Rare Steelers0854 Posted January 17, 2018 #51 Share Posted January 17, 2018 Why is it fair not to give a credit for someone on a 1-6 day cruise? They are still cruising and have paid money to Princess to do so. We just reached Elite a week ago with 12 cruises and 135 days. (we were in WS for 3 cruises so received double credit and now have 15 credits). To me spending 16 days on a cruise ship should not make you an elite. Elite should come through a commitment to the cruiseline. It’s not that they wouldn’t get credit, their days still count towards status, but the cruise credit wouldn’t.

rbt001 Posted January 17, 2018 #53 Share Posted January 17, 2018 8 cruises, 31 sailing days and I was Elite. Six cruises by myself, one being in a suite. 7 were four day cruises while the other was a 3 day cruise. I'm estimating that total cruise fares were < $5,000 while casino cash offers to book some of these were >$1,000 total and OBC's for the 8 were > $500. Living in the Fort Lauderdale area during 2014 really paid off with great cruise deals at a time when they couldn't fill the ships. Today my cruise count stands at 40 (with 20 actual cruises) and 124 days. It's nice to know that I can now give Princess a break while I try other lines, but that when I come back in 10 years, I'll still have Elite benefits.

Rare gottagocit Posted January 18, 2018 Author #54 Share Posted January 18, 2018 There is certainly a wide range of days/credits at which some have reached the elite level. I wonder how closely Princess monitors this particular data in order to determine when or if they modify the required levels needed to do so.

kenexx Posted January 20, 2018 #55 Share Posted January 20, 2018 The laundry benefit is per passenger not per cabin. Normally only sail in full suites so I get the laundry anyway. I guess I shouldn’t get the 10% discount either if I buy something on his account :rolleyes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
