I just hit the age where I started to get invitations to join so I thank you all for this information! I still need to buy Cheers and now it looks like I can save 10%. Check your credit cards for rewards offers before you join AARP. Several of mine have had $8 statement credits and membership was only $12 to join in the first place. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZoeyVictoria Posted December 1, 2023 #27 Share Posted December 1, 2023 (edited) I will be on the Serenade of the Seas next week, then one night in a hotel before getting on the Vista. I am taking my casino “profit” from my last cruise onto the Serenade, and hoping to have money from the Serenade to use on the Vista. If not, I will order e-gift cards from AARP while I am on the ship and use the kiosk to input the numbers from the AARP email on my phone. It would prevent keeping track of unused gift cards in the case of purchasing in advance and then not needing them.

You are right, it would be better to have them in the wallet than to click the link at the kiosk. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just for those that may not be aware, you do not need to be a certain age to join AARP. Anyone can join. The $9 per year is worth it for what you save. It's the same with Costco for other cruise lines. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
