Yes. Celebrity Cruises offers a loyalty program called Captain’s Club. It is designed to reward guests for sailing with Celebrity by awarding Club Points based on factors such as the stateroom category and number of nights sailed.
Membership is free, and guests can move through several membership tiers as they accumulate points. Higher tiers provide additional benefits, which can include discounts, onboard privileges, Wi-Fi benefits, special events, and other rewards.
Celebrity has also expanded Captain’s Club with milestone benefits and a 2026 Points Choice option that allows eligible members to move points between participating loyalty programs within Royal Caribbean Group.
Celebrity Cruises’ loyalty program is called Captain’s Club.
The program is intended for repeat Celebrity guests. Once enrolled, members earn Club Points from eligible sailings. The number of points earned depends primarily on the type of accommodation booked and the number of nights on the cruise.
As members accumulate points, they progress through Captain’s Club tiers:
There is also a Preview stage for guests who have enrolled but have not yet accumulated the points required for Classic status. Celebrity currently lists Classic at 2–149 points, Select at 150–299, Elite at 300–749, Elite Plus at 750–2,999, and Zenith at 3,000 or more points.
Yes. Captain’s Club is free to join.
Celebrity says guests can enroll online and then add their Captain’s Club number to a reservation. Once enrolled, members can use their guest account to view their membership information, including their tier and Club Points.
You do not need to purchase a special membership package to participate.
The primary way to earn Captain’s Club points is by sailing with Celebrity Cruises.
The points you receive are based on your stateroom category and the number of nights sailed. Higher accommodation categories generally earn more points per night.
Celebrity currently lists the following Club Points per night for ocean cruises:
| Stateroom category | Points per night |
|---|---|
| Inside & Ocean View | 2 |
| Veranda & Infinite Veranda | 3 |
| Concierge Class & AquaClass | 5 |
| Selected suites | 8 |
| Celebrity, Signature & Royal Suite | 12 |
| Edge Villa, Penthouse & Reflection Suite | 18 |
| Iconic Suite | 24 |
The exact accommodation categories and program rules can change, so travelers should check the current Captain’s Club information before relying on a particular points calculation.
Yes. Celebrity provides a Solo Traveler Bonus for eligible guests who cruise alone, book a stateroom, and pay the full fare.
Celebrity also periodically runs promotional offers that can provide additional points. Promotional terms, eligible sailings and booking requirements can vary.
Celebrity also offers Power Up Points opportunities. Members can earn these points through qualifying activities such as surveys and webinars. Celebrity states that 10 Power Up Points equal one Club Point.
Captain’s Club has five primary loyalty tiers.
Classic is the entry-level tier after earning the required number of points.
Members receive access to selected Captain’s Club offers and benefits. Examples can include certain onboard discounts and member services.
Select members have accumulated 150–299 Club Points.
Additional benefits become available as members move beyond the entry level. The specific benefits can include enhanced discounts and access to additional Captain’s Club privileges.
Elite status requires 300–749 Club Points.
Benefits at this level can include additional onboard privileges, priority services where available, special events and increased discounts.
Elite Plus requires 750–2,999 Club Points.
At this level, members receive additional benefits compared with lower tiers. Celebrity's current program also includes milestone rewards beginning within the Elite Plus range.
Zenith is the highest standard Captain’s Club tier and begins at 3,000 Club Points.
Celebrity lists enhanced benefits for Zenith members, including additional dining, boarding and onboard privileges.
Captain’s Club benefits vary according to membership tier.
Depending on your status, benefits can include:
Not every benefit is available at every tier, and some benefits have specific conditions or availability restrictions.
Yes. Wi-Fi benefits are part of the Captain’s Club program.
The amount of the benefit depends on your tier and the applicable current program rules. Celebrity's published benefits include Wi-Fi discounts for several membership levels, while higher tiers can receive complimentary or larger allocations of premium Wi-Fi.
Because Wi-Fi packages and loyalty benefits can change, check your current Captain’s Club account and Celebrity's published benefits before purchasing an internet package.
Yes. Captain’s Club includes dining-related benefits.
Depending on membership level, members may receive benefits such as:
For example, Celebrity's 2026 milestone program introduced additional specialty dining benefits at specified point levels.
Celebrity introduced an expanded Milestone Benefits structure in 2026.
The program provides additional rewards as members reach selected point milestones. Celebrity announced milestone benefits beginning with eligible sailings on June 11, 2026.
Examples of the published milestones include:
Benefits include:
Benefits include:
At the Zenith milestone, benefits include:
Celebrity also lists additional rewards at 6,000 and 9,000 points. The 9,000-point milestone includes a complimentary seven-night Caribbean or Bermuda cruise in a Sky Suite under the published milestone program terms.
Celebrity introduced Points Choice for eligible Captain’s Club members in 2026.
Under this program, members can choose whether eligible points remain with Celebrity's Captain’s Club or are transferred to participating loyalty programs from other Royal Caribbean Group brands.
The participating programs are:
For eligible sailings departing on or after January 30, 2026, members can submit a request to transfer points according to the applicable rules and exchange rates.
This is particularly relevant for travelers who cruise across multiple Royal Caribbean Group brands.
Celebrity's Captain’s Club program provides status matching within participating Royal Caribbean Group loyalty programs.
Celebrity currently describes one-for-one tier matching across:
The exact matching relationship depends on the loyalty tier and applicable program rules.
This should not be confused with a universal status match across unrelated cruise companies.
Celebrity's current Captain’s Club information states that earned Club Points do not expire once they are posted to the member's account.
However, loyalty-program terms can change. If you are planning a long-term points strategy, check the current Captain’s Club terms before making assumptions about future benefits.
Joining is straightforward.
Create or use your Celebrity guest account and enroll in Captain’s Club.
If you already have a Celebrity reservation, make sure your Captain’s Club number is connected to the booking.
Your guest account can show your Captain’s Club number, current tier and Club Points.
Your points are generally calculated according to your stateroom category and nights sailed.
As your point balance increases, check which benefits apply to your current tier and whether you have reached any milestone.
You can check your membership information through your Celebrity guest account.
Celebrity states that members can view their Captain’s Club number, tier and Club Points after signing into their Guest Account.
If your points do not appear after a completed cruise, review the applicable posting timeframe and contact Celebrity's Captain’s Club support if necessary.
Some benefits are available based on your membership status, while others may require particular booking conditions, purchases or participation.
For example, certain discounts apply only to particular products or purchases, and some priority services are offered only where available.
Before your cruise, review the benefits associated with your current tier rather than assuming every Captain’s Club perk applies automatically to every sailing.
Since membership is free, there is little administrative reason for an eligible Celebrity guest not to enroll if they expect to cruise with the line again.
The practical value comes from using the benefits that match your travel habits. Someone who regularly purchases Wi-Fi, specialty dining or other eligible services may use different benefits from someone who primarily values priority services or loyalty events.
The program is therefore best understood as a way to receive additional benefits from repeat Celebrity cruising rather than as a simple cash-back system.
Make sure your Captain’s Club information is attached to your reservation so your sailing can be properly associated with your account.
The accommodation category can significantly affect how many points you earn per night.
Celebrity occasionally offers bonus-point promotions. These promotions have specific terms and eligibility requirements, so read the conditions before booking.
If your Captain’s Club tier includes a discount or complimentary allowance, check the applicable benefit before purchasing Wi-Fi, drinks, specialty dining or other eligible services.
If you are approaching a milestone, check the current program details to understand which benefits may become available.
