Captain Club Status match

[sixpackeddie]

I understand MSC cruises will match Captain Club Status as well as RCL. Will any other lines match CC status?

No

I'd be asking on those boards.

MSC is the only line doing status match.

Virgin Voyages will also do status match.

Virgin doesn’t precisely do a status match.  Elite, Elite Plus and zenith all get the same benefit.

From reading what VV is doing, it seems that it’s just allowing upper tiers to join their new program prior to actually sailing them. I am interested though.

Correct.   It isn't a status match.

While not an apples to apples cruise line.   Ponant just launched a Status Match program.

MSC is quite quirky. They will status match, but you will have to sail every 3 years to maintain your status level. That goes for everyone, not just those with status match. So their status levels will have an expiration date of 3 years after your last sailing.

Thank you.  Ponant is not on my radar at all.

That is also true for Celebrity and RCCL status match.

RCCL Diamond, Diamond+ and Pinnacle  are matched to Celebrity Elite level only.

Celebrity E, E+ and Z matched to Diamond level only.

A status upgrade before sailing with them will be good enough for us. 😄

Thank you for all the replies. It’s really appreciated!

Norwegian will not status match either.
