I'm not sure the issue is that they are not doing the blocks but that they didn't have any yet. It would be odd to have one ship in the fleet without blocks. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps they didn't order any because they were discontinuing the programme before the ship started sailing, then we all got upset and they had to reverse the decision so someone has got to get some made quickly! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they don't have them they will mail it to you. Adventure didn't have on for me and RCI did ship one to me. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are not any Odyssey blocks on the ship right now, but they are on order. Because they were planning to stop the blocks, blocks were never ordered for the Odyssey. Odyssey will have blocks just like the other ships. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare little britain Posted July 8, 2022 #208 Share Posted July 8, 2022 I’m waiting on Voyager from April and Wonder from May. Its odd that there were none on Voyager since I was on her first sailing back after the interlude … wonder what happened to all the stock of blocks?

lovelife Posted July 8, 2022 #212 Share Posted July 8, 2022 I'm still waiting on three blocks and a stratum from March, April, and May! I was told the one earned March 13 wasn't ordered until April 11. 😦 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare John&LaLa Posted July 9, 2022 #214 Share Posted July 9, 2022 (edited) On 7/26/2021 at 11:17 AM, WeMissSeaView said: I believe that his idea was to allow someone to request a block from a different ship then the ship that they are sailing on when they reach the milestone. Example: You earn a block on the Oasis but you already have an Oasis block. You have sailed on the Freedom but do not have a Freedom block. His idea was to allow you to request a Freedom block instead of receiving an extra Oasis block. But that's just a passenger wish list. Doubt ot would happen. The idea is to commemorate the actual sailing Edited July 9, 2022 by John&LaLa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BND Posted July 9, 2022 #215 Share Posted July 9, 2022 I received my EN block a couple of days ago from our 2 Apr cruise. They seem to be sending them out now on a regular basis. The title of this thread is misleading. They may have paused them, but they weren't discontinued. There's another thread on the topic with lots of updates. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare OCSC Mike Posted July 9, 2022 #221 Share Posted July 9, 2022 Good to hear they're making progress, however slowly. I'm waiting for my first one ever but it was from a Harmony 5/29 sailing so won't be here anytime soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just called yesterday to request a Jewel block be sent me from a cruise I disembarked earlier this month. The agent told me to call back at the end of next month if I haven't received it yet and there should be a tracking number available. I wonder if RCI is expecting faster turn-around or if the agent was just kicking the can down the road a bit. I was told the Pinnacle package/stratum would take longer.
