I am not too many weeks away from another amazing cruise and I simply can not believe we are only days away from September and the unofficial start to fall. With that I am so looking forward to another trip up north to Gaylord, Michigan for a long weekend of great golf (not Shanty Creek this year). But more on that later – let’s look at the week that was:
How cool is it to once again have our Royal Caribbean man, the legend himself MJ, blogging here on EotF? This week he pontificates over the question of if an RCI Diamond does, after all, still need to get a drink package.
I recently bid on a simply amazing cruise for October from Skymiles auctions. Spoiler alert – I did not win. Just how much did the 11 day cruise in a suite on a luxury ship go for? Was it a good value for the winners Delta points? Find out here.
There is a viral video out of some Russians on an MSC cruise ship ordering EVERYTHING on the menu for dinner. What pigs! Oh and just look at the look on the waiter’s face. Shameful.
Most Frequent Floaters know my go-to cruise line is NCL. I am a lifetime Diamond with NCL and just love the NCL fee. I also love that I can load $1000 onto my onboard account and walk off with cash and with this Amex offer (I was targeted) I get 20% cash back = #Winning!
Are you LOL/24 with Chase? I know many readers are but some are still getting approved for this HUGE card offer that will very soon be gone. Have you never gone for business cards? You are soooooo missing out on massive points and stunning card offers.
Speaking of card offers, how about 87,000 hotel points to help offset your travel needs either on vacation or before or after a cruise? I hate paying for air or hotels when I travel so I use points. You?
When we fly we are always told to put our electronic device into airplane mode (after all they all come with an airplane mode button, right). One TikTokker brags about never ever following this command. Do you agree?
Lastly this week we dive in to a problem that clearly is huge in the USA and that is so many are carrying a credit card balance and paying simply insane (think 30%) interest rates on balances. Should you ever get a travel card if you are paying off another card or loan? We answer that question and more!
Have a safe and great weekend everyone and if you are flying I hope you are on time. If you are driving I hope for no back-ups. If you are cruising – I wish I were you! – René
