runner2013 Posted June 2 #1 Share Posted June 2 Hi all, Longtime cruiser of several other lines but a newbie to MSC. I've checked the fine print for the Voyagers Club and can't find what I'm looking for so I thought I'd try here. DH and I will be sailing on our first cruise with MSC in October. After that if he or I sail alone would the other of us also get the points because we're married or just the person who was actually on board? (Royal and Celebrity award the points to both since we're married, and I was hoping MSC did the same.) Also, are you awarded 'double points" as a solo cruiser, or no? TIA for the help Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hawkeyetlse Posted June 2 #2 Share Posted June 2 You have to sail to get points. Solo cruisers get points for one person, not double. They have no idea if you're married or who you're married to. And even if they did, if that person is not on board, they don't exist. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think you're mistaken. I sailed once on Celebrity without my wife. I got my points but my wife didn't get points. She wasn't there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On Royal, a married couple in a household are the same level as the one with the higher number of points. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are absolutely correct. When my husband and I got married he was given my emerald status immediately. All it took was a phone call to C&A society.

Guess I'll have to try a solo on them and see what happens:) Edited June 4 by runner2013 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare JamieLogical Posted June 5 #8 Share Posted June 5 I will also point out that there seems to be no rhyme or reason as to how points earned from onboard spend and casino spending get awarded to your individual accounts. While the points for the actual room/experience do seem to be accurately applied to both spouses' accounts, it unclear how the rest of the points get allocated. My husband just reached Diamond on our last cruise, meanwhile I have enough points to be Diamond three times over! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
