rjscott Posted December 17, 2015 #26 Share Posted December 17, 2015 Rec'd our gifts today. We rec'd the email about 3 weeks ago. Both my husband aand I each got to select a gift. We selected the travel bag and the travel blanket. The travel bag is very substantial. It has a design of a windmill on it, which is nice for me as it is a pleasant reminder of our first river cruise, the 'Tulips & Windmlls'. The bag is a good size for shoes or other travel gear And has a drawstring. The blanket comes in a nice zipper case and is a nice size and is a substansial weight, with a whip-stitch finish. It's very nice for airline or car travel. Thank you, Viking! Becki Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bellemere Posted December 19, 2015 #30 Share Posted December 19, 2015 Having an early Christmas morning and what should appear but the mailman with two bright red Viking blankets. They are very nice and come in a matching zipper bag that makes it look like a pillow. Anxious to try on our next flight for a 7th trip with Viking in 2016. Merry Christmas to all.

OBX Cruisers Posted December 21, 2015 #31 Share Posted December 21, 2015 Have already used our red Viking blanket in the zipper case on a flight last week from DC to Oregon. Makes a comfy pillow or opens up to a blanket. Also chose the zip bag. Both very good quality. Thanks Viking! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Warm regards, Viking Cruises We have 4 Viking cruises under our belt, the last two being Oct 2014 and then April 2015! Wonder how many people take 2 river cruises within 6 months of each other? Never received an email regarding a loyalty gift program. Do I need to book 3 cruises within 6 months to qualify???:rolleyes:;) Edited December 22, 2015 by CJcruzer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CJcruzer Posted December 22, 2015 #34 Share Posted December 22, 2015 Dear roberts2005 and franski, Our loyalty program, Viking Explorer Society, underwent an exciting renovation during the majority of the 2015 season. The program is now complete and email notifications that detail your gifts are just starting to roll out. We expect that all guests who traveled this year will receive an email by the end of November. Thank you for your patience during this construction period. If you still do not receive an email by the end of November, or if you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact us at TellUs@vikingcruises.com. Kind regards, Viking Cruises Quote: well I understand the rules, but your previous post in response to other wueries say that we would be contacted by end of November? I would not even know about this program if not for cruise critic :rolleyes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Vineyard View Posted December 31, 2015 #35 Share Posted December 31, 2015 We received two very nice packing cubes - thank you Viking! Since we sailed two back to back trips this year, now I understand how this all works after reading this thread (as we had previously sailed on Viking prior to this year). We will put them to good use prior to our next Viking trip as well as during! Sounds like the blankets are a great choice as well. We appreciate the program Viking.

prodoc Posted October 3, 2017 #38 Share Posted October 3, 2017 I received the email from Viking and selected a power cube which I received several weeks later. I have already used it several times and plan on taking it on my Viking cruise in November. Thank you Viking! I look forward to more cruises with Viking River and plan on taking a Viking Ocean as soon as we can work it in our schedule. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fpacifico Posted October 3, 2017 #39 Share Posted October 3, 2017 I was sent the pillow/blanket that I keep in my car, then I received two clothing cubes , which I love, you can fit so much in them. Then I received the three little bags, which are great for putting soaks or stockings into. It's fun to receive these little gifts, thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
