LorraineP Posted January 10, 2022 #1 Share Posted January 10, 2022 If both my DH & myself turn pinnacle do each of us get a free cruise. We both have done all cruises together. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

truffles2 Posted January 10, 2022 #7 Share Posted January 10, 2022 Each person who acquires 700 points gets the free cruise….one per person. What seems to be the confusion here? If there are two of you in the same cabin and you both reach 700 at the same time, then each of you gets the free cruise. If, as a couple, you reach 700 at different times, you get the free cruise at the time you reach 700. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lovelife Posted January 10, 2022 #8 Share Posted January 10, 2022 Yikes, we've only gotten one free cruise for two at 700 and 1050. I wish we each got one! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LorraineP Posted January 10, 2022 Author #9 Share Posted January 10, 2022 Has anyone in the past turned pinnacle on a cruise & received some benefits on that cruise. We will be turning pinnacle one day into the second leg of a B2B. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you both chose to sail solo on a free Pinnacle cruise, then you both would have a "free" cruise. However, if you sail the free cruise together then you are both using your free cruise allotment. I'm wondering if a couple could book separate cabins on the same ship, same voyage using their individual free cruise? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lovelife Posted January 10, 2022 #14 Share Posted January 10, 2022 I just called C&A to confirm. Was advised the one certificate you receive is per relationship/couple and provides one free cruise for two. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SherriZ366 Posted January 11, 2022 #15 Share Posted January 11, 2022 What type of room is awarded for the Pinnacle Free Cruise (at 700 cruise credits) ? We would probably upgrade to a JS or higher. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We would probably upgrade to a JS or higher. They tell you it's a balcony, but it can be issued as a $2,400 certificate toward any cruise. Solos get the same amount. My notes from my discussion with the C&A D+ Desk at RCCL: If certificate is used, no FCC for difference if cruised applied to is less than the cert value Balcony discount cannot be applied; no WOW, instant savings, or “cash off” promos Single supplement DP340, senior, and resident discounts are OK Pinnacle cert cannot be used for port fees or tips, so that amount can be paid as an initial deposit Gift certs can be used for tips via obc Edited January 11, 2022 by pcur 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't they just change my status on the cruise after I earned it and I start getting the benefits on the next one? I assumed they would just email or mail a certificate for the free cruise. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The LA will get with you to ask how you want to be announced at recognition ceremony (DH goes by his nickname, not legal name). She/he then has you sign a paper showing how you want your pins to read (I only wanted first name, DH wanted his nickname). Plus how you want your free cruise certificate to read (using our legal names there). LA has you sign this paper. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
