Default Latitudes questions

If we book a 3 or 4 day does that count towards your number of cruises? If you combine them into a 7 day, does it count as 2 cruises, 1 cruise or none at all?

Thanks,
Tony

Even a one day cruise counts towards Latitudes benefits.

As far as having a back to back 3 and 4 day on the Sky, I do not know if that counts as 1 7-day cruise or 2 separate cruises. Good question...maybe it how it is booked?

It is defined by the way it is booked. If the back to back is booked under one reservation number it will count as one cruise. if the 3 day is one reservation and the 4 day is another it will counts as 2. But, I assure you will pay more for 2 separate cruises rather than the back to back option.

The Latitudes benefits are not that great so as to spend more money just to get to upper levels of the program.

actually - Planner's Edge i am (hopefully) going on the dawn b2b this friday and it was faaaar cheaper to book them seperately. i wanted to book it as one (for ease on my part), but the price difference was about 800-1000 dollars

i'd have figured it would be the other way too

I have heard if you break up their b2b combination it could be cheaper. By taking the last half of their combination and the first half of the next is what I am guessing you are doing.

Always good to know the exceptions to the rule.
