Rare Eli_6 Posted August 23, 2023 #1 Share Posted August 23, 2023 One of my Chase cards has a 15% off on Carnival this month so check your Chase offers. Good for up to $129 cash back. I believe it is a targeted offer as my Chase Aer Lingus card offers it but my Chase United and BA don't. Just wanted to post for anyone else with a Chase card to remind them to check their offers. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joanne G. Posted August 23, 2023 #2 Share Posted August 23, 2023 I had that offer recently on one of my Chase cards, but I missed the fine print that it was good for one time use only. So even though the offer hadn’t expired, after I used it to prepay gratuities on an upcoming cruise, I couldn’t go back the next day and use it for excursions or anything else. Details matter! In hindsight, maybe I should have bought gift cards in the amount needed to get the maximum cash back. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LynnTH Posted August 24, 2023 #3 Share Posted August 24, 2023 I had this on 2 of my cards. I did 2 separate purchases of $800 Carnival Gift Cards and was credited $120 on each card, within a few days. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nice that Carnival Gift Cards you can use for Cruise itself or for Drink Package/Excursions or to use on the ship. Not all Cruise Lines have gift cards that flexible. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, But if you have the Cash Rewards card from BAC that lets you select your 3% category as internet spend, that counts. So, although my Chase only has 10% back, I won't use that offer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tiger0613 Posted August 25, 2023 #16 Share Posted August 25, 2023 (edited) I never get Carnival offers on my Marriott Bonvoy Bold card(no annual fee). The only travel related offers I get are for various Marriott hotel brands and recently Southwest Airlines. I fly American Airlines, and the hotel offers never show up when I am actually staying at the featured brand. I mostly get restaurants, meal kits, cookware, online snacks, ticket sellers, Dell, and other random stuff.

Chase offers are targeted and not always equal-OP got a much better offer. Mine is going to be wasted anyway because I'll just buy gift cards from AARP @ 10% off and get additional cash back for the purchase from another credit card 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also while checking out on the Carnival website there is an option to apply OBCs to the purchase. We don't want to use OBC for this so we can take advantage of $35 cash back from Chase. If we didn't click Apply I hope the site will not add our OBCs as payment automatically. The Chase offer wouldn't work then.... Anyone tried it?

My OBC is still there and my offer was applied. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We planned to do some specialty dinning anyhow, so I just got my cart balance up to where I still got the maximum $129 chase credit while also using my OBC. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
