Ashland Posted October 19, 2020 #1 Share Posted October 19, 2020 Just noticed RCI is offering double points for 2021 cruises. Is this for new bookings or also for cruises already booked ? 2 Link to post Share on other sites

Good news if you want to make the next level especially Pinnacle but the number of Diamonds will increase massively with the knock on effect of overcrowded DLs which is often discussed on here.

cublet Posted October 19, 2020 #13 Share Posted October 19, 2020 (edited) Hello, I've just sent this to my TA asking him to enquire. For those that it does/may affect, it must apply to existing bookings because imagine the effort required to cancel and rebook all the current bookings for those where C&A points are important. I'm sure RCI has better things to do - like do my refunds & FCCs for a start. Interesting to know how many bookings there are already from the USA & Canada. There is no mention of the offer on either the RCI Press Centre website nor the loyaltoyoualways offers pages Regards, Cublet.

cruisegirl1 Posted October 19, 2020 #14 Share Posted October 19, 2020 (edited) If the offer is real, my guess is new bookings only, as a way to raise cash. Royal Caribbean has nothing to lose by offering extra points. They did it years ago (several years in a row) when they had the Diamonds in December event. Diamond members got an extra credit, (no points back then -we had one or two credits per cruise ) for cruises taken in December. edit to add Dash I see it on the website, but I don’t see any information regarding new or existing bookings m Edited October 19, 2020 by cruisegirl1 2 Link to post Share on other sites
molly361 Posted October 19, 2020 #15 Share Posted October 19, 2020 My guess is that it's going to cover existing bookings as well as new ones hoping it might stop some people from canceling 5 Link to post Share on other sites

Ourusualbeach Posted October 19, 2020 #20 Share Posted October 19, 2020 I can’t find any terms and conditions on either Cruising Power or Loyal to You Always. Hope this simply means all 2021 sailings and not new bookings only. 6 Link to post Share on other sites

I think having it for new bookings only would be a PR nightmare. 5 Link to post Share on other sites
Biker19 Posted October 19, 2020 #24 Share Posted October 19, 2020 If this is legit, I must say the marketeers at RCI are pretty good - between this and Lift & Shift (and other CWC perks) they've come up with some ingenious ways to keep/pull in deposits. 7 Link to post Share on other sites

I only have 2 booked in 2021, 4 squashed into early 2022. So of course I'm wondering do I get 3 pts instead of 2? That's still interesting.
