MSC World Europa Designed with the Future in Mind

ms europa cruise ship

Restaurant Weltmeere is the largest onboard dining venue, at the stern of the ship, serving the highest-quality food. Other venues are Restaurant Elements serving Asian cuisines plus traditional Chinese dishes, Restaurant Tarragon with its French cuisine, and Restaurant Serenissima offering authentic Italian dishes. Yacht Club Restaurant surprises with a mix of dishes specially prepared for all guests by the chefs. Try alternatively Sushi Restaurant Sakura or reserve Speisezimmer for an additional charge to celebrate special occasions, or dine with family. For the evenings, better consider smart casual style recommended. Summer suits or jackets for gentlemen would be appropriate, ties are not compulsory.

Window Single Suite

Bars and lounges are just "blah," and Europa lacks contemporary concepts -- such as more spaces for outdoor living and dining -- that we're seeing on other, newer luxury lines. Entertainment, beyond the specially themed classical festival, was also dated (a DJ in Sansibar, a folk band for special events, big-band dancing, etc.). MS Europa ship primarily serves German-speaking passengers but is also well known to travelers around the world. Berlitz cruise guidebooks rank ms Europa as the best luxury cruise liner in the world. She is the only one with a five-plus star rating for more than a decade.

That is why you can choose from among four ships, each with its very own character. Hapag-Lloyd's "onboard beverage credit" is the company's all-inclusive drink package (for both non-alcoholic and unlimited alcoholic drinks) priced at EUR 200 per person per cruise. MS Europa 2 staterooms (251 total, in 12 grades) are all Suites with step-out balconies.

Thank you for visiting MSC Cruises

On May 10, 2013, the vessel was christened during the 824th Hamburg Port Anniversary. Europa 2 sailed on her 14-night maiden voyage from Hamburg on May 11, 2013. After its drydock refurbishments in May 2007, the ship received new SPA Suites. Ship configuration, data and descriptions may be subject to change depending on the season and on the destination and must be verified at the time of booking.

Modernizing cuisine with art not technology, Ekstedt combines traditional Nordic cooking and preserving techniques with astonishingly creative combinations of rigorously fresh seasonal ingredients. The best location of the cabins and a reserved area accessible only for YC Members with dedicated restaurant and lounges. Kids are well catered for onboard, with Knopf Club (for ages 2-3), Kids' Club (for ages 4-10), Teens' Club (for ages 11-15). Kids up to 11 years old travel free when they share with a full-paying adult. Other MS Europa 2 facilities include a Library, Auditorium-3D Cinema, Jazz Club, Boutique, Fitness/gym area, deck games area/shuffleboard, whirlpools, Culinary School (for an additional charge).

One of the highlights on board is certainly the "The Globe by Kevin Fehling" for a maximum of 24 guests. Here, the three-star chef Kevin Fehling offers a particularly high culinary level. Also recommended is the restaurant "Pearls" on Deck 7 - with its extraordinary caviar creation. The grill station spoils you with delightful delicacies that you can enjoy the open air.

ms europa cruise ship

Like all the newbuild cruise liners, MS Europa 2 is fitted with shorepower technology allowing the boat to be plugged-in at berths with shorepower/cold ironing capabilities. When docked, the cruise ship requires 2,2 MW of electricity per hour. While berthed at homeport Hamburg's Cruise Center Altona, the vessel is provided with electricity by the company Hamburg Energie GmbH. Europa 2 ship has a biological sewage treatment plant and seawater desalination facilities.

Les Dunes restaurant

Yet another example of MSC Cruises’ firm long-term environmental commitment and responsibility to the future, this unique prototype features a ground-breaking design, where every detail is conceived to offer you a taste of a new cruising experience. Airfare and pre- and post-cruise stays are not included, but can be arranged. Those who book flights through Hapag-Lloyd get shuttled to and from the ship. Cruises are not only a wonderful but also a highly individual form of travel.

Other Hapag-Lloyd Cruises cabins

You can end the evening in one of the five bars, share impressions of the past hours with fellow travellers or plan the next day in a cozy atmosphere. Welcome to a ship that sets the global benchmarks for luxury cruises. It may be smaller than other cruise ships, but the EUROPA is miles ahead of the crowd. Enjoy the unrivalled freedom for personal relaxation on a cruise with no more than 400 guests – with plenty of scope for fresh ideas, indulgence and inspiring perspectives. Europa 2 is sleek, featuring high ceilings, dramatic cylinder-shaped light fixtures and generously sized windows in its spacious lobby bar/reception area.

The most beautiful yacht in the world, that’s how the the M/S Europe is also called. Its sleek appearance, manageable size and perfect service make the stay on board for a maximum of 400 passengers an unforgettable experience. Board language is German, also excursions and other programs are offered in German. In addition, the Europa was conceptually and design-technically modernized in October 2019, so that the ship now shines in "casual chic". Every year, the EUROPA sets off on thrilling routes around the globe ant takes you to places that are simply unreachable by other cruise ships. This affords us a great deal of flexibility when we plan our routes - and provides you with unparalleled diversity and a wide selection of cruises.

Award-winning brewmaster Teo Musso, who created the Baladin Farm Brewery, has worked with MSC Cruises to create a bespoke range of MSC signature craft beers that will be brewed at sea in the ship’s full-scale micro-brewery. The ship does attract some English-speakers, primarily from the U.K., Hong Kong and North America. On our fully booked sailing, 40 non-German travelers and just a handful of Americans were aboard. Passengers tend to be 40 and over, though you'll spot a younger demographic during European school holidays. Hapag-Lloyd hopes international luxury travelers will make up more than 10 percent of Europa 2's passenger base, which now is just 7 percent non-German-speaking. You likely will hear little English spoken by passengers, though many can converse with you.

Veranda Suite category also offers wheelchair-accessible (handicapped) and connecting cabins. All cabin bathrooms are marble-tiled, with full-size bathtubs, glass-fronted showers, cabinets for personal items, top-brand toiletries, slippers, thick cotton robes. Veranda Suite offers 24-hour room service, curtain divider (between living-sleeping areas), en-suite bathroom (WC, shower, bathtub), walk-in closet, free minibar (re-stocked daily with bottled water, juices, soft drinks, beer). Instead of step-out balcony, Single Suites have large rounded window. The 516-passenger ship MS Europa 2 is sailing worldwide, specializing in family and golf-themed cruises.

Imagine the future of cruising on board the new revolutionary MSC World Europa, the first ship in the trailblazing MSC World class fleet. With 488 cruises aboard 524 ships from 54 cruise lines we're confident that we'll have exactly what you're looking for. The biggest disappointment with Europa was that service was hit and miss -- and that had nothing to do with language issues. Standouts included the flawless team at the Dieter Muller restaurant, the maitre 'd at Venezia, who was absolutely charming, and our efficient and intuitive cabin stewardess.

Europa 2 is distinguished by the high quality of personnel who interact with the public. Save for room stewards, the majority are young and hail from Germany, Switzerland and Austria. Hapag-Lloyd says they are paid above-average salaries for the cruise industry.

The Ocean Spa is a destination unto itself, with four sauna and steam rooms that are free to use, a relaxation area facing the sea, beauty salon, well-equipped workout area and a hideaway outdoor lounge area with whirlpool tub on Deck 11. Americans who sail on luxury lines might be put off by the fact that alcohol is not included (save for beer in complimentary mini-bars and spirits in mini-bars of higher-level quarters). Except for a welcome bottle of French Champagne, bubbly at the breakfast buffet and some drinks offered at shipboard fetes, you will pay for cocktails and wine at meals. (However, the line recently introduced an onboard beverage credit of up to 200 euros in free drinks, depending on cruise length.) There's also a charge for water and soft drinks consumed outside your stateroom. Certainly, in the burgeoning market for German-language cruises, Hapag-Lloyd's luxurious Europa reigns supreme over other Euro-centric lines like AIDA, Mein Schiff, Deilmann's Deutschland and TUI. It's so German that, without the guidebook's recognition, travelers who do not speak the language fluently never would know it existed.

Cabin sizes range from 300 ft2 / 28 m2 (plus balcony sized 75 ft2 / 7 m2) Veranda Suite up to 1065 ft2 / 99 m2 (terrace size 165 ft2 / 15 m2) Owner Suite. Combine selected cruises of EUROPA 2 and benefit from combination discounts, excursion credits and additional free services. During drydock 2022 (2-week project by Blohm+Voss, supervised by Trimline) were completely renovated 56 passenger staterooms, including flooring/new carpets, fixed furniture, soft furnishings, light fixtures and fittings. The boat has 11 decks, of which 8 are passenger-accessible and 5 with cabins. The Chef’s Garden Kitchen’s promises fresh and seasonal flavors, taking its cues from nature. Born in Sweden, the son of a produce seller, Niklas Ekstedt began his strong connection with nature and the Earth’s flavors at a young age.

MS Europa Hapag-Lloyd Cruises

ms europa cruise ship

The ship's nearly 900 pieces of original art are noteworthy, including works by Damien Hirst and David Hockney, as well as those of lesser-known contemporary artists especially designed for Europa 2. The ship has 7x Family Apartments (connecting suites) each consisting of two connecting cabins (2x215 ft2 / 2x20 m2) and two connecting balconies (2x75 ft2 / 2x7 m2). The 2013-built MS Europa 2 cruise ship is a top luxury vessel that entered service for Hapag-Lloyd in May 2013.

About Hapag-Lloyd Cruises

ms europa cruise ship

The vessel was launched (floated out from drydock) on July 6, 2012. On April 29, 2013, it was delivered to Hapag-Lloyd and on May 10th was christened - during the 824th Anniversary of Port Hamburg. The inaugural itinerary visited ports in Holland (Amsterdam), Belgium (Antwerp), France (Honfleur, La Rochelle, Bordeaux), Spain (Bilbao) and Portugal (Leixoes-Oporto) ending in Lisbon. MS Europa staterooms (204 total, in 10 grades) include 152 cabins with step-out balconies. The largest accommodations are the Penthouse Grand Suites (915 ft2 / 85 m2 with the terrace), the smallest are sized 290 ft2 / 27 m2 (balcony included). The Masters of the Sea pub has long been a favorite spot to grab a quick bite and to delight in the extensive beer list, but this will be the first time that it features an onboard brewery.

MS EUROPA 2 - Discover luxury cruises like never before

Well-designed room concepts and a great eye for detail are what make each suite truly special. Service crew are available around the clock to handle any requests you may have, as well as making sure the suites are cosy. They keep an eye on all the little details that make your suite feel like home. Hapag-Lloyd constantly strive to maintain a first-class standard of technical equipment and add modern touches to your private refuge. The latest renovation of the SPA and Veranda Suites is like a breath of fresh air. Various sizes and corresponding room concepts ensure plenty of space for accommodating your needs.

Room-service waiters clearly appreciated a couple of euros or dollars per order. There's no dress code, but passengers are usually smartly attired. Think upscale resort casual for daytime -- and we mean outfits that cost thousands of dollars, from names such as Bogner and Escada. (Ralph Lauren sportswear is considered low-end here, and the ship's boutique stopped carrying it.) There are no formal nights or captain's dinners. Evenings bring out expensive slacks and knee-length dresses for women, and sports jackets for men. The occasional cocktail dress is OK, but tuxedos or gowns are out of place on Europa 2.

Sweden’s Port Stockholm is open and receives cruise ship calls

The 1999-built MS Europa 1 cruise ship is owned by TUI Group (since July 2020) and operated by the German travel company Hapag-Lloyd Cruises. Feeling well at the highest level - that is the maxim of M/S Europe. Welcoming instead of overloaded, luxurious and generous instead of pompous and colorful, this is the way guests love their dream ship. Comfortable clothing is also recommended for the individually prepared excursions.

ms europa cruise ship

Her best luxurious features, from all-balconied staterooms to onboard cooking school make passengers come back for their next vacation - obviously enjoying very much the Hapag-Lloyd's new ship top luxury cruise prices. The ratio crew-to-guest ensures the needed relaxation and comfort, guaranteed with 370 crew members. MS Europa 2 is Hapag-Lloyd's first cruise ship with both German and English being official languages onboard. Ship highlights include four specialty restaurants included in the cruise cost, a bar boasting the largest collection of gin at sea, complimentary caviar nights and seven family-friendly connecting cabins, with kids' quarters stocked with toys.

Fizz - Champagne Bar

Most passengers hailed from Europa's strong base -- Germany, Austria and Switzerland -- though we met some very pleasant folks from other places, ranging from Hong Kong to Brussels. Even if we didn't really connect with our fellow travelers, we did find them to be unfailingly gracious, and never did we pass folks in the corridor without being offered a courteous "Guten Morgen" (good morning), "Guten Tag" (good day) or "Guten Abend" (good evening). Despite the fact the ship, built in 1999, is considered one of the older vessels in cruising's luxury niche, Europa has undergone three major refurbishments and has been impeccably maintained. Its all-outside, almost all-balcony accommodations are plush and spacious. The ship's itineraries are a sophisticated sightseer's dream; rarely does the vessel repeat an itinerary as it makes its way pretty much around the world each year.

Europa cruise ship was one of the first passenger vessels with ABB Azipod propulsion system, which reduces vibration towards the stern.

The ship features high-quality materials, silver-leaf ceilings, wide corridors and hand-blown Murano glass chandeliers. The Serenissima Italian restaurant is the only place where polished marble is used. Top German brands of tableware and deck furniture delight those with worldly tastes.

The 11-deck vessel, which launched in 2013 and was refreshed in dry dock two years later, marks a radical departure for Hapag-Lloyd. It's less formal and more family-oriented than Europa, the company's flagship luxury vessel. Europa 2 also aims to attract English-speaking cruisers from beyond its German-speaking base. Unlike Europa, all voyages on Europa 2 are bilingual, with virtually everyone from servers to cabin stewards and lecturers able to speak English or provide translation. MS Europa 1 passengers can also enjoy a fitness room, golf simulator, tennis court, shuffleboard, and driving range, as well as a deck for the guests who like nude sunbathing.

The shipowner TUI AG (Hanover Germany-based) is a British-German multinational currently ranked the world's largest leisure and travel company. TUI Group's companies specialize in hospitality and tourism services worldwide, with a portfolio including passenger airlines, cruise shipping, package vacations, hotels and resorts, travel agencies, retail shops. The HL's Europa cruise ship offers sophisticated theme cruises. The list of themed itineraries features culture (arts, literature, music cruises, "Ocean Sun Classical Music Festival" /an annual event at sea), science, family cruises, food and wine cruises. Golf Cruises are another set of themed voyages, on which Europa's guests can benefit from the company of top PGA golf instructors from Germany.

Don't expect a party atmosphere unless a festive group is aboard. In 2017, 3-time German Olympic champion Maria Hofl-Riesch offered special fitness sessions as ship's Director of sports and fitness program. Europa is a very dressy ship, with country-club resortwear favored during the day and three dress codes for nighttime guidance. There's casual-elegant (men are required to wear jackets) and elegant (ties required). On formal nights, tuxedos or dark suits are obligatory for every restaurant aside from the buffet venue.

The boat also features other bars and lounges (Pool Bar, Piano Bar, Havana Bar, Sansibar, Clipper Lounge, Auditorium, Atrium), as well as a library with Internet access. The swimming pool (20x75-m / 66x246 ft) is rarely crowded and partly covered with a glass dome. It is not without reason that the Berlitz Cruise Guide awarded the rating 5-star plus 19 times in a row, most recently in 2019.

Maritime lectures for better insight to the visited regions are often offered. The two golf simulators offer a selection of the world's top golf courses. Golf packages are available to purchase for playing different courses in ports of call. • Our ships offer the possibility of combining 2 or 3 connecting cabins based on the ship class. Call our Contact Center to choose the best accommodation for you. The ship will feature 13 dining venues, including an incredible six specialty restaurants, between which the Chef’s Garden Kitchen of Michelin-starred chef Niklas Ekstedt, that offers a menu which focus on the natural ingredients and a farm-to-ocean ethos.

So while you board with 20 points, you’ll still be given the Gold status at the start of the trip, giving you extra benefits. As you would expect, different membership levels provide different benefits. While you might think you’d earn higher status for spending more money on your cruise, that’s not the case. Whether you a sailing in an interior cabin or a top-of-the-line suite, they both earn you one point per day for your VIFP status.

Receiving the Loyalty Gifts

As you move higher in the program’s ranks, your benefits and privileges will improve. The color of your Sail & Sign card will reflect the tier that you’re on. There might be times where points don’t apply automatically or there might be cruises you took in the past that haven’t been added. From there, click on “My Cruises” and scroll down to “Claim a Past Cruise”. Enter your information about your missing cruise, and it will be reviewed to add the trip to your VIFP profile. In this case, Carnival grants passengers the higher status at the start of the cruise.

Benefits are meant to recognise individual members and are therefore not transferable to travel companions.Can a guest bring another guest to membership functions on board? Generally, benefits requiring an invitation are designated per member. Certain events invite eligible guests to bring one additional person as space permits.

What Are the VIFP Club Benefits?

Long cruises and spontaneous getaways will get you to the next level quicker than cruising once yearly. If you notice that some of your past cruises are missing from your VIFP account, you can submit a request to have them added. Go to the bottom of the ‘My Cruises,’ page and click ‘Claim a Past Cruise’ in the ‘Missing a Cruise? Here, we’re providing information on everything you need to know about the Carnival VIFP Club including how to become a member, how to earn points, and the Carnival VIFP Club benefits.

No matter what cabin you book onboard any of Carnival Cruise Line's ships, you will only receive one point per night. The Carnival VIFP Club is a points-based loyalty program that awards repeat cruisers with more perks the more they sail. Everyone who has already sailed with Carnival is automatically enrolled in the VIFP Club, but to view your loyalty status and other information you need to activate your account. Carnival also offers the "Milestone Rewards Program" to its VIFP members. On the 100th cruise milestone, members receive a complimentary Caribbean, Mexican Riviera, Alaska or Australia voyage of up to eight days for two people in accommodations up to the Ocean Suite level.

Whether you desire adventure, luxury, or exploration, High Seas Cruising is your compass to unforgettable cruise vacations. You don’t even need to take a cruise to become a blue-tier member. In past years, the pins have always included the funnel, but have varied with different nautical touches such as stylized waves, portholes, ropes, compasses, and ship’s wheels. The 2022 design was similarly colorful, with hearts, stars, stripes, and polka dots all incorporated into the Platinum and Diamond pin.

Carnival VIFP (Very Important Fun Person) Cruise Loyalty Program

Following the Blue level is Red, which is where you'll remain until you accrue 24 points. Gold Members have between 25 and 74 points, while Platinum Members have between 75 and 199. You’ll immediately start receiving cruise offers from Carnival by email, and you may be eligible for discounts or special offers on your first cruise but can opt out at any time. Getting to the Platinum tier takes 10 cruises, assuming you always sail seven-night voyages.

Even when you take a few years between cruises, you’ll keep the same points balance and status level. Even at the highest Diamond level of its VIFP Club program, Carnival still is a little stingy with the perks. Unlike Royal Caribbean and some other lines, for instance, it doesn't give members a free cruise upon reaching this pinnacle of loyalty status.

It takes up to three business days after a sailing for the system to update a guest's cruise history. If you notice a discrepancy, log into your personal profile on /VIFP and submit a request form. The request form can be found at the bottom of the 'Review My Cruise History' page in the 'Manage My Cruise History' tab. Please note, Carnival cannot process requests over the phone. Please be patient, the process may take 2-3 weeks to complete.I was only a sail or two away from becoming Platinum in the previous recognition program.

You earn one point for every day you cruise on a Carnival ship. Even if you’ve never cruised with Carnival before, join the club today — the benefits begin today. It should be noted that the collectible pins are in addition to other VIFP gifts, such as the trio of navy blue, red-trimmed bags that have been distributed in recent months. Carnival Cruise Line brand ambassador John Heald has announced the new “Very Important Fun Person” (VIFP) club loyalty pin design for 2024, a subtle but lovely style Carnival fans are sure to appreciate. Today is the third time Heald has referenced changes to the program.

Gold-level cruisers (25-74 points) receive Gold VIFP pins as well. All pins must also be collected at the Pixels Photo Gallery onboard. What’s likely not to change, however, is how they measure the program in number of nights. With that said, there is some chatter that Carnival could add cruiser spend into the calculation, in addition to nights. For example, those who book a suite accommodation or spend more on board could get more VIFP points for a given sailing.

Alternatively, you can check the color of your Sail and Sign Card as the start of each cruise. Carnival rolls out the Diamond carpet for their most loyal passengers (figuratively, of course), with all of the Platinum benefits plus a host of other perks. You’ll receive a Gold VIFP pin on every cruise in addition to the Red benefits.

So if you earn 25 points within the program but then don’t sail for a few years, you’ll still have the same point level and status as before. This is different than loyalty programs like with airlines where the points you earn often “drop off” after a length of time. If you’ve earned Gold status, then you don’t have to worry about being dropped back to Red status just because you don’t sail for a while.

Many frequent cruisers, for example, have received the snap koozie gift several times, as it is has been available for some time. However, not all ships will have the new loyalty gifts due to delivery issues. Signing up for a Carnival website account allows you to access the line's full array of planning and booking tools. Then when you sail, you'll start picking up benefits likecollectible Carnival items, invites to members-only cocktail receptions, priority boarding and more. During the cruise, you’ll get a complimentary beverage at the Seaday Brunch. A complimentary chocolate delight will be delivered to your room on cruises for five nights or longer.

That said, Diamond status does bring a few nice privileges. One of the nice little surprises of Carnival's loyalty program is that you hit the first tier level, Blue, the moment you walk on board your first cruise with the brand. Unlike many lines, you don't have to complete a cruise to get to the first level. In fact, you can get to the Blue tier even before taking a cruise.

What happens if I reach a new VIFP tier in the middle of a cruise?

It's recommended that all guests activate their VIFP Club membership at least eight weeks prior to their next sailing to ensure they're recognized as a member of their correct level. Did you find this guide to everything you need to know about the Carnival VIFP Club helpful? Drop us an anchor below to share if you prefer to stay loyal to a brand for these benefits or sail with various cruise lines.

Carnival Cruise Line Reveals New Loyalty Pins

Past gifts have been Bluetooth speakers, blankets, headphones, tote bags, and mugs. This means that you don’t need to sail within a certain time frame from your last cruise to keep your points, which is the case with some other lines. Even if your last Carnival cruise was a decade ago, you will still retain your VIFP points. If you haven’t yet taken your first cruise, we recommend joining the VIFP Club ahead of time. To activate your account or join for the first time, go to Carnival Cruise Line’s VIFP webpage and click the ‘join’ button. When you click the button, you’ll need to input your email address and create a password.

Otherwise, invitations are exclusive and cannot be transferred or shared. Some perks, such as those including alcohol and arcade credits, are age restricted. The highest level, Diamond, is reserved for those loyal to Carnival who have earned 200 points. This is a pretty low threshold considering that some lines, such as Norwegian Cruise Line, require 700 points for their highest tier. The entry-level tier is Blue, and this is where you'll remain until after you've completed your first Carnival cruise, whether it's 3-nights or 7-nights.

Cobranded Cards

To restrict the free drink to the last night of a cruise, in our eyes, seems like an inordinate effort on the part of Carnival to discourage customers from using what already is a pretty paltry perk. Gold level members also get a Gold VIFP pin on every sailing. Heald has reached out to the cruise line’s leadership team to request that stateroom delivery of the gifts resume, as many guests appreciate that extra touch. As yet, there is no confirmation of whether or not the delivery will return or if guests will need to continue picking up their rewards at Pixels. In previous years, gifts were hand-delivered to guests’ staterooms, either awaiting them on embarkation day or as a nice surprise during the sailing.

In comparison, to become a Pinnacle member in Royal Caribbean's Crown & Anchor Society, you have to have a whopping 700 points. I agree to VIFP Terms and Conditions and Privacy Notice for partnerships. You can get a detailed look at the VIFP program and unique perks here. You’ll be able to access VIP lounges, priority terminal access, priority Captain’s Lounge entry, and even free drinks at cocktail receptions and VIP parties. Still, you might have questions regarding the program, how it works, and the benefits for members. In case you're wondering, VIFP stands for "very important fun person" — a playful nod to Carnival's nickname as the "fun ship" line.

VIFP Club members will automatically move from one level to the next level based on their VIFP Points and will receive the benefits of their level on each sailing. Please note that ‘debarkation day’ is not considered a ‘cruise day’, therefore, points are not earned for that day. I activated my account but noticed that all of my cruises were not included. Carnival wants to ensure than all eligible cruises are captured in guests' cruise history.

You can access your account information and profile once you’ve signed up for an account. You can also find out what benefits you’ll get based on how much you’ve cruised. Read on to learn about the different tiers of Carnival’s VIFP loyalty program and the benefits you get to enjoy with each tier.

Diamond Level (200+ points)

You’ll receive Carnival’s VIFP Club newsletter at this level and qualify for special cruise offers. So if you sailed a seven-day cruise last summer and have a five-day cruise booked for next year, then you will only have seven points as a member, not 12. With higher status, a passenger earns perks and rewards, including everything from special fares to freebies on the ship to expedited boarding and much more.

The most common and reliable way to earn by far, however, is to sail on the cruise line. The Blue tier doesn’t have many perks worth getting excited about. Each tier has a color represented as the background of your Sail & Sign card. We'll send you the latest cruise updates daily to your inbox. We’d love to hear what you’d want to see in the new VIFP Club. Even though it might take a little bit longer to accumulate points, the highest tier of Carnival's VIFP Club, or Very Important Fun Person Club, only requires 200 points.

The loyalty club offers exclusive perks for Carnival passengers, including coveted Diamond level benefits like priority water shuttle boarding and a complimentary dinner at a specialty restaurant. I have already sailed with Carnival before and previously received a color-coded Sail and Sign card. Guests who sailed with Carnival on more than 10 cruises by December 31, 2013 were automatically included in the Platinum level of the VIFP Club. Additionally, some guests who previously received Platinum cards advanced to the VIFP Club's Diamond level.

Whether or not one believes $$$ equals loyalty is likely irrelevant to Carnival as they look to bring in as much income as they can to pay down debt taken on during the pandemic. This could mean the number of nights to reach a specific tier becomes larger, or, it could signal an overhaul of the tier system altogether. More and more, we’ve seen Carnival limit the benefits to Platinum and Diamond cruisers as the cruise operator struggles to deliver based on the number of loyal cruisers on board. Carnival VIFP benefits will not be extended to passengers sailing with other lines in the Carnival Corporation portfolio. Sailing with those lines will allow passengers to accrue points under the loyalty programs of those respective lines and not under the VIFP program.

That’s why we would suggest searching with and without the club number entered, just to be sure you’re getting the best rate. If you achieve a higher tier status during a cruise, you will enjoy the benefits of that tier for the whole trip. Your status level depends on the number of points you accumulate. When you choose to apply (and are approved) for a new credit card through our site, we may receive compensation from our partners, and this may impact how or where these products appear. Please view our advertising policy and product review methodology for more information.

If you always book seven-night sailings, you'll reach the Gold tier after three cruises. That's right, while the Gold tier requires 25 points, you can reach it after sailing three seven-night cruises. The Gold tier adds a single free drink that only can be ordered on the last night of a cruise (and only on cruises of five nights or longer).
