And I gave away the rarest block there is. The 50th Bday block given to Pinnacles on the last President Cruise. Full disclosure, we were given two😉 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are also booked on the TA one from New York to Southampton in April, but like last one, I will be most surprised if this happens. I expect the first one we can actually board is the TA from Southampton to Miami end of next year. I'm on the April cruise also. Lots of hope but reality is that it is probably not going to happen.

I usually don't bother with it anymore. I just assume x amount will be taken off of the price due to my level. On 10/24/2020 at 5:01 PM, Milwaukee Eight said: I don’t think MB has an idea of the C&A levels except Pinnacle. He and his family were in an OS just a couple cabins down from us on Freedom Presidents Cruise so we saw him in the hallway many times. On this cruise, only people who had access to DL was Pinnacle’s. CL was still open to Suites, D+, and P’s. Lots of complaining regarding the limited access to the DL.

Maybe RCCL could create virtual cruises - no masks required, sunbathing or otherwise - lounge experience with wine delivered to your home - the latest shows broadcast over the internet - no chair hogs - virtual food menus - double points (of course). That's all and good, but who's going to do the cooking and cleaning or will it be virtual food also? 😃🛳 Edited October 27, 2020 by ReneeFLL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We only visited once since we had access to the CL. It was a nice setup and didn’t hear of any complaints from the Diamonds. D+ had the VCL as a HH meeting place. They were not allowed in the DL. DL only for Pinnacles. We tried to go up to the VCL for a drink and view out the windows but we’re not permitted. Royal had someone checking SeaPass cards. We were full Suite and were not allowed in. The CL ran as normal. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Virtual cruise...Love it! 🙂 Assuming my January Freedom cruise is cancelled...I will once again have to cancel flights. The ones I have booked to go to PR, are already credit voucher used for cancelled Baltimore Grandeur flights.

Just keep smiling and booking and canceling and booking and canceling............................................ LOL...yeah. But I have stopped booking air flights...too depressing to think of cancelling them...over and over again. 😞 My return flight from the doomed Allure TA that would have been Miami back to Orlando was a credit, as were both sets of flights to Baltimore (one of which we both were supposed to be on Grandeur together)..are credits from both Delta and AA. Fortunately, AA to Barcelona messed around with my flights from Orlando, turning it into a 3 leg from a 2 leg...was awarded refund back to Credit Card. Now it looks like United has messed up my soon to be doomed one way flight to Sydney..so am very relieved to know will get full refund on that one when I am ready. Just waiting for RCI to get their heads out of their butts to officially cancel the rest of the Australian 2020/2021 season. 😮 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When reserving, a valid Crown & Anchor Society membership number must be included in the reservation. And what ends in 11 hours Offer applies to new, individual and named group bookings confirmed at prevailing rates, as well as existing bookings for Eligible Sailings made prior to October 19, 2020. Save up to $400 Extension applies to new bookings made between 10/26 – 10/27/20. Save up to $400 Extension offers up to $400 USD instant savings for select sailings departing on or after 11/30/20.

mugtech Posted October 27, 2020 #975 Share Posted October 27, 2020 Won't be booking a cruise until there are some successful cruises completed, so I don't bother with the exact details of the offers I won't be using. We have $376 in FCC which must be used by 12/31/21, but doubt we will be booking anything this year. Double points would be nice, but with 53 now the difference will mean little to us. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
