pattibacon Posted August 5, 2021 #1 Share Posted August 5, 2021 I’m Elite Plus on Celebrity and have cruised a few times on RCCL. I know I’m only Diamond on RCCL but have several cruises scheduled on Royal. What are the points values on Royal? I still need a lot to get to D+ but hope to eventually get there. Have 2 long cruises booked next year in regular balcony cabins but booking the BIG suite in ‘24. It’ll just be 7 days but can’t find how many points I’ll get for each category. TIA.

beardedladies Posted August 5, 2021 #2 Share Posted August 5, 2021 It's a bit simpler than Celebrity - 1 point per night, with an extra point if in a suite and/or solo. No bonus points for the highest suites - you'll get the same in a junior as in the royal. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi @pattibacon, just to clarify, even though RCG matches your Elite Plus on Celebrity to make you Diamond on RCCL, you will still need 175 points on RCCL ‘books’ to make D+. Making you Diamond on RCCL will not automatically boost your points to 80 which is the minimum number to reach for Diamond. You say you have only cruised a few times with RCCL, so say you have 50 points, you would still need to earn another 125 points on RCCL to make D+, the reciprocal status match will not fast track you to D+ and bump you to 80 points on RCCL. Just making sure you understand what reciprocal matching between X and RCCL really means. Assume you have less than 80 points on RCCL, else why mention status match?

pattibacon Posted August 6, 2021 Author #8 Share Posted August 6, 2021 I have 49 on RCCL - know I need 175. But will be adding more the next couple of years. The b2b I’m on next year is 25 nights but don’t think we booked with the double points (😩)! Just thinking maybe I’ll do some Royal cruises with friends to eventually reach D+, although I’m perfectly happy with Elite+ on X.

pattibacon Posted August 6, 2021 Author #13 Share Posted August 6, 2021 That would be great. I’ll check with the TA, who happens to be a fellow cruiser. Even if we reserved it in 2020? I could def use 50 points! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You get 1 per night, plus 1for a suite. That is doubled, so you get 4 points per night. We have two cruises booked for next year in suites. We will go from Diamond to D+ with those two cruises. You would get the same number of points by booking solo inside cabins. 😄 A solo suite would be 1, plus 1 for suites, plus 1 for solo, equals 3. Doubles to 6 points per night.

Aquahound Posted August 7, 2021 #25 Share Posted August 7, 2021 Thought I'd ask my C&A question on this thread, if that's ok. It's been 7 years since I cruised RC, and I know a lot has changed. Does C&A still have offer member preferences ref our free gifts, upgrades, etc? I cannot find it anywhere on the website. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
