Carnival Just Told Platinum Guests to Wait in Line | Dockside Dish Ep 3
Description from YouTube
Carnival just told some Platinum guests to wait in line — and we’re breaking down what that means for Carnival cruise loyalty perks, VIFP status, priority embarkation, early stateroom access, luggage delivery, and Guest Services on impacted sailings. In this episode of Dockside Dish, Michelle covers the biggest cruise news stories of the week with a little personality and just the right amount of drama, including Carnival’s Platinum perk cuts, the Star Princess norovirus outbreak, Celebrity River Cruises’ new destination discovery experiences, Holland America’s Tracy Arm to Endicott Arm change for Alaska 2026, and more. These are the main stories covered in your script: Carnival’s Platinum perk issue, the Star Princess outbreak, Celebrity River Cruises’ new experience categories, Holland America’s Tracy Arm/Endicott Arm swap, Carnival Jubilee’s perfect CDC inspection, the MSC Meraviglia toilet issue caused by a flushed towel, and Carnival Firenze’s fall 2026 cruise cancellations. Are Carnival loyalty perks losing value? Should Platinum guests still expect priority treatment if too many top-tier cruisers are onboard? And does a cruise ship norovirus outbreak change how you prepare for your next sailing? We get into all of it. In this episode: Carnival Platinum perks removed on select sailings Star Princess norovirus outbreak and CDC case counts Celebrity River Cruises destination discovery rollout Holland America replacing Tracy Arm with Endicott Arm in Alaska Carnival Jubilee earns a perfect CDC inspection score MSC Meraviglia toilet system issue after a towel was flushed Carnival Firenze cancels 11 fall 2026 cruises If you love cruise news, cruise tips, Carnival Cruise Line updates, Princess Cruises updates, Alaska cruise news, and weekly coverage of what’s happening across the cruise industry, subscribe to Treksio and come back every Friday for another episode of Dockside Dish.
