johnjen Posted July 23, 2019 #79 Share Posted July 23, 2019 (edited) This recent Vision cruise had a nice little platinum bonus: A BOGO wine or beer. That, believe it or not, made me feel special. We made emerald in the middle of this cruise. Edited July 23, 2019 by johnjen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fungirl28 Posted July 23, 2019 #80 Share Posted July 23, 2019 Congrats!!! I remember when I made Platinum, I felt like a superstar, lol. That was before Emerald existed and I knew that Diamond was a long way off. Enjoy your new perks! You'll level up in no time. I barely got comfortable as Emerald and now I am two points away from Diamond. I have a 3 day birthday cruise next month that will take care that😎. I don't know if I'll ever hit Diamond Plus and Pinnacle level is nothing but a pipe dream at this point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ours are still on the cardboard in my junk drawer I think. I was just joking about the pin. 😄 Though when I finally did see one...it is a pretty little piece of glass being green, over the clear glass on the Diamond pin. 😉 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It seems a small thing now, but at the time we were still quite new to cruising, and it meant more. And if anyone pooh-poohs, remember that like most things in life, there's little point in comparing your situation to that of others, since there will always be those who are "ahead of" or "behind" you. Just enjoy where YOU are! Any higher ups that attempt to damper someone's excitement about reaching a new level are probably the same ones that become obnoxious, loud mouth, staff abusing, bores when they gain entry to the lounges. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ryano Posted July 23, 2019 #91 Share Posted July 23, 2019 Congrats! Im 3 points away and will be Platinum after my upcoming Harmony cruise. I will probably never live to see Diamond because I switch back and forth between Carnival and RC but its a nice goal to set anyway :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarlboroBell Posted July 23, 2019 #92 Share Posted July 23, 2019 We're going to be Platinum after our cruise next month -- the biggest perk as far as I can see is the quicker boarding line! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know compared to others it is nothing and the platinum benefits aren't huge but we do not get to cruise very often so it feels like a big deal to me! Just wanted to share my excitement! Congratulations ! This will be our first cruise on Royal but we are loyal Celebrity cruisers. Imagine my delight when I signed up for the Crown and Anchor and found out I was already Platinum. It's the small pleasures in life that make us smile. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You don't become anything during a cruise. You only become something after the cruise when the points are added to your account. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was just trying to inject some humor into the situation. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
