elliair Posted May 14, 2016 #4 Share Posted May 14, 2016 Walk away from the computer... LOL. ;) LOL! I put a $200 deposit down on a future cruise. We don't care if we're elite or whatever status as long as we're cruising. I don't need to wear a lanyard around my neck advertising it.:rolleyes: Keep moving is my only advice.

Then you will get three credits. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gwendy Posted May 14, 2016 #6 Share Posted May 14, 2016 I cruise because I love it. Being Elite is just a bonus, yes I wear my card on a lanyard not to show everyone I am Elite but so as I don't lose it. Same way I wore my card when it was that pretty blue.

I'm not cruising to reach elite either, but pretty soon that'll be a bi product of loving to cruise and loving Princess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pris993 Posted May 14, 2016 #8 Share Posted May 14, 2016 When we started cruising, they did not have elite.... somehow we go there anyway, well over 50 cruises, lost count, on 9 different cruise lines... yes, we are elite on princess, celebrity too... but still prefer Princess. Have fun getting there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IsanTom Posted May 14, 2016 #9 Share Posted May 14, 2016 I will be an Elite on my next Princess cruise, but I plan to wear my Haven Pin on this cruise! Number one is enjoy your cruise and don't worry about others! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lucky TGO Posted May 14, 2016 #10 Share Posted May 14, 2016 I did not start cruising to become Elite but it's OK now that I made it. :D We cruise because we just like it so much and it's better to be on a cruise in January & February then in Boston. It's so Coooooooooold :eek: Tony Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hmmm…i did notice your elite status is PROMINENTLY displayed in your signature every time you post here…but i don't see folks doing the "rolleyes"? Although we do not, carrying your card on a lanyard seems to be a common sense way way to not misplace your card. just an observation Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Both logos cost me thousands of dollars. I also wear my elite button on my hat. I think you're suppose to wear it right? BTW, when we went to the past guest party on Princess, this woman who sat by us asked about our status. I wouldn't tell her. She insisted unless we were elite, we shouldn't be at the party enjoying drinks. She whipped out her card like it was the ultimate status symbol. After a couple glasses of wine, my mouth started running. She got up and left.:D P.S. I keep my card in my pants pocket along with my cell phone.

Although we do not, carrying your card on a lanyard seems to be a common sense way way to not misplace your card. just an observation Yes, maybe common sense, but I would rather wear a nice piece of jewelry. Personally, I carry my card in a small leather card case or small wristlet when I am also bringing my phone. Better yet wear clothes that have pockets. Luckily, I haven't lost a card yet. Hey, one could tout they wear platinum jewelry and they wouldn't be wrong.:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since when was that a requirement? btw- if status isn't important why bother advertising it especially on a ship that has several hundred of others in the same category ?

Rare PescadoAmarillo Posted May 14, 2016 #20 Share Posted May 14, 2016 I don't need to wear a lanyard around my neck advertising it. You are in good company then. I think most of us don't wear lanyards for that reason. :rolleyes: Cruising is an expensive addiction but it pales in comparison to the cost of others, so I'm happy. But don't cruise solely to achieve a loyalty level. Like most things in life, it's the journey, not the destination that is most important.

BTW..on a recent cruise I had someone tell me that I looked like I was on my first cruise..because #1 I was dressed up and #2 I was acting like it...IOW..I was enjoying myself What...?????

Since when was that a requirement? btw- if status isn't important why bother advertising it especially on a ship that has several hundred of others in the same category ? It's not a requirement. But it does have a pin on the end of it and a device to attach to the pin. Should I put it in the drawer with all my other pins from Carnival? I put it on my ball cap that I wear when I walk. There's 2 initials on my ball cap "SD." People ask what the SD stands for and I tell them "***** Disturber." Actually, I purchased it in San Diego when we stopped there on a coastal cruise. I don't take myself that seriously. I enjoy a good joke and a prank now and then.:D Edited May 14, 2016 by elliair Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
