icat2000 Posted March 31, 2013 #1 Share Posted March 31, 2013 Princess Captain Circle: MEDALLION In one of my future cruise bookings for September it says that above. What is that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
strummer Posted March 31, 2013 #2 Share Posted March 31, 2013 I have just used the search engine to look for this as I had just noticed it on my cruise personlizer - are they changing the tiers? On my princess it still says Gold so maybe its a glitch? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On my princess it still says Gold so maybe its a glitch? It shows Gold for my next cruise. But the ones after say Medallion. Those ones after is were I would be for Plantium level. Maybe they putting a new tier in?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mara4166 Posted March 31, 2013 #4 Share Posted March 31, 2013 Very strange. On personalizer I am listed as gold, but for our next cruise in November, both my DH and I are listed as Medallion. I only have 3 previous cruises and this will be DH 2nd cruise. If it is a new level, it does not take much to get there, unless they are raising the bar for gold. I notice everyone posting so far is outside the US. Maybe this is a new UK and Australia level??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CCFC Posted March 31, 2013 #6 Share Posted March 31, 2013 We are going away at the end of May and my travelling companion is showing Gold (2nd cruise) and I am still showing Platinum (14 cruises). Maybe its a tier between those two? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paul929207 Posted March 31, 2013 #7 Share Posted March 31, 2013 Just checked my nearest and farthest booked cruises. Both show Elite. We will go over 500 days on our next cruise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WendyG Posted March 31, 2013 #8 Share Posted March 31, 2013 I was wondering what Medallion was as well! I will be elite after my next sailing (in 27 days) :) but was looking at future cruises booked and my daughter is listed as Medallion on our cruise next Feb. She's been on 3 previous Princess cruises...never heard of Medallion before! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
strummer Posted March 31, 2013 #9 Share Posted March 31, 2013 My next cruise will be my 4th on princess and states medallion. Not being rude but I am not asking if your status still says elite etc I am only interested about those that say medallion and what number of cruises they have been on. Thanks :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kenswing Posted March 31, 2013 #12 Share Posted March 31, 2013 We also have 3 cruises and show Medallion for our fourth.. I hope they've just renamed Gold and aren't raising the requirements to get to Platinum and Elite.. Or adding a level in between.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vicrea123 Posted March 31, 2013 #13 Share Posted March 31, 2013 Don't quote me I think it reflects that you are on your way to the next level. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
strummer Posted March 31, 2013 #14 Share Posted March 31, 2013 Don't quote me I think it reflects that you are on your way to the next level. Makes some sense but it has never shown this before today and I am quite sad and have checked my personlizer practically everyday since booking a year ago :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Working 2 Cruise Posted March 31, 2013 #15 Share Posted March 31, 2013 Very interesting! We are going on our 7th Princess cruise and my personalizer shows Platinum... As it should. Maybe the Medallion status is another tier added between the third and fifth cruise? Does not make much sense though... You would think that Princess wouid be adding a new tier to the elite level...

shastatroy Posted March 31, 2013 #16 Share Posted March 31, 2013 I am 4 days shy of Platinum and will be cruising Alaska in June. Where it said "Gold" is now blank. Weird Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pam in CA Posted March 31, 2013 #17 Share Posted March 31, 2013 Anyone else think that this could be a glitch in the system and the default for the field is "Medallion"? Does Princess refer to the color tiers as medallions? Has anyone posted the question on the Princess FB page as to the meaning? I'm hesitant to do so since I don't see it.

Astro Flyer Posted March 31, 2013 #18 Share Posted March 31, 2013 Last night they were doing "maintenance" on their site & wonder if they created some problems instead. Their site show no changes to Captain's Circles levels. I would think if levels were truly changing they would have a news release about it. I guess only time will tell if a mistake was made or if they accidentally made some changes before publicly announcing them. :confused: Just noticed that while composing my reply Pam mentioned that it's possibly a glitch in their system which I agree is the probable cause.

melody hounddog Posted March 31, 2013 #19 Share Posted March 31, 2013 Just got off the phone with Princess. 1 Blue 2 Gold 3-4 Medallion 5-14 Plat. 15+ Elite Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

melody hounddog Posted March 31, 2013 #21 Share Posted March 31, 2013 And what does Medallion mean? Are there any perks? I didn't ask. I logged on and found they had me as blue!!! My phone number changed so they weren't giving me credit for my past cruises. Weird. Everything is cleared up now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
strummer Posted March 31, 2013 #22 Share Posted March 31, 2013 Just got off the phone with Princess. 1 Blue 2 Gold 3-4 Medallion 5-14 Plat. 15+ Elite After Pams suggestion I had just posted on the Facebook site but thanks for letting us know :) Any idea WHY?? It seems a strange extra tier to put in, you would've thought that they would have put in a super elite. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
melody hounddog Posted March 31, 2013 #23 Share Posted March 31, 2013 I just got off the phone with Princess. They added a new tier to their Captain's Circle: 1 - Blue 2 - Gold 3-4 Medallion 5-14 Platinum 15+ Elite Not sure what this means. That's what the rep told me.:confused: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sherryf Posted March 31, 2013 #25 Share Posted March 31, 2013 So what does Medallion get me? I'll be taking my 5th Princess cruise this summer, and Gold doesn't really get me much, except an invite to a party with watered down cocktails. Wondering if I can expect anything more/less with this new category. Just checked my personalizer and I do show up as Medallion now, but when I look at the member benefits page, it's not listed yet. Next year, Platinum! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
