

[creef1014]

Thanks everyone. I figured I had to be missing something but apparently and unfortunately I'm not...

 

Carnival might as well upgrade all the Reds to Golds and make us feel special. Think of the savings when you have one less category of nothingness to manage.

Yes. If you book a group for your next cruise, and since you are now an "experienced" cruiser, you can be your group's leader. Just imagine how your group will be in awe of your knowledge and wisdom.:rolleyes:

Even Reds get the bottle of water.

LOL. This is more like it:D Good one.

[Towel Critter]

The benefit is that being Red you have obviously discovered cruising and enjoyed it enough to go back for seconds. That is a pretty good perk. Red level is astronomically better than no level. Happy cruising!

a fine and dandy one liter bottle of water :D

You can reach gold in 3 cruises, not really that hard. Not sure what perks should be expected for only 3 cruises. I fly Delta all the time and they don't give me anything.

[Vitamin_Sea]

being Gold isnt much better then red actually. Big deal, we get water, a pin and a drink coupon.

 

Platinum is wear the benefits kick in. But you need 75 points

So true but not to worry next they continue taking away stuff from platinums.

[rudechuck]

I never even got my pin. I was crushed. :rolleyes:

 

I'm not really complaining. I have "Mr. Sancho" (coconut monkeyhead in my avatar).

I actually prefer their Platinum perks to my CCL D iamond perks

[SMSACE6]

I can see it now; Carnival's next vifp change. They mix red and gold together to make an orange level. Everyone gets a bottle of water and an orange plastic pin, but they will find a lame reason to discontinue the free drink coupon (that could only be used after 5pm on the last evening of the cruise:rolleyes:
