I think the issue is you only matched recently and it doesn’t seem to be coughulative, to earn DBE you need to actually start from scratch. I matched last year before BE existed and my DBE sailing in Feb carried over to my cruise in 2025. A bag of laundry is USD50 so it sucks for you that it’s not working.Slightly academic with no return season down under for now but who managed to get a VV status match from VA? Did VA WP match to Blue Extras or Deep Blue Extras?
I was successful with VA SG -> “Blue Extras” a few months ago and received the benefits on two Euro cruises over the Northern hemisphere summer.

SYD+1 (no SM) also on same cruises has progressed to “Blue Extras” now and those benefits will be applicable to future cruises - consistent with the chart, but I was kind of expecting that the two cruises would then bump me to “Deep Blue Extras” (being effectively the 3rd and 4th cruise) but I’ve been told by VV I need another to progress? Does that sound right?
As it stands, I have nothing more planned for now, but the $100 bar tab, premium wifi and additional laundry, coffees are a decent uplift.
VV status is confusing and unstable so your nautical mileage may vary.
