The benefits are too numerous and diverse to mention in a post, but generally they include express check-in/check-out, free laundry, a gift, wine, on board open bar party, and on and on. Each cruise line is different and awards differently. Some award for days at sea, some for individual cruises, some for both. There are also many levels possible, ranging from just a few to 8 or 10. I would advise you to look into the various cruise line websites to see what they offer. They are under different names, for instance, Royal Caribbean has the Crown and Anchor Club, Carnival has VIFT (Very Important Fun Person), and Princess has it's Captain's Circle. Some of the top level benefits include having dinner with the captain and a free meal at one of the specialty restaurants. The more you sail with a cruise line, the better the benefits will be!
