Princess Amex cpp

[cusematt4]

Hi all - does anyone know what the Amex platinum benefits are for Princess.  Is it 100 obv for oceanview and 200 for balcony?  Is there anything else such as a speciality dinner included?

[Rick&Jeannie]

I have the AMEX Reserve Delta Skymiles card...no offers at all.  It all depends on EXACTY what card you have and whether it is "co-branded".

Why was another thread started about AMEX card benefits?

Our last Princess cruise was January 2022 and we received the free specialty dining on the first night. You have to call the dine line when you embark, or just go visit the restaurant, to make a reservation.

 

This is kind of buried in the fine print at the bottom when you go to the travel page of the Platinum card section.

I believe the OP was enquiring about the specific Princess benefits if having a Platinum AMEX with their exclusive cruise benefits opposed to if anyone has seen ‘offers’ which are eligible to various types of AMEX cards and separate from the CPP(cruise privileges program) associated with having a Platinum card.

I must have "the wrong AMEX card" (Delta Reserve Skymiles)...I've never received any type of offer involving Princess.  It could very well be that it's because I have a "co-branded" card.

The other thread seemed to hint at that in a couple of posts.  (Still this could be one thread IMO, but I am not the thread police - LOL).

Here is the only cruise related offer currently available on our Amex Platinum account...
