cruiselover** Posted January 5, 2009 #1 Share Posted January 5, 2009 I am hoping that since some of you Carnival cruisers are back from vacation, you can let us know if the Platinum guests are getting a new gift for 2009. I received the tote bag in 2007 and the thermos in 2008, and am wondering what is being given out in 2009. I can't wait 'til my next cruise in April! Thanks in advance from all you fellow Platinum cruisers! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bp traveler Posted January 5, 2009 #3 Share Posted January 5, 2009 Just back from the 12/27 to 1/3 sailing on the Splendor and I am sad to say that it is still the thermos!! We just end up leaving them in the room - we have enought of them and plus they sort of leak! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Litewait Posted January 5, 2009 #4 Share Posted January 5, 2009 We got off the cruise on Jan. 2nd and I got the Thermos. Maybe they aren't changing yet?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luluwa Posted January 5, 2009 #8 Share Posted January 5, 2009 Returned from the Ecstasy New Years Cruise on 1-1-09 and it's the silver thermos. No complaints, it didn't cost me anything and if I don't need it I can always give it as a cruise gift to a friend or family member. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

D4 Posted January 6, 2009 #12 Share Posted January 6, 2009 They'll probably exhaust their Thermos inventory before giving out a new gift. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spikester Posted January 6, 2009 #14 Share Posted January 6, 2009 I would love a bag. They were very cute. I think a nice platinum beach TOWEL would be great. Or drink coupons. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maxax Posted January 6, 2009 #16 Share Posted January 6, 2009 Two words...."Priority Embarkation"...only perk we need to go for Platinum; however, in the end...any and all perks would be great...but the embarkation thing is the best to us!

scperk Posted February 14, 2009 #24 Share Posted February 14, 2009 The thermos is a lot better than I thought it would be...It holds about two cups and if you pre-heat it with hot water from the sink before you use it it does a great job keeping coffee hot....It looks like we will get 4 more in a couple of weeks......:).......Dennis Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elaine515 Posted February 14, 2009 #25 Share Posted February 14, 2009 I also love the thermos and have never had a leaking problem :) ... Make my coffee every morning and find that it is still hot hours later BUT... enough is enough... I don't need/want anymore... Please change the gift prior to my March 29th Valor sailing........... PLEEEEEEEEEEEASE !!! I know we had a thread on this a couple of months ago and I even called Customer Service and gave them a suggested list so hopefully they are working on changing the gift. I was told that it would be something with the Carnival name/logo on it like the tote bag and thermos both have/had... We'll just have to wait and see... Better sooner than later..
