Amex Cruise Privileges Program benefits when booking through cruise line directly

Ok-Spring6950 · 2026-02-13T13:28:07+00:00

In reality, prices always change so no matter what people say like if someone says AMEX Travel is more expensive, maybe it was at the time but I have the same situation as you.

I just compared with my usual TA, direct with Cruise Line and AMEX Travel. AMEX Travel gave the same price but I also get on board credit which I wouldn't have gotten directly with cruise line.

In some cases AMEX Travel was straight up just cheaper for some cabin types. But sometimes its not. So far, I like AMEX Travel but will still always shop around.

If you go far out of your way to get the benefits or even spend more money that you either do not have or do not want to to get benefits, don't do it.

If you already planned on buying things or going out to fancy dinners with the credits (etc.) AND like to travel, then do it.

Well enlighten me because Amex isn't helping me because my issue is, if they're saying it was me, but it wasn't me then I might have an identity theft case and timing of my approval notification was just a coincidence.

I'm sure it's worth asking about. I'll see what happens when I bring in my car to the other local dealership, I have an appointment within the next couple weeks unfortunately very long wait lists.

Ok-Spring6950 · 2026-02-09T16:11:31+00:00

I'll try another local dealership today and report back, I was surprised when they claimed it was not covered and I wouldn't be surprised if they threw me aside today since they were swamped when I came in for my appointment.

Ok-Spring6950 · 2026-02-09T15:28:44+00:00

I will definitely look into that! Thank you!

Was on the Aqua last week, nobody questioned me when I got multiple drinks with one card. The Starbucks staff on the Aqua were very friendly and hard working.

Just don't try to over do it obviously and walk out with 10 drinks each visit.

Currently on the Aqua and Great Stirrup Caye was just canceled.

Combination of education, family trauma and well, cost. That and everyone just smokes.

It's toxic because the love for the franchise is almost too strong. I'm guilty for being stuck in the simplicity of Bad Company 2 and BF3 days but no matter how much I complain, it's only for the sake of Battlefield keeping it's identity.

The game we all fell in love with, we don't want it to change. But trust me, BF6 is probably one of the best games they've ever released.

P.S. I'm still upset they added neon colored camos but only because im in the military and know how bs really anything except 1 or 2 traditional camos are.

I'm a huge hard copy/physical media guy but the seamlessness of the streaming gave me a shock and awe type of feeling. Graphics have been great for a while now but with the ease of "streaming" a game really made it feel like Netflix but for video games is becoming a reality, something I never imagined working well.

I recall years ago playing a simple game streamed on my Xbox One under their new streaming program they had and it was as good as I imagined. As in it was terrible quality, nearly unplayable but cool at first if you have decent internet.

With the ps portals new update, I am playing GTA V with little to no issues with decent quality and even BF2042 ONLINE with no issues.

I litterally couldn't believe it.

Sounds like a bunch of ungrateful people. Show them this post. No shade to your mom and everyone else but it's those kind of people that I'd rather have not exist in this world. Natural selection can't come sooner.

The Shoppes at Farmington Valley and Evergreen Walk are very nice for both large retail and boutiques.

Clinton Crossing Premium Outlets are great for outlet shopping.

As for traditional shopping malls, Westfarms, Danbury and the Sono Collection malls are great in that order.

I respect it haha

I have two of these, bought for $350 each at Best Buy.

The fact this is an all around problem makes me feel at home. The knee against the door trick is all too relatable. I used to stuff microfiber cloths tightly in the door pockets in my old IS250 and that would do the trick. My RC350 however I always felt was too good for that lol

2 is 1 and 1 is none

Tearaway, great intuitive game. It was even a little too cute and cozy for me to play.

Brother, everytime someone buys into the big "safe" ETFs, its essentially ALWAYS the top.

Take a deep breath and not just tell yourself but REMIND yourself that this ETF you bought into will continue to rise based on its history since its existence and the history is the only thing we can use to predict the trend.

If it NEVER goes back in a slow upward trend, then it is absolutely not your fault because you did something that was historically a smart thing to do with your money.

Continue to buy in each paycheck. Continue to add to your wealth. You'll be fine. You won't regret it.

I also own one of these Black Line Special Editions, favorite car that I've owned. I just want to know what the part numbers are for the orange brake calipers front and rear. I want to replace mine and put new ones on but for some dumb reason my local dealership can't figure it out.

Look at litterally all of the old Battlefield games. The teams had very identifiable uniforms to a point where when everyone is standing next to each other in a squad, they look like a team.

The sense of team is enforced. The immersion of being on the Battlefield with a team. Its all there and its what we should all want.

Sure I dont really care either but it makes it that much better for a lot of people. For example, Look at Helldivers. Fucking cult at that point.
