PLATINUM / CENTURION PROGRAM |
|
If you have an American Express Platinum card - the one that
costs $450 a year, you can receive the following benefits.
NO OTHER AMERICAN EXPRESS PLATINUM AFFILIATED CARD WILL WORK.
No Delta, Optima, Costco, Hilton, etc - affiliated Platinum
Cards.
- $150
on board credit per person - up to $300 per cabin.
- $225
on board credit if single occupancy cabin.
- Special
Check in and early boarding.
- American
Express cocktail party with the Captain.
- On
board credit can be used for any expense on the ship except
the casino.
- Centurion
Passengers who are American Express Centurion Card members
who book and pay with an eligible American Express Card
(does not have to be Centurion) on an eligible cruise of
more than 4 nights will earn a $500 per suite shipboard
credit ($375 for singles) and a "back of the house" tour.
This is a behind the scenes tour of the ship's operations
guided by a member of the crew, concluding with a champagne
toast. An authorization number must be obtained from
the Agency Services Desk through Platinum Travel Services
(PTS) in order for the promotion to be added to the booking
for all eligible bookings not made through PTS. A
maximum of three suites may be purchased using the same
Centurion Card (all three would earn the promotion with the
proper authorization code). Full Grand Voyages, back
to back or combination bookings receive this offer once.
They will NOT receive this offer for every segment.
Centurion amenities are not combinable with National Account
amenities.

DETAILS ON THE PROGRAM |
- The
cardholder MUST be one of the people traveling on the
cruise.
- Up
to THREE cabins can have the benefits added if all the
charges are on an AMX card and the Platinum card holder uses
his Platinum card number to apply for the credit.
- It
is NOT necessary to use the Platinum card to pay for the
cruise to acquire the credit. However, the entire cruise
must be paid on an AMX card of some kind. No Visa, MC or any
other card.
- There are many Platinum AMX cards, Delta, Hilton, Optima,
etc. These DO NOT QUALIFY. It must be the unaffiliated $450
Platinum card to qualify. All cards are approved and checked
by American Express to ensure they are qualified.
- Please be sure to tell Brown and Keene if you have an
American Express qualifying Platinum card. This is not an
automatic process and steps must be taken in order to
receive the benefits.
- On
back to back voyages or the World Cruise voyages only ONE
AMX credit will be applied.

HOW IT WORKS PRIOR TO
THE CRUISE AND ON THE SHIP |
|
- There will be nothing in your
tickets that identify the credit.
- Once on board you receive a letter in your cabin notifying
you of the credit.
- If this letter is not in your
cabin, check immediately with reception
to see if you have the credit on
your account.
- If there is any problem, please
email Brown and Keene immediately. Unfortunately, this
credit can "fall through the cracks" if the special
authorization code (tracking number) is not forwarded by
Regent to the ship. This is easily fixed. I can contact
Regent for you and ensure that (a) the number is in their
records and (b) instruct them to contact the ship and
confirm the credit.
- This MUST BE applied to your
onboard account. If you wait until the end of the cruise to
fix this error you will not receive the credit.
