Royal Caribbean’s loyalty program offers six different tiers for its frequent cruisers. The more nights you spend on a cruise ship, the more points you earn with the cruise line’s Crown & Anchor Society Program. Cruisers who reach the top tiers will enjoy complimentary drinks, free photos and the very top tier will receive a free cruise.
Cruisers will earn one point each night they are on a cruise, one bonus point each night if they are in a suite, and one bonus point per night when cruising solo. For example, guests taking a 5-night cruise in a suite, will earn 10 points for that cruise–1 point for each night and 1 point each night in a suite. Cruisers will receive their points upon completion of their cruise and the points never expire. Once a status is earned, it’s kept.
