could anyone please inform me do you receive a cruise credit for a 4 night cruise thankyou.

Yes, you receive a credit. Any regularly scheduled cruise of 3 nights or longer will get at least one cruise credit, and two credits if you book a suite - even in a 3 or 4 night cruise.

In fact I took a 3 night cruise last summer - by myself - just to get the one credit I needed to make diamond level with RCI.

That's why so many people that live in Florida have so many cruise credits - they take the cheap 3 and 4 night cruises without having to spend any money on air fare. I'm just a rookie with 50 cruise credits. Every time my wife and I go on a cruise we have to dish out another $500 for air line tickets, plus we go a day before the cruise and have to pay for a hotel. It's my fault—I choose to live in Wisconsin.

Ditto Sonny with us, and now we are going to our port two days early just to get the vaca started earlier..Our flights from the Northeast are not cheap either.

Dave,

Now that you are Diamond, I was just wondering...

As the Grandeur doesn't have a Diamond Club, was there a provision to use one of the lounges (or other rooms) as a substitute for D members during the day, especially for the 5:00 - 8:30PM cocktail hour?

I had heard that under the new "rules", there was to be some kind of attempt to provide a Concierge Club-type venue for Diamond members.

They are not implementing that until September. I expect they will use either the Viking Crown or perhaps the underused "Singin' In The Rain" lounge adjacent to the Schooner Bar.

I found that to be true on the Sovereign last summer. Lots of D and D+ members who lived nearby and most of their cruises were 3 and 4 nights out of Port Canaveral.

I really need to work on my RCI credits. http://cruise-chat.com/groupee_commo...icon_smile.gif

Yes, especially since once you have 5 credits with RCI they can be used with Celebrity's Captain's Club too - you get equivalent membership with your Crown&Anchor level.

Huh? Dave, do you mean that RCI will now count cruises with both RCI and Celebrity towards status?
