Princess Cruises has launched a new Loyalty Accelerator Program promotion running until December 2024, letting guests fast-track their way further up the Captain’s Circle rankings.
The Captain’s Circle is Princess Cruises’ loyalty programme which rewards guests who sail with Princess Cruises multiple times.
Each tier adds more benefits, up to the top-level tier Elite which offers discounts in onboard shops and on shore excursions, priority tender, complimentary laundry services and more.
As part of the new Loyalty Accelerator Program, any guest sailing on a cruise between 1st August 2024 and 1st December 2024 will gain double points for their cruise, provided they upgrade to either a Princess Plus or Princess Premier fare.
Any guests who already had a booking during this time and who had already paid for Princess Plus or Princess Premier will be given the bonus automatically, but guests who are booked on a standard fare will need to upgrade their fare to qualify.
They also have to do so no later than two days before setting sail. Otherwise, they won’t get the double points.
Guests can move up the tiers either through the number of cruises, or the number of cruise days:
- Gold – After one cruise, any length
- Ruby – After 3 cruises, or 30 cruise days
- Platinum – After 5 cruises, or 50 cruise days
- Elite – After 15 cruises, or 150 cruise days
The promotion counts double on both cruises and cruise days – so one 7-night cruise would be counted as two cruises, and as 14 cruise days.

Hi Craig. You need to buy 100 shares to get the benefits. I have a guide on this here: https://www.cruisemummy.co.uk/carnival-shareholder-benefits/ I hope that helps. Jenni
