Frequently Asked Questions
- Captain's Club FAQs
- FAQs Overview
What is Captain's Club and how do I join?
Captain's Club is Celebrity Cruises' recognition and rewards program. There are currently six tiers: Preview, Classic, Select, Elite, Elite Plus and Zenith. The more you sail, the more rewarding your experience becomes. To enroll click here .
Does Captain’s Club offer reciprocity with Royal Caribbean Cruises International?
Celebrity's Captain's Club program offers reciprocity with Royal Caribbean's Crown & Anchor program. Captain's Club Select members receive Crown & Anchor Platinum benefits. Captain's Club Elite members receive Crown & Anchor Diamond benefits. The same holds true for Crown & Anchor members members when sailing on Celebrity. Credits are not combinable across brands; however, as members move up in tier, the membership level will be automatically upgraded across all enrolled programs. If you are currently a member of both Captain's Club and Crown & Anchor programs, you will automatically receive benefits based on your highest membership level between the two. The benefits of the two programs will stay independent, and the number of sailings a member accrues on each brand will not be combined. You will earn the tier credit for the brand you are sailing as long as you are a member of that brand's loyalty program.
If you are a Captain's Club member but not a member of the Crown & Anchor Society, and plan on sailing with Royal Caribbean, or you are a Crown & Anchor member but not a Captain's Club member and plan on sailing with Celebrity Cruises®, please call the Captain’s Club at 1-844-418-6824 if within the U.S. or contact your International Office or Representative if outside the U.S. to enroll in the equivalent tier.
Also, please remember to provide your membership number when booking a Celebrity cruise to ensure you receive your Club Points and benefits while sailing.
Where can I view my Captain’s Club points and status?
Once enrolled in the Captain’s Club program, you will need to create a Guest Account to manage and view your membership. Once signed into your Guest Account, your Captain’s Club number, Tier and Club Points will be displayed. A Guest Account will also, allow you to manage your cruise vacations.
Click here for a step-by-step enrollment video .
See more FAQs on Guest Account here .
How do I get Club Points that have not posted to my Captain’s Club membership?
Club points can take up to 14 days to post to your account. If after 14 days, you still do not see your club points, call the Captain’s Club at 1-844-418-6824.
For United Kingdom, please call: 0344 493 2065* For Republic of Ireland, please call: 1800 932 662*
How are Club Points calculated?
Club Points are earned based on stateroom category purchased and length of cruise including Cruisetours when you sail with Celebrity Cruises. It is possible for you to earn between 2 and 24 points per night depending on your stateroom category. Guest travelling as a single traveler in a stateroom, and paying full fare will earn double the amount of Club Points, based on stateroom category and number of nights sailed (as of July 1, 2014).
Club Points can also be earned through the Power Up Points program. Power Up Points can be earned for various non-sailing activities such as taking surveys or participating in social media activities. Opportunities to earn Power Up Points are emailed to eligible members by Celebrity Cruises from time to time. Power Up Points convert to Club Points at a ratio of 10 Power Up Points to 1 Club Point.
Complimentary sailings, Seminar at Sea, Travel Agent rates, and employee rates do not earn Club Points in the program. Reduced fare upgrades, Move-up upgrades and Guarantee staterooms earn points at the original stateroom category booked and not the category of the upgraded stateroom or stateroom sailed.
If your account is linked to another member’s account through a spousal or partner relationship, both members will have access to the points and tier associated with the member with more Club Points. In this instance, points are still earned by each individual member. But if one member’s points are higher, the other member’s balance and tier will be lifted. If the accounts are ever separated, both members will only have access to their points and tier earned individually. See full terms & conditions .

5.5.c. MANDATORY ARBITRATION.
PLEASE READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY. IT AFFECTS YOUR RIGHTS IF THERE IS A DISPUTE.
Except as otherwise provided in the Cruise Ticket Contract , any dispute or claim between you and us must be arbitrated. This agreement to arbitrate is intended to be broadly interpreted.
These CC Program Rules requires you and us to resolve most disputes in arbitration after first trying to resolve them between us. Arbitration is less formal than a lawsuit in court and uses a neutral arbitrator instead of a judge or jury. Discovery is more limited in arbitration than in a court proceeding. Arbitrators can award the same individualized remedies that a court can award. Their rulings are legally binding and subject to very limited review by courts. Arbitration will take place on an individual basis. Class and representative proceedings are not allowed, and you and we cannot seek, and arbitrators cannot award, relief on behalf of others.
BY AGREEING TO ARBITRATE, YOU AND WE EACH WAIVE THE RIGHT TO SUE IN COURT, TO TRIAL BY JURY, OR TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE ACTION. This Section shall survive termination of the CC Program Rules or any other agreement between you and us.
i. Pre-Arbitration Notice of Disputes and Informal Resolution.
Before either you or we commence arbitration, the claimant must first send a written notice of dispute to the other (“Notice”). Any such Notice to Company must be sent by U.S. certified mail or professional courier service to Company c/o: Legal Dept, Celebrity Cruises Inc., 1050 Caribbean Way, Miami, Florida 33132 (“Notice Address”). Any such Notice to you will be sent to your address on file with us, or an address we may ascertain after conducting a public records search. The Notice must include: (a) the claimant’s name, mailing address, email address, and phone number; (b) the claimant’s Membership Number (if applicable); (c) a description of the nature and basis of the claim or dispute; and (d) the specific relief sought. The Notice must be personally signed by you (if you are the claimant), or by our business representative (if we are the claimant). Electronic signatures are not acceptable. If you have retained an attorney to submit your Notice, please also provide signed written authorization allowing us to share your data with your attorney.
After the Notice containing all of the information above has been received, within 90 days, either you or we may request an individualized discussion (by telephone or videoconference) regarding settlement (“Informal Settlement Conference”). You and we must work together in good faith to select a mutually agreeable time during business hours for the Informal Settlement Conference (which can be after the 90-day period). You and our business representative must both personally participate in the Informal Settlement Conference, unless otherwise agreed in writing. Your and our lawyers (if any) may also participate.
Any applicable statute of limitations or contractual limitations periods will be tolled during the “Informal Resolution Period,” which is the period between the date that a fully complete Notice is received by either you or us and the later of: (i) 60 days later; or (ii) the date an Informal Settlement Conference is completed, if timely requested.
ii. Commencing Arbitration.
An arbitration proceeding cannot be commenced until after the Informal Resolution Period has ended. Any court of competent jurisdiction will have authority to enforce this Section including the power to enjoin the filing or prosecution of arbitrations without first providing a fully complete Notice and participating in a timely requested Informal Settlement Conference. Any court of competent jurisdiction also may enjoin the assessment or collection of arbitration fees incurred as a result of such arbitrations. Further, unless prohibited by applicable law, the arbitrator shall not accept nor administer any arbitration unless the claimant has complied with the Notice and Informal Settlement Conference requirements.
iii. Arbitration Procedure.
The arbitration will be governed by the Consumer Arbitration Rules (“ AAA Rules ”) of the American Arbitration Association (“ AAA ”), as modified by this Section, and will be administered by the AAA. (If the AAA is unavailable or unwilling to administer arbitrations consistent with this Section another arbitration provider shall be selected by mutual agreement or by the court.) The AAA Rules are available online at www.adr.org or by writing to the Notice Address. As in court, you and we agree that any counsel representing someone in arbitration certifies that they will comply with the requirements of Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 11(b), including a certification that the claim or the relief sought is neither frivolous nor brought for an improper purpose. The arbitrator is authorized to impose any sanctions available under that rule, the AAA Rules, or applicable federal or state law against all appropriate represented parties and counsel. The arbitrator may consider rulings in arbitrations involving different claimants against us, but an arbitrator’s ruling is not binding in other proceedings. Except as provided in this Section below, the arbitrator shall apply the substantive law that governs these CC Program Rules, and can award the same individualized remedies (including punitive and statutory damages and statutory attorney’s fees and costs) that a court could award under applicable law. Unless you and we agree otherwise, the arbitration will be decided based on papers submitted by you and us. The arbitrator shall issue a reasoned written decision sufficient to explain the essential findings and conclusions on which the award is based.
During the arbitration, the amount of any settlement offer shall not be disclosed to the arbitrator until after the arbitrator determines the amount, if any, to which either you or we are entitled.
iv. Arbitration Fees.
We will pay all AAA filing, administration, case-management, hearing, and arbitrator fees ( “AAA Fees ”) if we initiate an arbitration. If the aggregate value of your claims is US$750 or less, we will pay all AAA Fees, so long as you have fully complied with the Notice and Informal Settlement Conference requirements in this Section. In such cases, we will pay the filing fee directly to the AAA upon receiving a written request at the Notice Address that you have commenced arbitration or, if the AAA makes you pay the filing fee, we will send that amount to the AAA and request that the AAA reimburse you. If, however, the arbitrator finds that either the substance of your claim or the relief you seek is frivolous or brought for an improper purpose (as measured by the standards set forth in Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 11(b)), then the payment of all such fees will be governed by the AAA Rules. If the aggregate value of your claims is US$750 or more, you will pay all AAA Fees. In such cases, you agree to reimburse us for all monies previously disbursed that are otherwise your obligation to pay under the AAA Rules or this Section. For mass arbitration filings, you agree to pay all administrative fees for AAA to initiate the mediation process for the mass arbitration filings.
v. Requirement of Individual Arbitration.
The arbitrator may award declaratory or injunctive relief only in favor of the individual claimant seeking relief and only to the extent necessary to provide relief warranted by that claimant’s individual claim. YOU AND WE AGREE THAT EACH MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY IN YOUR OR OUR INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY, AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS, REPRESENTATIVE, OR PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL PROCEEDING. Further, unless both you and we agree otherwise, the arbitrator may not consolidate the claims of more than one person, and may not otherwise preside over any form of a representative, class, or private attorney general proceeding. If, after exhaustion of all appeals, any of these prohibitions on non-individualized declaratory or injunctive relief; class, representative, and private attorney general proceedings; and consolidation are found to be unenforceable with respect to a particular claim or with respect to a particular request for relief (such as a request for injunctive relief), then that claim or request for relief shall be severed and decided by a court after all other claims and requests for relief have been arbitrated.
vi. Mass Arbitrations.
If 25 or more claimants submit Notices or seek to file arbitrations raising similar claims and are represented by the same or coordinated counsel (whether such cases are pursued simultaneously or not), all the cases must be resolved in staged proceedings. You agree to this process even though it may delay the arbitration of your claim. In the first stage, we and claimants’ counsel will each select up to 25 cases (50 cases total) to be filed in arbitration and resolved individually by different arbitrators. In the meantime, no other cases may be filed or proceed in arbitration, and the AAA must not assess or demand payment of fees for the remaining cases or administer or accept them.
The arbitrators are encouraged to resolve the cases within 120 days of appointment or as swiftly as possible thereafter, consistent with fairness to the parties. After the first stage is completed, the claimants must engage in a single mediation of all remaining cases, and we will pay the mediation fee. If the remaining claimants and we cannot agree how to resolve the remaining cases after mediation, we and claimants’ counsel will repeat the process of selecting and filing up to 50 cases to be resolved individually by different arbitrators, followed by mediation.
If any claims remain after the second stage, the process will be repeated until all claims are resolved, with four differences. First, a total of 100 cases may be filed in the third and later stages. Second, the cases will be randomly selected. Third, arbitrators who decided cases in the first two stages may be appointed in later stages if different arbitrators are not available. Fourth, mediation is optional at the election of counsel for the claimants.
Between stages, counsel will meet and confer regarding ways to improve the efficiency of the staged proceedings, including whether to increase the number of cases filed in each stage. Either party may also negotiate with AAA regarding the amount or timing of AAA fees.
If this Section applies to a Notice, the Informal Resolution Period for the claims and relief set forth in that Notice will be extended (including the tolling of any applicable statute of limitations or contractual limitations period for the claims and requested relief) until that Notice is selected for a staged proceeding, withdrawn, or otherwise resolved. A court will have the authority to enforce this Section, including by enjoining the mass filing, the prosecution or administration of arbitrations, or the assessment or collection of AAA fees.
This subsection and each of its requirements are intended to be severable from the rest of Section. If, after exhaustion of all appeals, a court decides that the staging process in this Section not enforceable, then the cases may be filed in arbitration and the payment of AAA filing, administration, case-management, hearing, and arbitrator fees will be assessed as the arbitrations advance and arbitrators are appointed rather than when the arbitrations are initiated.
vii. Future Changes to this Section.
Notwithstanding any provision in these CC Program Rules to the contrary, you and we agree that if we make any future change to this Section (other than a change to the Notice Address), you may reject that change by sending us written notice within thirty (30) days of the first notice of the change to the Notice Address provided above. To be effective, your rejection must include your name, mailing address, email address, phone number, booking reference, and a statement personally signed by you that you wish to reject the change to this Section. By rejecting that future change, you are agreeing that you will arbitrate any dispute or claim between you and us in accordance with the language of this provision, as amended by any changes that you did not timely reject.
Captain's Club Supplemental Terms & Conditions
Your membership status.
To qualify for enrollment in the Captain's Club, you must be 18 years of age or older.
Your Captain's Club membership falls into one of six tiers: Preview (prior to sailing), Classic (after earning 2 Club Points), Select (after earning 150 Club Points), Elite (after earning 300 Club Points), Elite Plus (after earning 750 Club Points) and Zenith (after earning 3,000 Club Points). After you complete qualifying sailings or activities, your membership will automatically advance to the applicable membership level. You will enjoy your new membership benefits on the sailing after you reach the next membership level. Your membership number will remain the same as you advance to the next level.
Club Points
Celebrity Cruises Captain's Club membership tiers are based on Club Points. Prior to November 25, 2013, members earned one credit for sailing, one credit by sailing on an itinerary of 12-nights or longer, including Cruisetours (applicable to sailings on or after January 1, 2003); and earned one credit by sailing in a Concierge Class stateroom, AquaClass® stateroom, or Suite (applicable to sailings on or after January 1, 2004). After November 25, 2013, credits were converted to Club Points at a ratio of 1 credit to 30 Club Points. Club Points are earned based on stateroom category purchased and length of cruise including Cruisetours. Club points are awarded once per sailing. Celebrity Cruises makes it possible for you to earn up to 24 Club Points per night. Club points can also be earned through the Power Up Points program offered by Celebrity Cruises. For sailings returning after February 12, 2022, Edge Villas earn 18 points per night and the Iconic Suite earns 24 points per night. Sailings that returned prior to February 12, 2022, Edge Villas earned 12 points per night and the Iconic Suite earned 18 points per night.
Complimentary sailings, Seminar at Sea, Travel Agent rates, and employee rates do not earn Club Points in the program. Reduced rate upgrades, pre-cruise and onboard, will earn Club Points at the original stateroom category purchased, and NOT the category of the upgraded stateroom. Accepted offers in the Celebrity MoveUp program will earn Captain’s Club points at the original stateroom category purchased, and not the category of the upgraded stateroom. Club Points will not be awarded for Celebrity City Stay, Book & Go or any other vacation package.
Power Up Points can be earned by eligible members in the US, Canada, UK, Ireland, Australia and New Zealand for various non-sailing activities such as taking surveys, participating in social media activities and making bookings. Power Up Points convert to Club points at a ratio of 10 Power Up Points to 1 Club Point. All Power Up Points earned in a calendar month are converted to Club Points and added to a participating member’s Club Point balance within 14 days of month’s end. Club Points converted from Power Up Points in a given month will be rounded up to the nearest whole Club Point. All terms and conditions of a Power Up Points activity must be met to be eligible to receive the associated Power Up Points. Eligible members may participate once per activity. Point discrepancies must be submitted within 1 year of the activity date. Point discrepancies older than 1 year will not be reviewed or accepted. The processing of personal information related to Power Up Points activities is subject to our Privacy Policy available here: https://www.celebritycruises.com/privacy-policy and our Social Media Fan Page Notice available here: https://www.celebritycruises.com/company/social . Certain Power Up Points activities may be construed as financial incentive(s) under the California Consumer Privacy Act. You may opt in/out by your participation in any Power Up Point activity. Club Points converted from Power Up Points are subject to all terms and conditions of the Captains Club program. Power Up Points and Captains Club program terms and conditions are subject to change at any point without prior notice.
Relationship Points and Status
If two adult members over the age of 18 reside at the same address, they have the option to link their member accounts together by calling 1-800-760-0654. While each member still earns points based on their individual sailing activity, both will have access to the points and tier level associated with the member who has the higher Club Point balance. If the members ever stop residing at the same address, Celebrity may unlink the accounts. Members can also request their accounts be unlinked by calling 1-800-760-0654. Each member will then only have access to the points and tier earned individually.
For example, if member A has 100 points and member B has 175 points, individually, member A is a Classic member, and member B is a Select member. However, if member A and member B link their accounts, member A would then have 175 “relationship” points and Select status as well.
- If member A takes another sailing and earns an additional 35 points, member A would then have 135 “individual” points but still only 175 “relationship” points and Select status.
- If member A and B stop residing at the same address and the accounts are unlinked, member A would have 135 “individual” points and revert back to Classic status. Member B would retain all 175 “individual” points and remain at Select status.
Single Travelers
Guest travelling as a single traveler in a stateroom will earn double the amount of Club Points, based on stateroom category and number of nights sailed. This applies to all sailings on or after July 1, 2014, and to all Captain's Club members including Preview members. Single travelers receive one set of offers per sailing. However, any bonus points that a single traveler qualifies for will not also be doubled. For example, a single traveler that qualifies for a double points promotion will receive an extra set of Club Points for being a single traveler and an extra set of Club points for booking a qualifying sailing for a total of 3x Club Points.
Go Green℠ is a program offered by Celebrity Cruises where guests can opt-in to receive reduced housekeeping services while onboard. Captain’s Club members that opt-in to this program will receive an extra night’s worth of Club Points based on their stateroom category (“Go Green Bonus Points”).
To participate, members can opt-in online pre-cruise at https://cloud.na.celebritycruises.com/GOGREEN_OPTIN or onboard during embarkation day. Opt-in will not be permitted after embarkation day. One guest per stateroom must opt-in for each sailing. Information provided must be correct or points will not be awarded.
Go Green Bonus Points will be awarded for all Captain’s Club members in a participating stateroom. Go Green Bonus Points will be equal to one extra night of points based on the member’s stateroom category for the participating voyage. Reduced rate upgrades, including those won as part of the Move Up program, will earn Go Green Bonus Points at the original stateroom category booked (not the upgraded level). Go Green Bonus Points will be awarded once per eligible member. Go Green Bonus Points are excluded from any other Club point promotions. If a stateroom opts-out of the Go Green program before the end of the voyage, members in that stateroom will not receive the Go Green Bonus Points. Different than base points, Go Green Bonus Points are not doubled for single travelers paying full fare. Go Green Bonus points will be awarded within 10 business day post cruise.
Non-members that opt-in for Go Green must enroll in Captain’s Club to receive the Go Green Bonus Points.
