[QUOTE="klein, post: 800463, member: 23950"] Just found this out last week: If you book your cruise thru Continental Airlines (Continental Cruises), and sign up for "One pass miles rewards", in most cases the reward miles you earn, by booking the cruise with Continental, is enough to get [B]free return flights[/B] to and from the Cruise port ! For example: My mother is currently on a 10 day Carribean Cruise. If she would have booked it thru continental cruises (she actually flew with that airline), but, instead booked the cruise directly with Princess Cruises. She would have earned 20.000 one pass miles (25.000 needed to fly from Edmonton to Ft Lauderdale). But last week they had double the miles promo (40K) - would have paid easily for the flights, with extra legroom charges. Even at regular miles (20.000), she could have purchased 5.000 more at a cost of $35 per 1000 miles. $35 x 5 = $175 total for the return flight. Instead, she paid closer to $1000 for the flights. (and no, I didn't book her vacation for her, she left it up to her younger son to do it, and she wasted a lot of money doing so) ! [/QUOTE]
