I f you are a member of a loyalty program of other travel brands — such as lodging companies, tour companies or other cruising companies — one cruise line offers a loyalty status match program which you might want to consider if a cruise is in your future.
Join the MSC Voyagers Club loyalty program by MSC Cruises and receive the matching elite level status card, which will guarantee you a discount of five percent on any booking in addition to similar or higher benefit elite level status.
There are three easy steps to requesting and receiving your elite level status match:
- Fill in and complete this registration form
- Submit the registration form with existing benefit elite level status card information — all fields are mandatory
- Receive an e-mail message from the MSC Voyagers Club team with your new MSC Voyagers Club membership information
Be aware that elite status matches from frequent flier loyalty programs of airlines are excluded from this offer.
Terms and Conditions
The following select list of terms and conditions have not been edited by me:
Matching is carried out by comparing as much as reasonably possible the level of benefits guaranteed from the external travel program benefit card with those offered by the MSC Voyagers Club cards (Conversion will be executed by MSC Cruises based on objective criteria and may only be done once per consumer).
Clients will physically receive their membership card once on-board for their first cruise with MSC Cruises. It is not possible to combine MSC Voyagers Club points with points from the benefit card data of other cruise companies. If your client has benefit cards with multiple companies, he/she will have to choose which card to use to take part in the promotion. The MSC Voyagers Club card and membership will be subject to the terms and conditions of the MSC Voyagers Club.
A copy of the MSC Voyagers Club T&Cs is available here. MSC Cruises reserves the right to reject any Loyalty Match Request without any legal ramifications for legitimate reasons and to stop this program at any time.
Summary
I have no experience or connection with MSC Voyagers Club or MSC Cruises in any way whatsoever; so I cannot offer any recommendations for or against them. However, this offer might be worth investigating if you plan on taking a cruise and you happen to have elite level status in the frequent guest loyalty program of a lodging company, for example.
This offer reminds me of the days when applying for elite level status matches were more readily available from many frequent flier loyalty programs and easy to do…
