Carla in Texas 61 Posted May 6, 2022 #1 Share Posted May 6, 2022 I am so sorry, I've searched and can't find this. Does carnival still give Platinum and Diamond members a special logo gift? We've recd blue tooth speakers, Tervis tumblers etc. Thank you in advance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nlktx49 Posted May 6, 2022 #2 Share Posted May 6, 2022 Yes, Platinum members get a special gift. Right now it's a a flexible thing you can wrap around a can like a coozie, plus a pin with the ship's name and Platinum on it. Nothing like it used to be. And you have to go to Pixels to pick these up, and go to a bar to pick up your large bottle of water. Plus you no longer get priority boarding. Or any kind of special treatment just because you're Platinum or Diamond. Oh, yeah, Guest Services has a special Platinum and Diamond line to register your complaints so you can be treated in a dismissive manner more quickly than the other passengers, at least on the Dream. 2 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest BasicSailor Posted May 6, 2022 #4 Share Posted May 6, 2022 (edited) I asked my Platinum friend if he received his Will Smith special yet. It made for a nice Koozie chuckle 🤣 Edited May 6, 2022 by BasicSailor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wikoffclan Posted May 7, 2022 #6 Share Posted May 7, 2022 Actually had "Priority boarding" for the first time on 3/3/22 with DH when he flashed his cane. No Platinum priority boarding in NOLA. The Platinum "gift" was a "Photo Album". It will be in my next yard sale. The "koozie" is much more useful. BTW - we showed up for "Priority Embarkation". No one else did.

They give you some junk in order to be able to say you got a gift, but plastic luggage tags are nothing like blue tooth speakers or Tervis tumblers. Five cruises since reopening and five plastic luggage tags for each of us. I know; it is crass of me to notice. And in truth we have already stocked our house and our three sons' houses with Carnival tumblers so the lack of continuing that tradition is not missed by us. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

princess76021 Posted May 7, 2022 #12 Share Posted May 7, 2022 We had one on the dream on the March 26th sailing Hugs 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bostwick girl Posted May 7, 2022 #13 Share Posted May 7, 2022 It’s called a Platinum and Diamond Reunion. We had one on all 6 cruises since August. Free drinks of your choice, lasted about an hour. Usually on the last sea day. These were on Magic and Spirit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moviela Posted May 7, 2022 #14 Share Posted May 7, 2022 I like the spring loaded can cozy. It will adjust to smaller and larger than 12 oz drink cans, it packs flat, and can be used as a mouse pad in a pinch. I don't know why, but we have received a nice gift on every sailing from blue card on. Favorites are the speaker, headphones, wood box stationary kit, Teves cups, blanket, and all time favorite an automatic night light. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All you drink for an hour, but they eliminated the small finger foods/appetizers. Also, no contests to win prizes either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
