Still haven't redeemed your Capitalone points yet? Heres a tip!!

[Gary&Anna]

In an effort to try and keep this as short as possible, heres something you can do you may not have thought of yet. To redeem your Capitalone points, you don't have to have a cruise booked. Even if you don't have enough for a free cruise, you may have enough for a free companion cruise. You can also use your reward points for a discount on your next cruise up to $1000.00 off your best price. Theres several things to spend your reward points on, such as upgrades. or a free 3rd or 4th guest fare. According to the Capitalone lady, all you have to do it make up your mind how you want to spend the points and then call and they will give you a code. Then the next time you're ready to book a cruise, tell them you have the code and it will be factored in with the price. She said you have one year to use the code after receiving it. With the May 31 deadline approaching, I'm sure some of you are stressing how you were going to use them as we were. Turns out the proceedure was fairly painless getting your redemtion code. Again, all you have to do it make up your mind before you call how you want to spend them. I think this helps in the fact you don't have to be pushed into booking a cruise you really didn't want just to spend the points before you loose them.
