Card Perks That Put The Fun Into Travel

1. Flights. Most trips begin with a flight, and getting a few perks can make a big difference towards making your flight a better experience. Some credit cards entitle you to complimentary or discounted companion tickets, complimentary first checked bag or discounts on in-flight purchases.

Gold Delta SkyMiles^® Credit Card from American Express, a GET.com advertiser, gives you priority boarding and also lets you enjoy a complimentary first checked bag on every Delta flight.

2. Hotels and resorts. Many hotel groups let you sidestep the slow and expensive process of attaining their high-tier loyalty status when you get their co-branded credit card. Having loyal customer status can entitle you to all kind of perks like late checkout, complimentary room upgrades, access to hotel amenities and even complimentary breakfast.

With The Platinum Card^® from American Express, you can get a hotel credit of up to $75 towards qualifying charges and a room upgrade when you use your Card to book a stay of at least 2 consecutive nights (subject to availability) at hotels which participate in the Hotel Collection program. You can redeem this credit at checkout towards extras like eligible dining or relaxing at the spa (not the cost of your room, hotel taxes, fees and gratuities).

3. Cruises. A cruise provides a unique opportunity to escape the busy world and chill out without getting bored, and American Express now offers a lot of nice perks on partner cruise lines to holders of exclusive cards like The Platinum Card^® from American Express. You can take advantage of these privileges by booking a cruise of 5 nights or longer through American Express Travel using your eligible Amex card.
