If you reach D+ on the first cruise of a back-to-back, then they will normally recognize your new status on the second cruise. Not in the middle of the cruise though.

Sorry. Never saw it posted

Unfortunately you do not earn points until you have completed your cruise. Your D+ benefits will begin on all future cruises.

Even though you don't technically get the status until after the cruise (I think like 60 days) you can always talk to the Loyalty Concierge and I've heard cases where the people were given the pins or some other "hurray" gift even though their cards were not switched out. If nothing else, the LC's always love to hear about people moving up in the C&A program.

 

So, you'd have nothing to lose by mentioning it to them while on the ship. They may just say, "Congratulations" or they may do something more for you. Couldn't hurt.

More like 5-10 days. Your next tier is confirmed with the posting of your points by C&A after your cruise. And as clarea indicated, if you are on a B2B and reach the next tier on your first leg, as long as the LA knows in advance you typically will be allowed your new tier benefits on your second leg.

Thanks for the correction. I didn't really know for sure. My point was that it doesn't hurt to mention it. They won't kick you off the ship for becoming a D+ during the cruise.

That would be the Loyalty Ambassador.

I made D+ on our last cruise on the Quantum, and nothing of notice. However, did receive a congratulation letter and that recognition would occur on subsequent cruise--we'll see.

26 points to go...

 

The only perk I'm looking forward to is the BOGO dinner, is there something else exciting that I'm missing?

Nothing to speculate about - you will be D+ on your next cruise with the associated benefits. BTW, if you book balcony staterooms you will receive an additional $25 discount now.

 

Congratulations on reaching D+!

It should only take one week after the cruise.

No need to post that. Just ignore if you feel that way.

It is not a perk on oasis they offer 50% off to all passengers regardless of status. I wish they would swap this out to $ off drink packages instead.

Freedom posts in 6 days, they are always there on Saturday after a Sunday return. Maybe that's 7 :confused:

It varies based on workload I guess but it typically takes about 5 - 10 days in our experience. I don't think it has to do with the ship, however. :)

Yeah, I got that point :)

 

I think I was remembering how long you have to transfer bookings made on board to a TA after the cruise.

 

Sorry for the mistake.
