Al least that's how I see it. That's not how the CC host saw it. They only looked at the total - they didn't care where the points came from. I would say that if your status changes for any reason in the middle of a cruise, they'll update it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare cruisestitch Posted September 14, 2022 Author #5427 Share Posted September 14, 2022 In general, no they won’t update you in the middle of the cruise. If you think about it, everyone reaches their threshold of points in the middle of a cruise. Or nearly everyone. The odd person might hit the right number of points on the last day of a cruise but the vast majority get to the required number of days/categories in the middle of a cruise. That’s why they don’t change your tier level until the cruise is over. The back to back passengers who achieve the new tier at the end of cruise one just don’t have to wait the usual 7-10 days for the points to be added to their account. The Captain’s Club host can manually advance them to the new tier for their second cruise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your's was an unusual situation, in that when they looked at the CC points for the first cruise, you were still short, and they couldn't verify the double points (let's not go down that road) until they actually posted. But it was for cruised points, not power up points. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But if you get points from some other source like Power Up and your account shows the new status, I guarantee with 100% certainty that they will upgrade your status onboard. 14 minutes ago, abbydancer said: But it was for cruised points, not power up points.

If the points are added and your status shows Elite then you won’t have to wait. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare gogo65 Posted September 14, 2022 #5432 Share Posted September 14, 2022 I’ve just received the power up point email (I’m in Australia), to do a quiz but it expires on the 22nd august… no link for a webinar, just the same email from last month 🤷♀️ 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was for 10 PUPs & when I tried to take the quiz it said it had already closed! To add insult to injury I haven’t received my 2 points yet from last month’s PUPS, sigh.

the mice Posted September 14, 2022 #5444 Share Posted September 14, 2022 Thanks for the link. We did Australia-NZ on Solstice B2B with pre-cruise time in Melbourne and Sydney and post-cruise in Auckland back in October-November 2019, the last big trip pre-Covid. Wonderful memories. I'd love to go back and see more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare PinkSandGirl Posted September 15, 2022 #5447 Share Posted September 15, 2022 I received 1 Point for the August Australia Quiz. Also, after calling 4 times, the June Quiz Point has finally been added. 😉 Yay!!! I did more work to get that 1 Point added than I did to take the quiz. 😂 🍹 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The June Quiz is the first time I didn't receive what I should have. Each time I called, only a few minutes wait time and friendly people. I said I have screenshots to e-mail and they said no but took notes of everything and to wait for however many days they would say. I did that three times, the third time the lady said she would call me back when taken care of in a few days. My 4th call, the gentleman let me e-mail the screenshots and kept me on the phone to make sure they came through and gave me a case #. That time seemed to do the trick, since the point finally arrived. 😉 🍹 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems something went sideways on that one. I didn't bother to call but if it kept happening I might be inclined to chase it. I just got my point for August. Since the PUP began in 2020 I have been rewarded 97 Club Points so I'm a happy camper 🙂 Edited September 15, 2022 by poffles 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
