jerseygirl3 Posted November 8, 2021 #1 Share Posted November 8, 2021 I know that if you booked a cruise prior to September 30, 2021, you get double points for all sailings through 12/31/22. But are the points you receive better based on interior vs ocean view vs balcony cabin? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Merion_Mom Posted November 8, 2021 #2 Share Posted November 8, 2021 interior, oceanview & balcony = 1 point per night if double occupancy. Double that to 2 during the promotion. junior suite and up = 2 points per night if double occupancy. Double that to 3 during the promotion. Solo points are higher, but I don't think that you are asking about them. 🙂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robtulipe Posted November 8, 2021 #3 Share Posted November 8, 2021 No. It's only if in a junior suite or higher that one gets double point on RC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DrProfessor Posted November 8, 2021 #5 Share Posted November 8, 2021 The double points promotion is double what you would have normally gotten for a cruise. For interior, ocean view and balconies (lower than Jr. Suite) you would have received 1 point per night on the cruise. For the promotion, you receive 2 points per night on the cruise. We got back from a 7-night on Allure a week ago (Oct 31) and this morning, I got 14 points (we were in an ocean-view balcony). To the OP's original question, there was no difference in points between interior, ocean view, and non-suite balconies before the promotion - all of them received 1 point per night. During the promotion, there is still no difference, you just double your points for the cruise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I worded my response badly. It should have been It's only if in a junior suite or higher that one gets extra normal points per night on RC cruises if one isn't solo in a normally double occupant cabin.

Plus 1 point per night if in any suite Plus 1 point per night in any double occupancy cabin when solo For the promotion, take what ever you would have earned normally and double that. So two people in a none suite would normally get 1 point per night, that doubles to 2. Two people in a suite, would normally be 2 points per night, it doubles to 4. Solo in a suite, would normally be 3 points per night, it doubles to 6. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shekim Posted November 9, 2021 #18 Share Posted November 9, 2021 I'm pretty sure I know the answer to this but I'm asking anyway. If it's a "free" cruise do you even get single points? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zebra36 Posted November 10, 2021 #21 Share Posted November 10, 2021 Piggybacking on this one. ? If a booked cruise is eligible for the double C&A points and a Royal-UP bid is successful would that affect the double points offer? Just thinking about different dates between transactions and not so much about type of cabins involved. ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You paid extra for the upgrade so why is it not based on the cabin you sail in? It isn't like the old days when you got an upgrade for free.

You'd have to ask RCI for the reasoning, but they'll likely tell you that's the way it is for "discounted" upgrades. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
