Double Points Change???

[seychelle]

Royal's website states "Double Points on all sailings through December 2022."  It doesn't say booking must be made by 9/30/21.  Is this a change or does it still have to be done by the end of September?

So, I'm in a GS on 14 night TA leaving 10/30/2021 which would normally give me 28 points.  Is this being doubled too? 

 

"The double points offer is exclusive to our most loyal guests, the Crown & Anchor Society members! Members will receive double Cruise Points on bookings made through September 30, 2021 for sailings departing January 1, 2021 to December 31, 2022".

 

Please say yes; I'd love 56 points 😂.

Yes, I'm booked solo on Oasis Sept. 5 and normally for a 7 night it would be 14 points.  With the double promo, I expect to earn 28 points.

I was solo in a JS on Adventure in July and received 42 points for the 7 night cruise.  It is true double points.

You have all made me a very happy cruiser!  Thank you for your quick responses.

What happens if a cruise booked and paid for which qualified for this promotion is subsequently canceled. Would a lift and shift transfer qualify if the new cruise is before 12/31/2022? Would a new booking using FCC's from the previously qualified cruise qualify?

Not to question you, but how did you get 42 points for a 7 nighter.

Solo in a suite  = 6 points per night x 7 = 42

Thanks, did not realize that solo in suite normally gets 3 points.

It will likely hinge on the booking number - if you can somehow keep the booking number (with a pre-9/30/21 booking date) then it should qualify.

These double points rock. It’s speeding up my Loyalty Status to D+. I’ll be there after my Oasis cruise next August 😊

Yup, solo’s normally get 2 in other categories. They get one more point in suites.

If I do an Alaska cruise tour 10 nights (7 cruise- 3 land) in a GS do I get double points for the land portion too or just the cruise portion?

Wow; that's all new to me.  Thank you.  

[ampurp85]

@cocoabeanIf land portion is book through RCG then yes you will get double point for the land portion as well.

Pinnacle people be poppin' out everywhere!

 

In all seriousness, I would assume that RCI will make adjustments to their C&A tiers in the future.

Agree.  I try to never cancel and go through the FCC/refund gauntlet.  I always prefer to move the booking to a different cruise, which keep the booking number, and the money just transfers over.  Much quicker and easier.

They keep trying keep me from getting that. Had B8B this Fall canceled, but also had/lost a TA B5B of 48 nites in a Suite all SOLO. Oh well at least received all Refund's back only taking 7nites and 6hrs...

We have a 10 night and a 12 night booked in OS (the price upgrade from GS to OS was quite small).

 

It will take me from just making D to just making D+

• Are the double points automatic or do you contact RCL?
• How do you know when they do that promotion?

The points are automatic, but I would check your points to make sure. It’s been in emails I have received and it’s posted on their website.

[Truluv]

Great news.  I'll be solo in a JS next year, and the points will tip me into Diamond Plus LOL.
