OK to identify your status as a NCL cruiser, but one of the nice things about cruising is that outside of the cabin--we are all the same. We dine alike, we are entertained alike. Now with color codes, you are likely to have fluctuations in service levels and also (and more importantly) it is a security issue. If I know the suiteholders are red cards and I can see that, it just says a bit more about the guest. Code them in the strip, and let the color reflect status with NCL, but I think making it a status thing is wrong! I am not so sure I like the color coded cruise cards.
