AHollyS Posted September 1, 2021 Report Share Posted September 1, 2021 Hi All, I have a question about the C&A membership for my family. I currently have a C&A membership. I signed up prior to booking my first RC voyage (Woo Hoo). I'm sailing with the Hubs and two beans. How do I get the beans there own C&A membership. They are 6 & 8. No e-mail. Is this some thing my travel agent can make happen, or is it a call to RC? Do I just need to make an e-mail up for each bean? I hope to skip right to the best way with out all the trials or errors. Thank you all in advance for your advise. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HeWhoWaits Posted September 1, 2021 Report Share Posted September 1, 2021 There is no benefit to having a membership number on your first cruise. After the cruise, everyone in the family will receive credit for the cruise. Simply contact the C&A desk to have numbers assigned to each individual and link them together based on sharing the same address. That way, if you and your husband cruise without the kids they will still progress through the C&A tier process based on your activity. emmef, CruiserNic, AHollyS and 2 others 2 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cdixon22 Posted September 1, 2021 Report Share Posted September 1, 2021 Do they have to sign up before the cruise or be members prior to cruise to get the double points? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In order to receive double points, one must already be a C&A member. Membership is conferred upon completion of one's first cruise. First-time cruisers may obtain a "number" but that first cruise will still only garner standard points as they are not a member until completion of that first cruise.

I have friends who recently cruised with RCL for the first time …….. they signed up for a crown and anchor number BEFORE their cruise …….. after their cruise, their account received DOUBLE points even though it was their first cruise.

You did mention they sailed Royal right? The same Royal that has the wonderful IT systems we all know and love. The same Royal that is never consistent.

Mrs. RoyalMoyal Posted September 3, 2021 Report Share Posted September 3, 2021 Set them up with email. That's what I did .. Email at the age of 9 months old. They will need it anyway! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AHollyS Posted September 4, 2021 Author Report Share Posted September 4, 2021 UPDATE: I have sent an e-mail (9/3/21) to the above mentioned e-mail (thank you!) requesting the three additional C&A #'s. No reply as of this moment, but I don't expect anything until the mid part of next week because of the holiday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How did they get a c&a number before the cruise? My sister in law is sailing for the first time with us in November and would hope she could get double points.

Then from the sign in page click on “create an account” That account will generate their C&A number. Epsilon, Neesa and cdixon22 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My son has a C&A number since 2004 and is listed as a platinum member. He is also listed within our family group. My question is, in your quote above it says "they will still progress through C&A tier process" yet My wife and I are D+ and he is still listed as Platinum? so, does he qualify as D+ ? Does he only get to enjoy the benefits of D+ if he cruises the same booking with us? will our Progress never show as "His" progress? I am soooo confused.

WAAAYTOOO Posted September 6, 2021 Report Share Posted September 6, 2021 If your son is less than 18 years old then absolutely he should be D+ due to your status and his relationship to you. If he is older than 18, he would be whatever your status was when he turned 18. CruiserNic and Neesa 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pooch Posted September 6, 2021 Report Share Posted September 6, 2021 How old is your son? And how old was he when you became Diamond & Diamond+? NVM I see WAAAYTOOO beat me to it. WAAAYTOOO 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AHollyS Posted September 17, 2021 Author Report Share Posted September 17, 2021 Update: I followed the group's advise. I called this morning and it is done.
