Captain's Club is Celebrity Cruises' six-tiered loyalty program for past passengers. Points are earned based on the length of your cruise and the category of your stateroom, and applied upon completion of each sailing. Solo cruisers paying a single supplement receive double points.

Points are awarded for each cruise night (on all ships except Celebrity Xpedition) as follows:
Inside Cabin: 2 points
Ocean View Cabin: 2 points
Balcony Cabin: 3 points
Concierge/AquaClass Cabin: 5 points
Sky Suite: 8 points
Celebrity/Signature/Royal Suite: 12 points
Edge Villa: 12 points
Reflection/Penthouse/Iconic Suite: 18 points


Points are awarded for Celebrity Xpedition cruises as follows:
Outside/Deluxe/Premium: 5 points
Junior/Xpedition Suite: 12 points
Royal/Penthouse Suite: 18 points


Captain's Club members are offered discounts on select sailings when booked onboard, some of which can be a good deal compared to retail rates -- especially if they also include an onboard credit or discount certificate. Compare prices to verify the savings. Also note that some of the loyalty program perks offered mirror those already available to all passengers sailing in certain higher-level cabin categories. Depending on how you usually travel, you might receive these benefits anyway.

Celebrity Cruises' Captain's Club program has some reciprocal rewards with Le Club Voyage on Azamara and the Crown & Anchor Society on Royal Caribbean, Celebrity's sister cruise lines.
