Creator's Key Takeaways

Cruise passengers frustrated by recent loyalty programs at Carnival Cruise Line may find a new reason to jump ship.

Explorer Journeys has just launched the second phase of its Explorer Club loyalty program, offering members more ways to earn points and new onboard benefits.

The backlash has been fierce with loyal Carnival cruisers saying they feel betrayed.

Explorer is now joining that conversation by expanding its own status match to include Oceanana CL cruises, bringing the total number of eligible brands to 11.

Creator's Tips & Advice

βœ“Consider exploring alternative cruise lines with better loyalty perks if dissatisfied with Carnival's VIFP program changes.
