ian09 Posted April 29, 2023 #1 Share Posted April 29, 2023 I'll be sailing on a 9 day cruise on Thursday and I'm one cruise point away from saying bye bye to Emerald and hello to Diamond. Any way to take advantage of this during my upcoming cruise or do I need to wait until the next one? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruisegirl1 Posted April 29, 2023 #2 Share Posted April 29, 2023 (edited) You will need to wait until your next cruise to enjoy D benefits. Edited April 29, 2023 by cruisegirl1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Starry Eyes Posted April 29, 2023 #3 Share Posted April 29, 2023 (edited) You are not rewarded points until after you complete your cruise (not day by day), so you will not be Diamond or enjoy any Diamond benefits this cruise. Next time Edited April 29, 2023 by Starry Eyes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BND Posted April 29, 2023 #4 Share Posted April 29, 2023 (edited) It's based on completed cruises, not current ones. There was a time when people would come on here and report that the LA gave them the benefits during the cruise, but that hasn't happened for a while. Mainly because there are so many turning a status each cruise. There used to be a very few on each cruise. The reality is, they want you to go on another cruise to enjoy your new status, which makes perfect business sense.

ARandomTraveler Posted April 29, 2023 #5 Share Posted April 29, 2023 I would have booked a quick 3 day beforehand in order to get the free drinks on the 9 day. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

While it is very late now, jump on a quick cruise this weekend so that you get the diamond benefits on your long cruise. Something we would have done earlier.

dad son team Posted April 29, 2023 #8 Share Posted April 29, 2023 I just ticked over to Diamond on Day 4 of my cruise last week and nothing changed. I asked if I could get lounge access and they said no. Meanies 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course, we also did an even cheaper 4-nighter (booked during a GGG sale) as recently as October before prices went cuckoo. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
