A quick guide to Royal Caribbean’s Crown & Anchor Society
What is Royal Caribbean’s Crown & Anchor Society?
Royal Caribbean’s Crown & Anchor Society is a loyalty programme that rewards guests that book multiple Royal Caribbean cruises. Earning points with each cruise you take, you can start to collect points (and therefore benefits) from the moment you complete your first sailing. Benefits that you can take advantage of on land and onboard, there are six different membership levels within the club.
In this guide, we’ll take you through the different Royal Caribbean Crown & Anchor benefits, membership levels, and more useful information. Keep reading to find out more!
Royal Caribbean’s Crown & Anchor membership levels
There are six published membership tiers in the Crown & Anchor Society. If you are a US or Canadian resident, you’ll be automatically enrolled in the programme after your first Royal Caribbean cruise. Guests residing outside the US or Canada can join by completing an online registration form, calling Royal Caribbean, or visiting the onboard Loyalty Ambassador during their cruise.

| Platinum | 30 points |
| Emerald | 55 points |
| Diamond | 80 points |

Standard Cabin: 1 point per night
