The exclusive program aims
to entice big-spenders to
take an Orion cruise.
ORION EXPEDITION CRUISES HAS BECOME THE ONLY
cruise company to partner with American
Express in a lucrative rewards program: ‘5
membership rewards points for every $1 spent’.
Under the offer, American Express
Cardmembers who book an Orion cruise
using their Platinum Charge or Centurion
Cards will receive five points per dollar spent
(instead of the normal 1.5).
The offer is valid from now until 31 Dec 2011.
For travel agents, a booking worth
$30,000-$40,000 in premium
accommodation onboard Orion or Orion II
would result in a “healthy commission for the
agency and tens of thousands of points for
the Cardmember”, a spokesperson said.
According to research undertaken with
American Express’ high-end Platinum Charge
and Centurion cardmembers, points
accumulation is one of the few powerful
incentives that can influence their spending
behaviour.
“These high earners have significant
amounts of disposable income and are
attracted to quality experiential products such
as Orion Expeditions,” the company said in a
statement.

Orion team on 1800 673 760.
