I am another customer who prefers that Seabourn keep its current system for air, purchase through their air option if you want.

Our experience in Hamburg was that the passengers tended to arrive early rather than later, so by 3:00 there should be a short line of people waiting to board, unless something goes wrong.

Back to the original question about Cunard's loyalty program: After years of sailing, we have managed to slog our way to fancy pants Diamond status. At this level we will get a free lunch in the specialty restaurant and some free internet time, and that is about it. I am happy to receive whatever amenities I can get, but I do find Cunard's loyalty program to be less than generous. However it is not the reason why we sail the QM2.

Jack: You also have my thanks for your comprehensive report, which is helpful as we board a westbound crossing on June 22. Thanks!

I may be wrong...but I think that when we pay for the cruise with the AmEx card, we get a bottle of wine as an amenity. On Cunard the wine is their own label.
