All of the RCCL excursions and beverage packages show up as "Royal Caribbean" charges. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't recall that language there last time (I've done two of these before). Amex may get Level III transaction data which could allow them to distinguish the type of purchase even if the merchant is the same. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
molly361 Posted June 22, 2022 #6 Share Posted June 22, 2022 The offer that I got and the one mentioned in the other thread was spend $500 and get $125 credit. I just looked and the credit is applied to my card. That was pretty fast 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does booking mean only time of booking, or can it be used for final payment? Last time I was able to use it for an upgrade to a suite. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

robmtx Posted June 22, 2022 #9 Share Posted June 22, 2022 For those of you seeing the offer today, have you used the Royal Caribbean Amex offer recently? I used it about 6-8 months ago. I'm not seeing the offer now so wondering if I'm ineligible? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fsufancc Posted June 22, 2022 #11 Share Posted June 22, 2022 I've got 2 Amex cards, but they are both travel point cards - Hilton Honors and Marriot Bonvoy. Neither one is showing that benefit. Rats. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I used this type of offer last time around (as well as similar offer on Player 2's card), and I do see this offer available to me now. As I said above, the language sounds more restrictive than what I remembered, but not sure. Offer valid on cruise bookings made online at https://www.royalcaribbean.com, by calling 1-866-562-7625 or booked through your Travel Professional. Reservations must be booked on US website only. Valid only on purchases made in US dollars. Excludes onboard purchases, e-gift card and physical gift card purchases made online, transfers/transportation to the ship, MGM Resort International Joint Vacation and Royal Wedding Packages. Excludes Celebrity Cruise, TUI Cruises and Silversea brands. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My Player 2 doesn't have it either. We both used it last time and I confirmed that was Dec 18, 2021. Dang really would love to get it again. There's not shortage of invoices I could pay on. Nothing in the fine print would exclude a payment on an invoice as it doesn't specifically say "new bookings only" which is nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I got the recent spend $500 get $125 credit. I used the offer to purchase one UBP and I got the credit last week. The charge was posted on the 15th and the credit on the 16th. That said Amex is tightening the strings on these offers. You used to be able to get them on additional card holder cards but now it’s just one per account. I usually get them on my Everyday Card but I didn’t have the RC offer there but did have the Celebrity and the Norwegian offer so maybe it’s only one offer per person no matter how many different cards you have with them? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare habenicd Posted June 23, 2022 #19 Share Posted June 23, 2022 I do not see it on either one of our AMEX cards. Disappointing. We have a payment to make on our first RCI cruise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I doubt that. I use CSR for almost all travel as well, but I've gotten the Royal (and Celebrity) offers at Amex. It is possible for Amex to have that info via Royal, but that would be an unusual data sharing arrangement. There are some that advise adding as many Amex offers to your card as possible in order to generate replacement offers quickly (up to the limit of 100), but that sounds like too much work to me. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
