Vacation planning is thrilling, but getting more value out of your booking makes it even better. We are thrilled to introduce expanded options for redeeming your hard-earned points, giving you more flexibility than ever before. These new choices allow you to customize your travel experience, whether you want adventures ashore or convenient rides to the airport. By enhancing our program, we ensure that your loyalty translates into tangible benefits that improve every aspect of your journey. Let’s dive into the exciting details of these fresh opportunities to maximize your travel budget using your cruise rewards and cruise extras.
Enhancing your trip with shore excursion cruise rewards
One of the most exciting additions to our lineup is the ability to redeem points for shore excursion credits. These credits are designed to help you explore the world, redeemable specifically with our partner Shore Excursion Group. Members can choose from a variety of denomination amounts ranging from $25 all the way up to $500 to suit their adventure needs. This flexibility means you can partially fund a snorkeling trip or fully cover a private city tour depending on your balance. It is a fantastic way to turn your loyalty points into unforgettable memories on land.
Redeeming your points for shore excursions is a simple process. First, browse the available tours for your upcoming trip through Shore Excursions Group. When you’re ready, select your credit amount below and click Redeem. Just be sure the credit doesn’t exceed the total cost of your purchase, as it is single-use only. Once processed, you’ll receive an email with a unique coupon code. These credits open the door to local experiences you might otherwise skip, essentially giving you free entertainment during your port days. Simply apply your code on the Cruises.com Shore Excursions Group website to finalize your booking.
Uber vouchers as versatile cruise rewards
Traveling to and from the cruise port just got significantly easier with our new Uber voucher redemption option. Members can now redeem their points for Uber vouchers in amounts from $25 to $500, usable for both Uber Rides and Uber Eats. This is perfect for covering that ride to the terminal or grabbing a stress-free meal the night before you set sail. Once you add the voucher to your Uber account, it is automatically available to be selected as a payment method for your next order. It is a seamless way to handle the logistical costs that often pile up around a vacation.
It is important to remember that once a voucher is applied to a specific order, it cannot be reversed or moved to a different transaction. These vouchers are valid for six months from the date of redemption, giving you a generous window to use them for your travel needs. Whether you need a lift to the airport or a late-night snack after a long flight, these cruise extras provide practical solutions. This addition to our program highlights our commitment to supporting you during every phase of your journey, not just while you are on the ship. It turns your points into real-world convenience that simplifies your travel days.
Flexible, secure and fast cash back
We are revolutionizing how you receive cash back by partnering with JP Morgan. This new system allows you to redeem points for cash back through a variety of trusted platforms including your US Bank Account, Debit Card, Zelle, PayPal, or Venmo. The process is incredibly simple: just enter your account information for your preferred payment method and hit redeem. This variety ensures that no matter how you prefer to handle your finances, there is a secure option waiting for you. It is a modern approach to redemption that prioritizes your convenience and security above all else.
The speed of this new process is a game-changer compared to the traditional methods you might be used to. Generally, this system is exponentially faster, getting your cash reward into your hands quickly so you can use it however you see fit. Whether you want to boost your spending money before a trip or pay off a travel expense, these cruise rewards give you total freedom. We know that waiting for checks or slow transfers is frustrating, so we have eliminated the wait. This upgrade transforms your points into immediate purchasing power with just a few clicks.
Choosing the best cruise extras for your lifestyle
With so many new options available, deciding how to use your points can be a delightful dilemma for our members. You might mix and match, using cruise rewards for a shore excursion on one trip and cash back for the next. The introduction of diverse redemption options demonstrates how we are adapting to modern travel needs. It is no longer just about onboard credit; it is about enhancing the entire ecosystem of your vacation experience. We want you to feel rewarded whether you are stepping off a plane, stepping onto a glacier, or simply padding your bank account.
Take some time to review your current point balance and think about which option brings you the most joy or utility. Maybe the convenience of a pre-paid ride to the pier relieves stress, or perhaps the cash back allows you to splurge on a fancy dinner at home. These cruise extras are designed to be as unique as the travelers who earn them. We are committed to constantly improving the value we offer, ensuring that your loyalty is always recognized and celebrated. Start planning your next redemption strategy today and see how far your points can take you.
