how many credits can you get on a cruise. I can of 4 only.
2 credits for a suite and 2 credits for a cruise longer than 12 days. Is there
any other way too add credits.

As I am reading the C&A website I am more and more doubting that it is possible to obtain 4 credits. Read this:

Receive two cruise credits for a 12-night or longer cruise/cruisetour on or after January 1, 2003 ****

Ok so that makes sense, you get 2 credits for 12 nights and longer.

Receive an extra cruise credit when you purchase and sail in a suite (categories RS, OS, FS, GS, JS) for sailings beginning on or after January 1, 2004

But this says you receive and extra credit, so does that mean you get 2 for a 12 night cruise plus 1 extra for a suite? I'm now very confused. That would be only 3 credits max.

The max is 3.........cant get 4 even if you cruise on a 12 night cruise in a suite...........

Earl...the answer is that you book 3 day cruises in a suite......that would give you 8 credits if you take four cruises......five more than taking a 12 day cruise in a suite. There's an expert on here that can tell you more. Diamond in a heart beat!

So, how did you know I was talking about you PH? In any case......that would give you five points instead of 3 on a 12 dayer.
How many days at sea do you have?

[quote PH8]Off hand,looking at MY CRUISES,it looks like about 126 days.......[/quote]Now are these real days at sea or are you counting time in port as a day at sea also?

Well, considering we are not in a port all day,I counted every day that I was on a cruise ship........and those were only on RCCL..........

[quote PH8]Well, considering we are not in a port all day,I counted every day that I was on a cruise ship........and those were only on RCCL..........[/quote]Okay, then on a one week cruise, say Saturday to Saturday, do you count that as seven or eight (since you are actually on the ship for eight days - in this example two Saturdays plus the other six days)?

Princess counts days at sea versus credits. Days at sea to them is a seven day cruise is seven days regardless if the ship is in port a portion of a day. Counting a seven day cruise as 8 doesn't make sense because on a seven day cruise you would only be on board about 6 days, 20 hours.
Your count of days must be off PH.......mine is 245 on RCCL [40 credits] and 112 on other lines. You have to be closer to me on number of days.

Now,you know those 3 nighters dont add up to much..:p

And if my cruise is a 7 day cruise,I count it as 7........not 8..

Oh yea, I forgot about three dayers.

I just noticed, I have spent almost a year on cruise ships.....plus 3 years aboard ship in the Navy. Salt water in my blood!
