What's Being Discontinued?

Our top priority has always been to deliver an extraordinary travel experience. Your Le Club Voyage benefits enhance that experience, and we try to make them meaningful and valuable. And yet it's a balancing act. As we introduce new benefits on voyages departing on or after January 1, 2015, we'll be discontinuing some others:

- Sparkling wine in staterooms upon arrival
- “Welcome home” gift when advancing to the next tier
- One bag of free laundry
- Complimentary wine tasting on voyages of ten nights or more
- Free Internet service. (Note that while the “free” is going away, we’ll continue to offer Internet savings based on your member level.)

We expect mixed reactions to the discontinued benefits. It wasn't an easy decision, but we believe it's the right long-term decision for our guests and brand. Look at it this way: you'll be earning points toward free nights instead of free laundry or Internet minutes. Plus stateroom upgrades, savings on select voyages, and other new benefits. As a Le Club Voyage member, we never want you to question your value to us...or our desire to create value for you.
