How to get Royal Caribbean Crown & Anchor status

The fastest way to Diamond in Royal Caribbean Crown & Anchor is a free match from Celebrity Captain's Club Elite. Royal Caribbean and Celebrity are sister brands, and the match runs automatically, one tier for one tier — enroll through either brand's website or app and it's applied.

There's no once-per-lifetime catch here either: the match isn't a single-use trigger, so it stays available on an ongoing basis as long as you hold Elite with Celebrity. Right now this is the only route to Diamond — no card confers it, and there's no separate challenge or spend-based path on the books.
