Quick Thoughts
This is a great offer if you’re looking to book a cruise, particularly with the casino offer that we’ve written about. This could be a nice way to save on the upgrade to a balcony cabin for instance since you’ll pay that fee along with the taxes at the time of booking.
Note that it says that onboard purchases are excluded. I’m curious to hear from any readers with past experience on previous deals as to whether that is enforced as written.
The good news is that it does say that you can book through your preferred travel advisor, so if you are booking through a travel agent, you should be able to take advantage of whatever perks they can provide on top of enjoying the statement credit from this offer.
Overall, this is a solid new offer for cruising enthusiasts. We have added this and many other offers today to our Current Amex Offers resource post.
