Creator's Key Takeaways

They've finally made some changes that it's going to make some cruisers happy, but others not so much.

Basically stripping their most loyal members of their lifelong status in favor of a new pay-to-play scheme that involves earning stars.

The big winner in this change of a change is diamond status cruisers.

Platinum Cruisers, at least me, still not very happy with this.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Diamond cruisers should ensure they hit diamond by May 31st, 2026, for lifelong status.
Platinum cruisers will receive 10,000 status qualifying stars at program launch and every 2 years.
