We will be on the 8/10 12-night Jewel sailing to Norway and are within a 3-night cruise of making Elite on Celebrity which would match to Diamond on Royal. Are we crazy to consider a weekend trip to get over the Diamond hump before the big trip this summer? Seems like the drink vouchers alone would offset most if not all of the cost.
More specifically, we've split our sailing too much between the two brands so only have 59 C&A points. This would go up to 71 after the 12-night cruise, still a long way from diamond. Over in Captain's Club we have 285 points, which is only 15 shy of Elite and can be earned with 3 nights in Concierge or Aqua class. My understanding is crossing the Elite threshold in Captain's Club would 'match' to Diamond on Royal.
