Celebrity Cruises is giving loyalty members another reason to book a cruise this fall by expanding its end-of-summer sale with a double points promotion on certain itineraries!
Starting today, September 8, Captain’s Club members can earn twice the usual Club Points on qualifying cruises booked through September 21, 2026. The offer gives travelers an opportunity to build their loyalty points balance faster while combining the incentive with several of Celebrity’s other promotions.
The offer covers Caribbean sailings departing between October 1, 2026, and April 30, 2027, as well as Celebrity Infinity sailings departing between November 1, 2026, and March 31, 2027. Transatlantic and transpacific sailings are excluded.
Although the eligible cruises extend into next spring, travelers must make their reservations during the September 8–21 booking window. The promotion applies to new individual and named group bookings.
Each Captain’s Club member can earn double points on up to two qualifying cruises booked during that period. Anyone booking more than two eligible sailings will receive the promotion on the two cruises with the earliest departure dates.
For solo travelers, the offer has an additional benefit. Guests traveling alone and paying full fare will receive one extra set of Club Points on top of the double points promotion, for a total of three times the usual points.
The points calculation will be based on the original stateroom rate category purchased. Upgrading later, including through Celebrity’s MoveUp bidding program, will not increase the points awarded under the offer. A valid Captain’s Club membership number must also be attached to the reservation.
Members will not receive the points immediately after booking. Celebrity Cruises says they will be credited within 30 days after the cruise sails, provided the reservation has been paid in full.
Cruisers can combine the double points incentive with a range of eligible discounts and offers. These include Celebrity’s BOGO75 promotion, free third- and fourth-guest offers, instant savings, onboard credit flash sales, weekend flash sales and Book Now Bonus.
The terms also permit combinations with senior, resident and military offers; Exciting Deals; GroupX; employee friends-and-family promo codes; targeted brand offers; Captain’s Club discounts; shareholder benefits; CUGs; and future cruise certificate bookings redeemed during the promotional period.
Promotions outside the specified list cannot be combined with the double points offer, which is also excluded from Celebrity’s Best Price Guarantee. Points awarded in connection with the double points promotion are not eligible for Points Choice and will be forfeited if a member submits a Points Transfer Request.
Changes to a qualifying reservation may also cause the promotion to be removed. The offer and cruise prices remain subject to availability, cancellation and change without notice.
For Captain’s Club members considering a Caribbean getaway or a Celebrity Infinity sailing, the promotion adds a loyalty incentive to a new booking. The key is to book by September 21 and confirm that the sailing and any accompanying discounts meet the offer’s requirements.
You can review the full terms and conditions on Celebrity Cruises’ website.
What is Celebrity Cruises’ Captain’s Club?
Captain’s Club is Celebrity Cruises’ free loyalty program, rewarding guests with benefits as they accumulate Club Points. Travelers can enroll before their first cruise and add their membership number to their reservation to begin earning points.
The number of points earned depends on the stateroom category and how many nights a guest sails. On ocean cruises, inside and ocean-view cabins normally earn two points per night, while veranda and Infinite Veranda accommodations earn three.
Concierge Class and AquaClass earn five points per night, with suites earning higher amounts depending on the category.
The program has six membership tiers:
- Preview: 0 Club Points
- Classic: 2–149 Club Points
- Select: 150–299 Club Points
- Elite: 300–749 Club Points
- Elite Plus: 750–2,999 Club Points
- Zenith: 3,000 or more Club Points
Benefits grow with each tier. Select members receive spa and laundry discounts, while Elite members gain complimentary laundry benefits and access to the Captain’s Club cocktail hour. Elite Plus adds specialty dining discounts and expanded laundry benefits.
At the highest level, Zenith members receive perks including complimentary Premium beverage and Wi-Fi packages, subject to program terms.
For cruisers working toward their next tier, the double points offer can make a pretty significant difference.
For example, a 7-night veranda cruise would ordinarily earn 21 Club Points. Under this promotion, an eligible booking would earn 42 points. A member starting with 260 points would therefore reach 302 points, crossing the 300-point threshold for Elite once the points are credited.
