german89 Posted May 21, 2011 #1 Share Posted May 21, 2011 Hey guys, I'd like to pay for my cruise with my Amex Reward Points. I only found websites like AMT American Express Travel (they are ALL over Google) or Avoya. Are those trustworthy? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Essiesmom Posted May 21, 2011 #2 Share Posted May 21, 2011 Have you tried going directly through the American Express website? That's what I did when I book air using points. But be aware that you may find that you have booked through Travelocity. I recently booked a Hampton Inn room through AMEX because I couldn't get through the Hhonors website, and found when I check in I couldn't get points because AMEX books through Travelocity.

sail7seas Posted May 21, 2011 #3 Share Posted May 21, 2011 Wow....... I think Am Ex should make that clear and people should know in advance of using their service. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steamboatin Posted May 22, 2011 #6 Share Posted May 22, 2011 Our local TA that we use has taken our AMEX for all of our escorted trips and cruises we have taken over the years and always have received our Skymiles Points. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

german89 Posted May 22, 2011 Author #9 Share Posted May 22, 2011 Aah found it... Just had to go to the US site, the German site only offers flights in the travel section. However, as soon as I login, I get We're Sorry The page you've requested has been moved or taken off the site. We apologize for the inconvenience. Please visit the Home Page for more details. :mad: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

romnan Posted May 23, 2011 #11 Share Posted May 23, 2011 Avoya used to be America Vacation Center. I have a great TA with them and I use them for all my cruises. I really don't have enough points to make it worth my time for travel,so I use them for Hotels and care rentals:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
