New Celebrity offer from American Express!

[chamima]

I have a cruise booked for September 2017. Does this offer mean if I make an additional $500 deposit that I will receive a $150 credit on the following statement (or two)?

 

Only if you got the offer on your Amex card.

Check the home page and scroll to the bottom where it says "offers" and then click on "show more".

You have to register to get the credit.

[warmwinds]

Warning: You also have to use only the cardholder's card that they specify...one of us is the "cardholder" and one is the "authorized user" on the same cards, with 2 different account numbers.

 

ONLY use the card/number they say is valid for the offer, we learned this the hard way.

 

I'm still so jealous we did not get this great offer. :(

[renaroo]

Thanks! I found the offer and even though I'm not cruising until June, I plan to put $500 on my Amex to get the credit. [emoji3][emoji3][emoji3][emoji3]

Check your offers. My card is through AMEX itself.

 

Ours too and the offer is there. I added the offer to my card a bit ago.

Need to contact my TA to make a payment.

I am interested in this information as well. Shows up for Platinum too

 

Slightly annoyed. I checked my AMEX offers on Monday before making final payment and there was no Celebrity offer on my Platinium card. I just missed it. My final was due 9/14 and the offer began 9/15. Oh well.......

Thanks guys! I just added the offer and just need to call my TA and make the payment. What a great offer.

Do Canadians get offers because my DH has the Platinum card and I have a Gold card. The only offers we ever get is to buy concert tickets.

 

Certainly wish they had it for Canadians as we just made final payment on two cruises with our Amex.

We booked our cruise thru a big warehouse that does not accept Amex any more. Do we have to go thru them to make a pmt on our cruise?? If I could pay X directly, then I could us our Amex card and take advantage of this offer.

[Duanerice1]

OK, between business and personal we have 4 AMEX cards and none of them have the offer. Final payment is due next week - would have been nice.

[Julma]

For those of you who got the offer (I'm not one...boo) and have made final payment, is it possible to call Celebrity and ask them to credit $500 off whatever card you used and reapply it to Amex with offer? May be worth a try.

[ednmargo]

Love you guys! Thanks so much! I love this website. I just added the offer and will call my TA in the morning. Makes my first time Celebrity Reflection Feb 25 cruise that much sweeter!

 

Cheers,

I do have it and signed up.

It says it must be made through Celebrity.com.

I have final payment coming up soon through a TA. Does that meet the celebrity.com requirement?

If not I have another cruise I booked onboard and I can make a payment early to get the credit.

Thank you for posting this.

When my TA makes a payment for me it shows up on my credit card as coming directly from Celebrity.

Make sure yours does the same.

Ednmargo...we're also first timers on Reflection on 2/25 cruise! Just got the notice from AMEX confirming the credit will be issued within a certain number of billing cycles. WHOOT WHOOT!!

My deposit did say Celebrity on my card statement.

I just was not sure about the third party and wireless stuff.

Hopefully it will get the credit.

If not, I have another one booked directly and can pay $500 on that early.

[awhcruiser]

It does apply. I called my TA today and she had the $500 applied. The offer states payment can be made through celebrity.com or a travel professional

Got this offer on my Blue Cash Everyday. Anyone know if it is good for shore excursions? Already past final payment on November cruise.

 

 

I booked shore excursions and I received the confirmation email below. I figured I would give it a shot since I just made my final payment yesterday. If it doesn't work I will cancel them and use a different credit card.

Thank you so much for posting this. I never knew this was available and I have had my American Express for a long time. I feel foolish now for never looking before.

 

Is the $150.00 but given as a credit on your American Express?

 

Thanks again.

Excellent, thanks for posting. I'm going to give it a try as well.
