Carnival cruisers that have reached the highest levels of the Cruise Line, Platinum and Diamond VIFP loyalty program (a very important delayed person) have a reputation that they sometimes act right.
Carnival Cruise Line’s ambassador John Hynd often receives complaints on his popular Facebook page from some of these high -status travelers requiring special board treatment.

The reputation acquired by platinum and diamond carnival cruisers has also led to rumors of ways in which these cruisers flaunt their status over others on board.
As Carnival issues passengers aboard Sail & Sign’s key cards in colors that mean their levels in the VIFP program, the fact that some platinum and diamond cruisers carry these belts of their necks around their necks send the wrong message to some cruisers.
John Hang has recently dedicated a video on Facebook to this cruise class dispute in an attempt to fight the most rumor and share his point of view of loyalty.

Transcript:
John Hynd: Good morning, good day for my friends in Cleveland, New Zealand and Australia, good evening. I don’t know why I say it every time.
Welcome to today’s three -minute video and this morning we will talk a little about a post I received yesterday from someone I will call Michael, because that’s his name.
And Michael says, “A big discussion about cruise critic. Is Grand Pooh Bear – and in brackets: Heald lol, take care to comment? – It is said that most diamonds and platinum [VIFPs] Wear your Sail & Sign card on their straps at any time to impress the low gold, red and blue. Of course, they do it. What about John? “
Well, thank you, Michael, Mickey. I think it is brilliant, by the way, that you put a critic critic with capital C and Capital C, but when you wrote my name, not only did you not call me John, but Hield is in all small cases, so there is no capital for my name. It doesn’t bother me at least and if you tried to get under my skin, it doesn’t work. It doesn’t work.

Carnival cruisers are proud to be loyal
Well, seriously, I think some of our most loyal guests carry their Sail & Sign map on a strap to show, just how proud they are about their loyalty. Now it’s a very cruise. You will never see this on Airlines Cleveland with a member of Diamond Platinum Elite walks along a path with an airline around their neck.
It’s just a cruise, but even though I think it’s most comfortable, I think many or some of our most loyal guests want to show their loyalty and it’s not to look at people who are not diamond or platinum. It’s just to say, “Look what I did, look what I have achieved. I’m proud. I love the carnival.”

And the last three words that I would like to think is the reason most people who have reached these levels carry their key to the cabin around the belt. So this is my answer.
It will be interesting for me to see what others have to say about this, but I would say that 99% of our diamond guests and platinum carry their card around their neck, simply because they are proud. Nothing more and nothing smaller.
More news about a carnival cruise:
There is still no news about changes to the Carnival loyalty program
Now I have no news about the new loyalty program. As soon as I do, of course, we will share it in the usual way.
They say that if you want to talk about loyalty, you should talk about a pet and that always reminds me of this story:
There are three pets. They pass and go to heaven and meet with God. And God wants to know what they believe in, and he first looks at the German Shepherd and says, “What do you believe in?” And the German Shepherd says, “I believe in discipline and loyalty to my family,” and God said, “Well done, you can sit on my right.”
Then he looks at the next pet. This is a shi -tsu -not where the joke goes -this is shi -tsu, but God says to Shi -Tsu: “What do you believe in?” And Shich Tsu says, “I believe in love and care and cuddling and loyalty,” and God said, “You can sit on my left.”
And then God looks at the cat and tells the cat, “What do you believe in?” And the cat looks at God and says, “I believe you are sitting in my place.”
