Prioritize late‑morning Pompeii, choose Florence or Pisa, use ship excursions for priority tendering in Cannes, explore Trastevere instead of central Rome, visit Taormina early, eat in El Born not La Rambla, enjoy quiet sail‑away at Spice H2O, book specialty dining early in the cruise, buy local wine in port, and catch sunrise from your balcony.
Sometimes all it takes is sunshine and open water. In The Bahamas, unwind on Great Stirrup Cay or indulge in Great Tides Waterpark, opening September 2026, with soaring waterslides and a dynamic river.

Cruise Privileges Program
Cruise Privileges Program (“CPP”) benefits consist of an on-board credit and an additional on-board amenity on participating cruise lines. Platinum Card® Members can receive an on-board credit of $100 to $300 per stateroom. Centurion Members can receive an additional on-board credit of $200 per stateroom. Additional on-board amenities vary by participating cruise line. An additional on-board amenity is not available on Silversea’s expedition ships. Neither on-board credits nor an additional on-board amenity are available on Celebrity River Cruises or Galapagos sailings.
CPP benefits are available only for US residents with a Basic U.S. Consumer or Business Platinum or Centurion® Card (“Eligible Card Members”). Additional Card Members on Consumer and Business Platinum Card Accounts, Additional Card Members on Consumer and Business Centurion Card Accounts, Companion Card Members on Consumer Platinum and Centurion Card Accounts, and Additional Business Expense Card Members on Business Platinum and Centurion Card Accounts are also eligible for CPP program benefits. Delta SkyMiles® Platinum Card Members are not eligible for CPP benefits.
CPP benefits are available only for new CPP bookings of at least five nights with double occupancy made with a participating cruise line using an Eligible Card through AmexTravel.com or by calling the number on the back of the Eligible Card (a “CPP Booking”). To receive CPP benefits, the Eligible Card Member must be traveling on the itinerary and the total cost of the CPP Booking must be paid for using an American Express® Card in the Eligible Card Member's name. CPP benefits are non-transferable. Participating cruise lines are subject to change. The current list of participating cruise lines is available at https://www.americanexpress.com/en-us/travel/cruises-and-custom-vacations/travel-providers?intlink=US-travel-cruises-and-custom-vacations-subNav-ccvProviders. CPP benefits cannot be combined with other offers unless indicated; blackout dates, category and fare restrictions may apply. CPP benefits apply per stateroom, with a three-stateroom limit per Eligible Card Member, per cruise. On-board credits will be applied at checkout upon completion of the cruise; credit amounts in local currency may vary due to foreign exchange rates; credits are subject to cruise line terms and policies; credits cannot be used for casino charges, gratuities, or other similar charges. Any unused portion of an on-board credit is non-refundable and is not redeemable for cash. Other restrictions may apply.
2X Membership Rewards® Points on Cruise Bookings
U.S. Consumer and Business Platinum and Centurion® Card Members enrolled in the Membership Rewards program will receive one (1) additional Membership Rewards® point per dollar spent on eligible cruise bookings. Eligible cruise bookings include new cruise bookings charged directly to your eligible Card through AmexTravel.com or by calling the number on the back of your Card, minus returns and other credits. Any charges on your eligible Card made outside of American Express Travel will not qualify for additional points, including installments or other payments made directly to a cruise line. Airfare and other charges incurred as part of your cruise booking made through American Express Travel are eligible for additional points. Other charges made directly with the travel supplier will be bonused in accordance with the terms and conditions of your eligible Card product. If cruise bookings are made or modified directly with the cruise provider, the booking will not be eligible for additional points. If the booking is cancelled, the additional points will be deducted from the applicable Membership Rewards account. Any additional points received will be reflected in your Membership Rewards account 10-12 weeks after payment is made. Your eligible Card Account(s) must not be cancelled, past due, or otherwise suspended at the time of fulfillment to receive any additional points.
Merchants are assigned codes based on what they primarily sell. We group certain merchant codes into categories that are eligible for additional points. A purchase with a merchant will not earn additional points if the merchant’s code is not included in an additional points category. You may not receive additional points if we receive inaccurate information or are otherwise unable to identify your purchase as eligible for an additional points category. For example, you may not receive additional points when: a merchant uses a third-party to sell their products or services; or a merchant uses a third-party to process or submit your transaction to us (e.g., using mobile or wireless card readers); or you choose to make a purchase using a third-party payment account or make a purchase using a mobile or digital wallet.
Platinum Destinations® Vacations
Platinum Destinations® Vacations (“PDV”) benefits are valid only for new bookings made with participating suppliers by calling the number on the back of your eligible Card. Participating suppliers and PDV benefits are subject to change. Benefits cannot be combined with other offers unless indicated. Benefits are valid only for eligible U.S. Consumer and Business Platinum and Centurion® Card Members (Delta SkyMiles® Platinum Card Members are not eligible). PDV bookings must be made and paid for using the eligible Card and eligible Card Member must be traveling on the itinerary booked. Any charges on your eligible Card made outside of American Express Travel® will not qualify for additional points, including installments or other payments made directly to a participating supplier. PDV-eligible Card Members that are Membership Rewards program-enrolled will receive one (1) extra Membership Reward® point per eligible dollar spent on PDV bookings; separate airfare and other charges associated with PDV bookings are not eligible. Extra points will be credited to the Card Member’s Membership Rewards account within 10-12 weeks after final payment is made. For more information visit membershiprewards.com/terms.
