Lapel Pin

[Pratique]

My wife puts all of her pins on her lanyard (which she hardly ever wears lol). I haven't seen anyone else do this.

That's fairly common, male and female

I see that at Disney with the lanyards and pins.  But they are not earned, they are purchased. 😄

What is the purpose of them? Just to show your level or are the staff suppose to give you something extra?

Nothing extra from the staff.

I completely disagree with that at the upper level.

 

Just my opinion

We never got our D+ pins and I have no idea where any of the others are. I think my husband may have worn his D pin once or twice on his lapel jacket. 😂

Lanyards could have its own thread. 
 

In my opinion

We used to work at WDW so that's where the idea came from, but I haven't seen anyone other than Pinnacles wear their loyalty pins on the ship.

They are just keepsakes.

Same purpose as wearing your team colors at a game, or wearing your John Deere green ball cap (Bob? 😉 )...it just shows you are member of a club.  It's all for fun.  

 

If you like wearing your pin...wear it!  If you don't...that is your choice.  There is no wrong or right...to wear or not to wear...that is the question.  😄  

 

What is silly and childish....are the pax that seem to have a mental problem with other pax that like to wear their pins...so what if they like wearing them?  Live and let live.  😉

Well - I like keepsakes.  Then again my husband will say that is bec I am a pack rat & keep everything!  🤷🏽‍♀️   For me:  I still want it - whether or not I will wear it.

I have mine pinned to my change purse, just a nice reminder of fun cruises.  

We did meet a man in the Diamond Lounge who wore his D+ pin every night.  He said it got him more recognition but we were all treated just as well!!

Correct. I'd bet most of us still have our pins from each tier level we've made. We don't wear ours but still have them and like it when we receive the new tier level pin. 

We never got a lapel pin ,very strange

On your next RC cruise go visit the LA. She/he will make sure you get your pin(s).

Yup, as I mentioned also.  LA will have big plastic baggies of them.  😉  

 

Wonder what they would do if we asked for our "DS" pin??  🤔🤣

We have cruised on 6 different cruise lines.In hindsight my thinking is that we probably should have stayed with one line.However,we had wonderful cruises on Cunard,Celebrity and HAL.

That’s a great idea to pin it to your change purse!  Can I ask you (and will you answer 😉) Is it a Royal change purse or just a generic one? Thanks for the tip 👍
