Do you do that, or does the nurse? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would prefer to "turn" on a smaller ship...but have no idea when it will actually happen...if ever. 😞 Right now, if nothing else cancelled...it would be Freedom in January, which was not my original choice (that was supposed to be last May on Grandeur). But I am not holding my breath...I don't look good in shades of blue. 😮😉 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frustrating for us all. 😞 The biggest hurt will be when RCI cancels our big Aussie adventure (which we expect to see announced very soon) and had planned for so long. Was to be a big bucket list cross off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
firefly333 Posted October 26, 2020 #420 Share Posted October 26, 2020 I'm bad. I didnt know how many pts it took to turn diamond or when I did and dont remember getting a pin or anything for it. Tbh I just learned in this thread it takes 700 to hit pinnacle. No wonder that guy I meet with a name tag was so proud. I've learned a lot during covid sitting here sheltering in place. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We turned P on the first leg of a B3B (3/4/3 night) on Enchantment. No top tier party on that ship so no ceremony. We had several friends who happened to be on board and hoped to celebrate with us but no ceremony, cake flowers etc. Really all we wanted was the photo. The LA told us that since we were B2B they would recognize the pinnacle status on the next leg at the Captain’s welcome that they hold on the 4 night. Then we could get the photo. Or we could stage a photo with the captain. We got the photo op. (No cake, no flowers etc.,.... but that was ok). We love the photo. All ships handle it differently. We knew there was no top tier on the three night but one of our friends suggested a small gathering maybe in Schooner bar or bridge. They spoke to the LA but she declined. Fast forward a few weeks and the stratum in delivered but Caribbean is misspelled! They sent a new corrected version. m Edited October 26, 2020 by cruisegirl1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

suzyluvs2cruise Posted October 26, 2020 #425 Share Posted October 26, 2020 (edited) When ships return to sailing will there even be a Top Tier party? In the beginning I'm sure there won't be and I also don't think you'll see Officers out and about mingling like they've done in the past. I do hope that when cruising is able to resume that the first cruises go well so more ships, with more passengers, can once again sail the high seas.
