Tatka Posted August 5, 2018 #476 Share Posted August 5, 2018 It takes a second on my phone to get on the CC site that's maybe why I seem to post a lot.Agree. I use Tapatalk and in such apps you see subscribed topics, topics you are participated in. So there is often an urge to respond. :) What can we do? We're addicted to cruising.

Blizzard54 Posted August 5, 2018 #477 Share Posted August 5, 2018 Serious question, at what point do you find yourself going were so close and start cruising like crazy to get across the line? To be honest at around 600, I could see us altering our normal vacation pattern and booking more cruises. I mean with Suite Bonus its 50 nights, so around 7 cruises. Did you find yourself actively thinking this way sooner? We had always planned to significantly increase our cruising as soon as we retired. We had 310 points when we stopped working. We cruised 84 nights that year. I then booked 175 and 160 nights for the next two years to reach Pinnacle. The mission will be completed this coming December with no bonus points.

We'll have 310 by the end of this year albeit with 8 different companies. I cannot imagine what we'll do in 20 years when we retire. This year we will have 40 nights.(6-7-7-8-12) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blizzard it appears you have given me the key. I am not retired yet. Clearly I need to get that accomplished ASAP. It is blocking my ability to increase my C&A status. Congrats on finishing the race. I blame my parents for not taking me cruising as a kid and jump starting the process. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my SM-G920P using Forums mobile app I started cruising when I was 45.I suffered motion sickness as a passenger in cars, coaches and trains so was apprehensive of sailing.

Rare xpcdoojk Posted August 5, 2018 #494 Share Posted August 5, 2018 I had to open a second trip advisor account as BIL was jealous and trolled the first one and posted lies anonymously.In the end I stopped posting and got interested in CC instead. I am sure tripadvisor misses you, as does your BIL. You two are obviously very close. You should invite him here.:'):halo::evilsmile: JC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare xpcdoojk Posted August 5, 2018 #495 Share Posted August 5, 2018 I’d NEVER admit to having had a previous user name. Even if I did, that would be 2 and not 4. I certainly have no intention of chasing post counts like some chase P points. Therefore it was nothing more than a Fake News Post.
