Strangely I didn't get anything from Princess or HAL offering me a $300 credit because I was a previous cruiser we both of them......
The one smart move CCL could actually make is to put all their separate programs under one program, but that won't happen.

The Carnival brands don't do status matches, but I think past guests of one are supposed to be eligible for the past guest discounts on all of them. Even status matches would be difficult since the tiers aren't really comparable across brands, whereas Celebrity and Royal Caribbean basically have the same tiers and eligibility requirements, just with different names.
Anyway, I don't really care much, other than that Cunard gives me a certain amount of free Internet time, which is nice since it's actually useful. I don't really care much about lapel pins or cocktail parties or the other various stuff one usually gets.
