topspin1267 Posted June 21, 2016 #1 Share Posted June 21, 2016 We have just completed a cruise raising us to 74 days (1 day from Platinum) and are booked for another cruise in September. Our days have updated but our September docs still show gold I had read other threads (and it happened for us when we went gold) that since we'll turn platinum on the cruise we should show platinum on our docs. I should note we had already filled out our online checkin docs before the June cruise. Any ideas when or if it'll change to platinum on docs?

Micahs Grandad Posted June 21, 2016 #2 Share Posted June 21, 2016 Would think it will change in a few weeks when they adjust their records but definitely check a week or so before your cruise to make sure your docs show priority. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NurseMarla Posted June 21, 2016 #3 Share Posted June 21, 2016 My husband & I were talking about this the other day. After our December cruise, we will be one day away from gold. Was wondering if we would show as gold on our May cruise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
poobears Posted June 21, 2016 #4 Share Posted June 21, 2016 When you get to port in Sept your boarding pass will print out in Platinum even if your docs were still printed in Gold. The system will automatically update at port. Occasionally it glitches and you have to go to the CS desk onboard but that's rare. Once at port everything should be updated in the system.

Princess_K Posted June 21, 2016 #6 Share Posted June 21, 2016 I currently have (only) 22 days .. I completed my last cruise in May. My next one is not until June 2017. My cruise docs show me as gold... then I will only have 48 days to platinum... guess I need to book more cruises! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
evandbob Posted June 21, 2016 #7 Share Posted June 21, 2016 I currently have 196 sea days on 27 cruises with Carnival. I printed my boarding pass for this w/e's Conquest cruise several months ago, and it says Diamond. The change will be noted on your cruise docs. Enjoy the priority boarding and 3 bags of free laundry, I certainly did! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks Sent from my iPhone using Forums mobile app When I finished my cruise in March I had 71 days. After that cruise had been credited I checked our docs for our next cruise and it said priority and that I am Platinum. Our next cruise is an 8 day cruise so it puts us over 75 days. If your VIFP account shows 74 days but your documents don't show you being platinum I would call Carnival and see what is going on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dmdiver Posted June 21, 2016 #9 Share Posted June 21, 2016 I think it's a timing issue. We turned platinum during our last cruise. It seems that when we first booked, it said gold, but at some point, it changed to platinum. I know our docs & luggage tags showed the priority status. It could also depend on where you are in your account - maybe only docs show platinum, but other areas show actual current status. I sure did enjoy the priority boarding and free laundry!
