If you can't get hubby on board, you could always sail solo and get double double points.
Normal 3 nights solo in a double occupancy cabin = 6 points (not enough)
3 nights solo in a double occupancy cabin with the double points promo is 6 x 2 = 12 points (Enough - Welcome to Diamond on the next sailing after)
Just avoid studio cabins unless you step up to a 4 night cruise.
I'm threating to take a solo cruise lol. I need a vacation badly! Hubby is a little hesitant to book anything because of the uncertainty of when cruises will start out of the US, but I'm itching to get something booked. I have taken several solo cruises and except for the time the Miami customs agent thought I was a drug mule ("You're traveling alone? On a 4 night cruise to the Bahamas? And you're only bringing back rum cakes? Really?"), they've all been very enjoyable.

Thank you both! I subscribe to his emails and watch his FB lives all the time but didn’t realize there was a message board until this morning, This is so helpful! I of course would take the 7 nighter any day but were not sure how much time we’ll have off and I think I can convince my husband to take a 4 nighter, especially if it will get us over the top.

My husband and I are 7 points away from Crown & Anchor Diamond status (he married into his status ). I think the easiest, most obvious way to get there is to take a 7 night cruise. Is it possible to get there on a shorter cruise? We are thinking of taking a 4 or 5 nighter in the fall (were both vaccinated already). Can we get 7 points by staying in a suite or some other way on the shorter one or should we just take a longer one?

I've found that whatever you bring, make sure it has a zipper so it can close, and few pockets so you can stash your seapass card and your phone/camera somewhere that is easily accessible. My husband usually brings a backpack as a carryon on the plane, then we use that as our primary beach/excursion bag. I have a little Fjallraven totepack that can be either a shoulderbag/larger purse or a backpack that I use when we're in port walking around and on board that I love.
