Look around at other cruise lines. I've been on 22 cruises. All Carnival. They don't offer me a darn thing Joe Schmo blue card can't get. And my next cruise is on NCL.

 

Yeah I hear you never thought I would switch but hearing the offer on a 3 way conversation did me in. I won’t feel guilty if I take off all the tips, but these people are going with us so we will just drink on their cheers package haha! Platinum means NOTHING!

But they got the same cabin as us. I just think it so wrong.  They are on same cruise, same room and paying 400 more dollars than us with the cheers package. We booked at the same time, same salesman.

My wife and I have cruised Carnival 14 Times, (Platinum) and recently booked a New Years Eve Cruise and got a Carnival Rep on the line with a 3 way call.  The friends we are traveling with have cruised Carnival 5 Times. We have the same room, adjoining, same cruise.  Our friends who have cruised 5 times were offered the cheers package for $400.00 for the cruise, yes 400 total for both of them, total of 200 each.  They were very happy.  Then when it was our turn, the cruisers with (Platinum?) 14 cruises, we were not offered that perk.  Said there was nothing they could do to get us the same offer our friends got.  I still cannot figure out how they can rationalize this, and they really cant explain it to me either.

It is very evident that they could care less that they have loyal customers.
