Rare Cruise Raider Posted September 3 #451 Share Posted September 3 8 minutes ago, 555 said: I like to look at their tabulation for a realistic total, not inflated because of some special sale. It’s easy enough to do because the extra days / number of cruises is very easy to identify as the line item looks different showing a blank space on the listing. If you don’t want the extra days, just wait until you are onboard to buy the package. That way, you will not be given the extra days. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The reality is that Princess has long had an “inflated” total for cruise count for solo cruisers and suite cruisers. They just muddied the cruise day waters a bit with this promotion. A year from now it won’t matter. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I too only see the single credit but just got off the ship two days ago so hoping it catches up and is added soon. My cruise ended last Saturday and it showed up in my account today (Tuesday) without any follow up to Princess 👍🏻 2 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My account shows 1 cruise credit and 7 additional cruise days. Are you saying it will get corrected online and I should just wait? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Note the ‘1’ won’t turn to a ‘2’, instead a new additional line will appear. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RDJ Posted September 17 #456 Share Posted September 17 Decided why not?! Booked the little 2 nighter Vancouver for next month that will also count as 2 sailings towards loyalty. This will leave me with needing 2 more and I’ll finally be elite! A status I’ve been working toward for 20 years now 😁 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nathanh Posted September 18 #459 Share Posted September 18 Shame I'm already Elite but at least if they bring out a higher category which I suspect they will I will be closer to it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Being Elite these days is no longer what it use to be. Besides eliminating some of the benefits, there are literally hundreds of elites aboard every sailing. I'm all for having a new upper category but I doubt if we'll ever see it happen and even if they do make one, what would they possibly include that wouldn't cost them money? They're more interested in selling packages then providing perks for Elites. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are they still doing that with a milestone # of days? I would absolutely love that if they did. We very rarely book a suite. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We’ve been lucky to get it two or three times and it’s a wonderful perk, but, unless you have over 2000 days, the chances of being first are very small. We don’t book suites either.

It would be a waste for us, though what I wouldn’t give for a second bathroom… I’ve not stayed in a suite with a second bathroom on a cruise ship but, I know there are some out there, eg: sky suites and family suites. When they have had really good solo fares, we have gotten an inside cabin across the hall from a balcony or mini suite, mostly just for that extra bathroom, but also in case one of us got sick so, we both didn’t get sick. Alas, those great solo fares are gone now. I have nowhere near 2000 days and on cruises out of San Francisco or LA, I rarely even see an invite to the MTP luncheon. Those short cruises to Alaska out of Vancouver or Seattle attract much fewer elite level passengers. but wow, I’d really enjoy that Sabatini’s breakfast again. But, we like cruising more often in cheaper cabins than getting a special breakfast on one cruise a year. 23 minutes ago, memoak said: As far as I know there the only people eligible for breakfast in Sabatini’s are full suite passengers and the person with the most days on that cruise.

And I recall 20 years ago there were some Celebrity suites that had the same. We took one cruise in the past few years (right after the start up) that had no single supplement, and booked side by side balcony cabins. Two full bathrooms were heaven, and, after way many years of marriage, it felt slightly scandalous to ask, “Your place or mine?” every night. 😆 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When we had separate rooms one time, the crew members that knew us well pulled me aside and asked if everything was ok between us. We got a good laugh out of that. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare KarmaCruisers Posted September 18 #472 Share Posted September 18 I’m kind of confused by this..because of this promotion; by the end of this year I’ll have 14 “cruise credits” but not 14 cruises sailed (only 11 sailed). so does that mean the next cruise I book, I’ll turn Elite; or do I still need another 4 cruises to be elite…the website doesn’t really make it clear on what metric they’ll use.

You will attain elite status AFTER your 15th cruise credit .. so only one cruise after the end of the year for you! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ok; can I add more complexity.. during this promotion; I’m doing/did 3 cruises that are in a penthouse suite with princess plus..so..instead of 2 credits per cruise, because it’s a suite, is it four credits a pop?
