Thanks for the fast reply. One more question: if we bring our own equipment, is there space to hang it there? or do we take it back to our cabin?

. Do the ships do scuba excursions from the ship?

Yes, I know I do not have to join AARP to get the cards. MAny people have posted that over the last few weeks. I was talking about joining to get the AT&T discount - I just wanted to share what AT&T said about the discount.

Thanks for the heads up Don. I was thinking of buying $15,000 worth for our flights but I still am having issues with refunds from Princess. I was thinking of joining aarp to get the discount from AT&T. Might be worth the $16 a year ,membership. I called AT&T this morning and they said yes, there is a discount but it only on certain plans. Then checked my account and said we already get a teacher discount and that is better than the AARP one. SO, WHAT is the benefit for AARP to give these discounts on the cards?? Are they hoping people forget to turn them in? Thanks Sandy

Thanks Cobbler76. I appreciate you taking the time to explain it to me. That is a good deal!! Even if you have to join AARP, it certainly would be worth the $16 a year. I use my AMEX card for payment and receive a very nice OBC. I wonder how many dollars I can put on these AARP cards and still get the OBC. Has anyone tried to pay just their EZ air with them? Our flights total $16,000 so that would be a great savings. Thanks again for your fast reply.

I am not an AARP member so this is the first I have heard about these gift cards. Are they discounted? What is the benefit of buying them from AARP? Thanks

I did not find anything under the spa visits and onboard credits BUT I did find it under view rewards activities. It listed the last four months - nothing about my $1000 but then I clicked on Rewards redemption history. Then details. It asked: "confirm your identity" and I received an email with a code. I entered the code number and there they were!!!! They are 10 digital cards for $100 each. Now I just need to figure out how to get them to my TA to put towards my cruise fare- I don't want obc. Thanks again everyone.

FOUND IT!!!!!!! wonderful !!!!!! have to run an error but will come back and tell you where I found it THANKS

Thanks for the help. Where do you find "On board reservations" ? I asked under Help and no results came up.

I cashed in points last May for $1000 worth of gift cards to use for our Alaskan cruise &land cruise. I could not get them to apply. I called Barclays several times and no one could help me. I am out $1000 and getting very upset. There is no record of them being in my account. ANy suggestions.

Does anyone have an Annual insurance policy.?

We do this often. When we have had the grand suite, we have had dinner with 6 guests. Many times I would order appetizers first. We have them with drinks on the balcony. A little later, I'd order the main course. And then a third order for dessert. As someone said, tips are very much appreciated and when you order three times with a large order, I have given nice tips with each order. It makes a very lovely dinner experience. If it is just the two of us, I order everything at the same time.

During our land portion of our cruisetour, we will be overnighting in Cairns and doing the Great Barrier Reef catamaran tour. Any idea when the tour company will inform us of a dive excursion? I hate to bring all my gear since this is the only diving I will be doing. I was thinking of bring my mask, regs, computer and wetsuit. Anyone familiar with this type of an excursion? Do we do it from the catamaran and in the same location as the people snorkeling? or does a small boat pick us up? We will be there the end of October 2023. Thanks you for any help.
