craigtompkins Posted October 29, 2013 #1 Share Posted October 29, 2013 I just booked my 10th Carnival cruise for December so that I get grandfathered into Platinum. My question is: Do I get the Platinum perks on this cruise or only on future cruises? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

craigtompkins Posted October 29, 2013 Author #4 Share Posted October 29, 2013 That's good to know. When I asked the lady on the phone while booking she hesitated and said she thought the next one. She didn't sound confident at all. Honestly the only one I really care about is priority debarkation and priority tender. On this one :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
craigtompkins Posted October 29, 2013 Author #5 Share Posted October 29, 2013 Oh, and with priority debarkation and priority tender, I assume my wife who will still be gold still gets to go with me? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chief93 Posted October 29, 2013 #6 Share Posted October 29, 2013 FYI - note that you WILL NOT be Platinum automatically. You must contact Carnival and request it. My PVP warned me about this when I was in the same situation. She handled the request and all was well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't have a PVP, I just call the main number and get whoever I get. She congratulated me 4 times on making Platinum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am going on my 10th Carnival cruise November 9th, my docs have me as platinum and my luggage tags say priority. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kristinp36 Posted October 29, 2013 #12 Share Posted October 29, 2013 Our docs updated automatically without us calling. I would log into your carnival acct and check before calling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My PVP warned me about this when I was in the same situation. She handled the request and all was well. I never called before my 10th - it was all automatically done. When I printed my boarding pass it said VIP (now changed to Priority, same thing). DH is still gold, he gets to tag along for boarding and disembarking, but only 1 Platinum gift will be delivered.

Bibble Posted October 29, 2013 #14 Share Posted October 29, 2013 Mine too showed up automatically on my docs when I looked. Go into your account, and click where it says to print your documents and it should show you as Platinum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rmvst Posted October 29, 2013 #15 Share Posted October 29, 2013 I just booked my 10th Carnival cruise for December so that I get grandfathered into Platinum. My question is: Do I get the Platinum perks on this cruise or only on future cruises? My 10th cruise was last month. When I printed my documents it had "priority" on the luggage tags and "platinum" on the boarding pass. I did not have to call my pvp Enjoy your perks. They are great.
