Airmiles Armchair Chatter

I can see the AARP being more difficult to manage as I assume it's an annual memebership and like you I am now booking a year or more out for future cruises. Just booked Fort Lauderdale to Santiago Chile through the Panama Canal for Nov '26. We're going to apply for the OBC in the new year for next years cruises ($400US nothing to sneeze at). So glad I found out about this perk.

I applied for my OBC on my two cruises next year (March and October) last weekend. I got the initial approval email yesterday, and the final redemption tonight. Both are longer cruises so will be a nice add on for us.

On the past two cruises, I had the Shore Excursions desk go in and apply the OBC to my prepaid excursions, refunding my initial outlay. That was a great use of the non-refundable OBC!

Thanks for the reminder about doing the AM surveys @Donald - my hero. I got both Covid and Flu shots last night so it’s lots of couch time for me today!

I finally got one more survey today. Got those last 4AM to max out the 5X offer.
