When should we expect to receive the crystal block? Pat Um, you should have gotten it on Liberty. I guess you can call C&A and request one.

Honestly, it slipped my mind until I saw this thread again. But I wish I had remembered - lots easier to get straightened out on the ship than via phone, especially during the holiday season.

Wine-O Posted November 26, 2018 #330 Share Posted November 26, 2018 What do you do with the block if you earn one on an Eastbound TA and have to fly back to the U.S. with the luggage weight constraints? Will they ship it back for you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clarea Posted November 26, 2018 #332 Share Posted November 26, 2018 I have also learned to take the block out of the carry-on and put it alone in one of the small tubs going into the x-ray scanner. Saves time this way because there's a very good chance they will want to inspect it. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oceanlover07 Posted November 26, 2018 #333 Share Posted November 26, 2018 Good advice Clarea! I got stopped at airport and it was taken out of my hand luggage and inspected. On reaching a milestone it would be so nice to receive block without having to ask and chase it! This happened to us. Also on our last cruise we didn’t receive our Top Tier invitation (along with others) and we all missed out! :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hope they forget about you on the ship so then you can call C&A and have them ship it to you. P.S. The block is only 3 lbs.

I did call C&A yesterday and a very polite woman answered and, (after a bit of a hold while she checked on something), they will mail us the block. She also mentioned that I should have gotten it on the ship. If we're still cruising at 210 I'll do better😀. At least seeing this thread jogged my aged memory!

Rare John&LaLa Posted November 27, 2018 #337 Share Posted November 27, 2018 So did anyone ever check and see if their Enchantment block has a sky bridge? Pretty sure all my Vision blocks look the same Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Banana Benders Posted December 1, 2018 #338 Share Posted December 1, 2018 We got a block on Legend OTS without reaching 140 point We cruised last 3 B2B Sydney - Barcelona before being sold. All Diamonds and above were present Blocks on the last Leg. This topped off one of the best cruise ever, was a party for all crew and guest all the way from Sydney. Is amazing how we keep running in people of that cruise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hey Bob- would you believe back then I gave back my Monarch second block (The one given on the last weekend cruise) as I already had a Monarch block. It never occurred to me to trade and who knew there would be an active open market for the blocks. Marci Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marci I traded for a Sovereign block (thanks Kathy) which was great since she was gone from the fleet and I had no chance to get one of those the normal way.

vistapat Posted December 2, 2018 #345 Share Posted December 2, 2018 A quick update on the block we didn't receive on Liberty on our just-finished cruise. I called C&A on Monday afternoon, which was after 5:00 in Florida, and spoke to a very nice woman. She offered to ship it to us, and we received the block yesterday, Saturday of the same week. It's lovely and we're happy to have it. So....thanks, and well done, Crown and Anchor. Pat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So was a bit of a bonus, plus we purchase a few of her port of call plaques. was a special cruise for all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those port of call plaques would have been special, I wish they would have offered those on Monarch. Perhaps the officers and crew were given a shot. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wilson Posted December 3, 2018 #348 Share Posted December 3, 2018 Our first block was on Harmony. After completing our Dec Freedom sailing we will be at 208.
