tonyfsu21 Posted April 1, 2018 Report Share Posted April 1, 2018 I’m not holding my breath but tomorrow is the supposed date for which we will finally know where we stand within the program. How this will be done (email, snail mail or phone) is still a mystery. This program is cloaked in darkness and I don’t necessarily expect anything to change! I am hopeful though! Bring it on.

mathbees Posted April 2, 2018 Report Share Posted April 2, 2018 You know, this is getting tiring (sorry for stating the obvious). I have my first RCI cruise this June (converting from Carnival...). I booked it more than a year ago as soon as the itineraries opened - so I've been sitting in anticipation for the past 13 months with just under 3 to go! Every time I hear about another perk being taken away or modified, it's making me question whether I will continue to set my sights on maintaining status with RCI. I had just convinced the wife that we would want to do at least the first few cruises in suites so that we could gain status quickly, but if they keep pecking away at the benefits, well, then there will be no reason to achieve status. It just seems like every month or two they do something new... add a service charge for room service, increase the service charge for room service, remove free wifi for D+ members, etc. I know they are trying to maintain a profit, and I also know a few people ruin it for everyone (sharing drink packages, for example), but enough is enough. Maybe it would be easier to stomach if they would just make a slew of changes once every two years. As a side note, I am thankful for the people on this board that keep up with these changes so they aren't a surprise when we get on board.

It should actually be embarrassing for a multi-billion dollar cruise conglomerate to be so shady in regards to this program. The casinos on these ships are their cash printing money making machines! I would imagine they make more money in the casinos then they do anywhere else across the board. Why would they keep the loyalists in the dark? It makes no sense. I’m cruising this coming weekend to the Bahamas and I’m curious as to whether there will be changes implemented prior to my Friday saildate (highly doubt it). If you hear anything please let me know.

Traveler Posted April 2, 2018 Report Share Posted April 2, 2018 I will not be surprised if they will say they had to postponed the roll out of the new program due to the issues they had with the RC site. On the other hand I will be surprised if they will announce anything and not just ignore the date and hope no one will notice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe they view Easter Monday as a holiday. Hopefully they release information regarding the new program some time this week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tonyfsu21 Posted April 4, 2018 Author Report Share Posted April 4, 2018 I emailed Casino Royale and here is their less then informative response: “Hello,We are expecting all announcements to be made shortly regarding the new program benefits and tiers.” This is standard issue “Casino Royale” BS. Is “shortly” today, tomorrow or next year? WAAAYTOOO 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
