Priority Tendering Process

[Richjoxyz]

What is the process to use Priority Tendering? We are platinum but have never tendered while platinum. Do we go to the tender boat and cut in front of everyone, or do we check in someplace and get escorted?

With FTTF we just go to GS and they walk us right to the front of the line. I believe it is the same for Platinum as well! Congrats on Platinum I cant wait for it! Happy cruising.

As above, you go to Guest Services- when your entire group is ready to go.

Guest Services is the Priority line at the pursers desk, correct?

We have had two different experiences. One time they had the stairs divided into two section one for priority and the other the regular line. The second time we reported to a table near GS and they walked us to the front of the line.

Just go to the Guest Services Desk priority line and tell them you're ready to go. No tender tickets are required as you will be escorted to the front of the line by carnival staff. You can bring off with you other people in your group. The exact number of people each platinum person can bring off with them seems to vary according to reports. Some people have been told 5, I was told 7, but suffice it to say you can bring a few people with you so if you have an independent tour that you've arranged with friends you can all leave for the tour at the same time.

On paradise last week. We tendered at Grand Cayman. We were told by GS to report to Leonardo Lounge. There was a sign in front of the lounge: "Platinum meeting point". We waited there until about 10 or 12 people showed up and were escorted down a "back way" in a line led by an employee, and were led to the tender boat.

Since you are on the Miracle, what other ships do doesn't concern you.

 

This was the procedure for Platinum tendering on the Miracle in April. Go to the priority line at Guest Services with your party. Someone will then escort your party down to the tender line for the next tender.

 

They didn't let us go to the beginning of the line, but we still were on the next tender.
