Can I start redeeming my benefits as soon as I receive the announcement email on May 28, 2026?

Not just yet—your benefits will be available on sailings starting June 11, 2026, and onward.

Which benefits will I enjoy on every sailing after reaching a milestone?

Once you reach a milestone, you’ll enjoy these benefits on every sailing (benefits based on the milestone): 

o   Complimentary digital photo(s) 

o   Specialty dining cover charge discount 

o   Premium Wi-Fi minute 

o   Extend Your Stay (where available) 

o   Complimentary specialty lunch

Which benefits are only redeemed once?

These exclusive benefits are offered one time, on your first sailing after reaching a milestone: 

o   A surprise in-room amenity  

o   Bottle of champagne 

o   Complimentary specialty dinner 

I just reached a milestone and completed my first sailing at that milestone prior to June 11, 2026. Can I still receive any of the one-time benefits that come with my milestone?

No. Milestone benefits take effect on sailings starting June 11, 2026, and onward. We’re unable to make exceptions for any one-time milestone benefits, including the in-room amenity, champagne, or complimentary specialty dinner. However, you’ll still be able to enjoy all ongoing milestone benefits on sailings after June 11.

I applied points from Royal Caribbean’s Crown and Anchor, or Silversea’s Venetian Society to Celebrity Cruises. Will those points count toward milestone benefits?

Yes—points transferred through Points Choice are included in your overall Club Points balance. They are not separated or excluded, and they will count toward reaching your milestone and unlocking associated benefits.

I’m an Elite Plus or Zenith member through Status Match—am I still eligible for Milestone benefits?

Benefits are based on Club Points earned, so you’ll only qualify once you’ve reached the required Milestone Club Point threshold. To unlock these benefits, you’ll need to reach the required point thresholds (1,500; 2,250; 3,000; 6,000; or 9,000 Club Points), regardless of your tier status through Status Match. To reach these thresholds, you can sail with Celebrity Cruises and/or transfer points through Points Choice from our sister brands to build toward your milestone and enjoy the associated benefits.

I already receive premium Wi-Fi minutes and specialty dining discounts as an Elite Plus or Zenith member. If I reach a milestone, will these benefits stack?

No, these benefits do not stack. Once you unlock a milestone, the associated premium Wi-Fi minutes and specialty dining discount will replace the ones you previously received at your tier level.
