SpeedNoodles Posted January 27, 2019 Report Share Posted January 27, 2019 Maybe someone here knows, maybe not - but I'm confused. I've had 2 previous RC cruises, and I have 15 points. My cruises were 7 nights and 10 nights in length. I'm no math whiz, but wouldn't that be 17 points? Underneath each cruise it says "Points earned: 1", but at the top of the page it does say 15 total points. I'm kind of afraid to email them and ask .. they might demote it to 2 points! Anyone know if the point accrual was just less way back in the day? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamesGurner Posted January 27, 2019 Report Share Posted January 27, 2019 My mum has the same problem. She joined the c&a in 2017 although sailed on Indy in 2009. When checking her account she had 1 point instead of 1 point for each night. She waited to speak to a c&a rep wheh we sailed the next time who sorted it out for her and gave the correct points. It was due to a change in the way points were awarded now it’s points per night before a certain date it was points per cruise although can’t recall the date of change.

Thank you, James - I'll contact C&A. Nice to know it isn't just me :) JamesGurner 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HeWhoWaits Posted January 27, 2019 Report Share Posted January 27, 2019 When the conversion was made from 1 point per cruise to 1 point per night, every cruise (regardless of length) was counted as 7 points. An extra point was added to that total to account for the possibility of longer cruises. 2 cruises =14 points + 1 extra = 15 like you see. Those who took longer (e.g. 10 night) cruises didn't get what would now be considered "full credit" but those who sailed shorter (3 or 4 night) itineraries made out like bandits.

Thank you for the explanation, and BOOOOOOO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guy Gadwa Posted January 27, 2019 Report Share Posted January 27, 2019 We did not get credit for the 5 night land tour portion of our 2008 Alaska cruise. Since we didn’t sail on Royal again until 2014, I didn’t notice it. When I did, I emailed C&A and they corrected it a few days later. I hope you have the same success!
