jcollin Posted October 7, 2022 #3 Share Posted October 7, 2022 Forgive me as I just got my platinum card this week. When you say it showed up what does that mean? I have a cruise booked and need to make final payment in Nov. If i use the Amex card I get 350 back for spending 1K? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scroll down to see your offers. If the NCL offer is there, click on the "Add to Card" button. I copied the fine print below. Sometimes these offers are only good on new reservations. But I am not sure how to read the current NCL offer. Enrollment limited. Must first add offer to Card and then use same Card to redeem. Only U.S.-issued American Express® Cards are eligible. Limit 1 enrolled Card per Card Member across all American Express offer channels. Your enrollment of an eligible American Express Card for this offer extends only to that Card. You must first add offer to an eligible Card by 10/14/2022 and then use same Card to make one or more qualifying purchases totaling $1000 or more for reservations booked online via US website only at NCL.com, via phone at 1-888-438-7114 or through your preferred travel advisor by 12/31/2022. Offer valid for reservations booked online via US website only at NCL.com, via phone at 1-888-438-7114 or through your preferred travel advisor by 12/31/2022. Excludes purchases onboard, Norwegian gift cards, shore excursions and transportation to and from the ship. Offer is non-transferable. Valid only on purchases made in US dollars. Limit of 1 statement credit per Card Member. You may not receive the statement credit if we receive inaccurate information or are otherwise unable to identify your purchase as qualifying for the offer. For example, you may not receive the statement credit if (a) the merchant uses a third-party to sell their products or services; or (b) the merchant uses a third-party to process or submit your transaction to us (e.g., using mobile or wireless card readers); or (c) you choose to make a purchase using a third-party payment account or make a purchase using a mobile or digital wallet. Purchases may fall outside of the offer period in some cases due to a delay in merchants submitting transactions to us or if the purchase date differs from the date you made the transaction (for example, the purchase date for online orders may be the shipping date). Statement credit will appear on your billing statement within 90 days after 12/31/2022, provided that American Express receives information from the merchant about your qualifying purchase. Note that American Express may not receive information about your qualifying purchase from merchant until all items/services from your qualifying purchase have been shipped/provided by merchant. Statement credit may be reversed if qualifying purchase is returned/cancelled. If American Express does not receive information that identifies your purchase as qualifying for the offer, you will not receive the statement credit. Limit 1 enrolled Card per American Express Card online account. The enrolled Card account must be active, not past due, canceled, or have a returned payment outstanding to receive the statement credit. Any benefit earned from this offer is in addition to the rewards (i.e. Membership Rewards or cash back) earned as part of your existing Card benefits, but your ability to earn spend-based rewards for the purchase will be based on the amount after any statement credit or other discount is applied. Amex Offers are available for varying and limited periods of time and are dynamic and personalized. If you navigate away from the Amex Offers page, you may see different offers when you return. For questions regarding your Card Account, please call the number on the back of your Card. By adding an offer to a Card, you agree that American Express may send you communications about the offer.

603NHCruiser Posted October 7, 2022 #5 Share Posted October 7, 2022 It looks to be offered fairly broadly, just checked by AMEX Cash and I had it as well. short enrollment window though, enroll by 10/14 use by 12/31. I know when it popped up a couple of months ago it was a lot more targeted and appeared to only go out to AMEX plat holders. Wahoo! makes the upgrade to FAS Plus a lot easier of a decision Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mister_two Posted October 7, 2022 #6 Share Posted October 7, 2022 (edited) Saw it on one of my AMEX card. Will this work if I use this AMEX card to bid on a room upgrade ? My cruise is already paid for. The cruise is less than 30 days away. If the bid wasn't accepted will it work to cover onboard charges ?

Luckily I haven't come across one that is only good for new reservations yet. that would be a bummer as the time they pop up has never lined up for me to use while looking at a new booking. This will be my third time using it. First was for payment towards an existing res. Second was to purchase Cruise first certs which I then applied to existing res. got the rebate both times without any issues. This time I will likely use for the FAS Plus upgrade for my upcoming 11 day. It makes swallowing $1100 a lot easier 🙂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WYB! Posted October 7, 2022 #8 Share Posted October 7, 2022 (edited) The offer from AmEx will show up in some people's account as a Reward Offer and not others. It's not random, but I don't know how they decide how and when it shows up. You just have to look on your AmEx account every now and then. The way I use it is to pay down the remaining balance on a future cruise booking by what ever the amount is. I believe you may be able to use it to pre-pay your gratuities. For bookings made on or after April 1, 2022, that prepay their service charges before their sail date: $20.00 USD per person per day for The Haven and Suites; $18.00 USD per person per day for Club Balcony Suite; $16.00 USD per person per day for all other stateroom types Typically I'll use my NCL BoA card for all NCL related purchases, but when this deal comes up I'll use my AmEx for the $1k purchase.

No on the onboard charges: Excludes purchases onboard, Norwegian gift cards, shore excursions and transportation to and from the ship For the upgrade-maybe maybe not-it would depend on how it is coded, but it certainly can't hurt to try if your bid is over $1,000, but I would expect it not to apply Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NYMama Posted October 7, 2022 #10 Share Posted October 7, 2022 Thank you! I utilized a $250 credit about a month ago. Made a partial payment toward my cruise that qualified. My final payment is due 10/21 and I can now get a $350 credit. $600 saved for using AmEx is not a bad deal. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did you also book through an AMEX TA to get the platinum benefits (if that is the card type you have)? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Make sure you dbl check, if you are not familiar with the T&Cs - if you are and already know, just ignore me 😁 *Limit of 1 statement credit per Card Member *Limit 1 enrolled Card per American Express Card online account If you and your husband share an account and one of you is listed as an additional card holder, it may not work. Sounds like you need two separate accounts (which you may) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You used to be able to do that. (We once did that on a Carnival Corporation credit used for a Holland America cruise.) But I believe AMEX no longer allows that. It will probably disappear on once card when used on the other. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep, I used an offer a while ago and now have this one-I don't see in the terms that we would not be eligible for the new offer as well, My final payment is not due until January, but I will pay $1k in Dec to get this Please report back if you do not get the second credit later this month 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare debenson0723 Posted October 7, 2022 #19 Share Posted October 7, 2022 This does not appear to be available on AmEx branded cards (such as the Delta Platinum card).

Thanks You'll have many special offers on the Amex website, which you'll need to opt into. What one person has may or may not apply to someone else because of the way it's targeted. I make it a point to check for offers every week or so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you and your spouse each have separate AMEX cards in one name alone then the offers on the two cards can be used independently and usage on one card will not cause the offer to disappear on the other card. It is for this reason, and others, that my wife and I never do joint card applications and we never add each other as authorized users to each other's cards.

Juncti Posted October 7, 2022 #22 Share Posted October 7, 2022 I literally just paid up a cruise yesterday. So of course this appears today. Went through all my cards before paying to make sure none had a rebate offer. I have awesome luck! We're considering the plus upgrade but not sure I can hit 1k or if it counts if we pay for upgrades with the card. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grimix Posted October 7, 2022 #23 Share Posted October 7, 2022 (edited) So if I book a cruise in advance and put down $1000+ deposit, if I need to cancel the cruise 6 months later before final payment is due will they chase me down for the $350? Not trying to game their system (although it seems gameable) but we're thinking of doing Alaska next year, and plans sometimes change. We were originally booked to do Alaska this year, but changed it to a Mexican Riviera since we needed to reschedule the Alaskan one due to a wedding.

styxfire Posted October 8, 2022 #25 Share Posted October 8, 2022 Bummer, I have 3 AmEx cards, including the Everyday one... and it's not offered on any of mine.
