carol louise Posted September 2, 2019 #1 Share Posted September 2, 2019 I am currently a Gold-status past Carnival cruiser within 3 points of Platinum. I am booked on a 9-day cruise next year. Is it true I will have the perks of Platinum on that cruise? How will that work? Will we have priority boarding? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GranysT Posted September 2, 2019 #2 Share Posted September 2, 2019 Yes, you will be Platinum at the start of your next cruise. When you print your docs, they should say Platinum, which will let you do the priority boarding. Enjoy the perks, and your cruise. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chervil Posted September 2, 2019 #4 Share Posted September 2, 2019 Congratulations! We go Gold on our cruise next month, similar situation. Currently have 21 days, so this will push us into Gold halfway through! Cupcake is looking forward to the pin (it really is the little things, you know!) Have fun and enjoy your perks!

Look on your luggage tags, they also will say priority. Enjoy the priority boarding and all the other perks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carol louise Posted September 2, 2019 Author #6 Share Posted September 2, 2019 Thanks, all, for the good news and wishes, and congrats, Chervil! One more thing: my new husband (married last year) is cruising with me, and has no current status with Carnival. He will enjoy the same perks too as my cabin-mate, right?

He will not be invited to the Platinum/Diamond Reunion. Of course, the louts will tell you not being invited doesn't matter. He can't use the Priority line at GS without you. He won't get the gift or the free drink. You can put his clothes in your laundry bag. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He rarely drinks, basically is just happy to be cruising with me (not caring about a gift), we would hope not to need GS—just glad he can board with me and get some clothes washed! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

According to the Carnival Website:If a guest is sharing a cabin with another guest in a different level (e.g. a Platinum and a Gold), how will benefits apply to the stateroom?Benefits are meant to recognize individual members and are therefore not transferable to travel companions.https://help.carnival.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/2938/kw/VIFP However most people we have talked to, they were given the same recognition as far as boarding, etc. Our adult daughter shared a suite with us last cruise, and it was her first cruise (so she had a blue card) She got the "perks" of being a Red level (free bottle of water) so I am sure he will get to share at least some of the benefits. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm a pushover for the little things. I'm excited to be turning platinum on my December cruise. I've been following the threads about the platinum gift as if it were the most important thing in my life!!!😊 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
naxer Posted September 2, 2019 #11 Share Posted September 2, 2019 I just booked the cruise I turn Platinum on a couple weeks ago--Nov. 2020. I hope they don't change the amount of cruise days needed between now and then. But that's a long way off for that not to happen, considering so many of us are turning Platinum.

simplelife Posted September 2, 2019 #12 Share Posted September 2, 2019 If you will have enough days to change levels during a cruise, your new benefits begin at the start of that cruise. 🙂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
