Miles are earned per stateroom and are awarded to only one passenger per cruise booking. To qualify for the miles offer, you must book your cruise through the United Cruises program. The actual number of miles that will be earned by a member will be based upon the total cruise purchase price, excluding port charges and government taxes and the additional factors described below. Miles will be earned as follows: 2 miles per $1 of the total cruise purchase price excluding port charges and government taxes; 2 additional miles per $1 of the total cruise purchase price excluding port charges and government taxes if you book a balcony or suite; 2 additional miles per $1 of the total cruise purchase price excluding port charges and government taxes if you are a MileagePlus credit cardmember; 1 additional mile per $1 of the total cruise purchase price excluding port charges and government taxes if you are a MileagePlus credit cardmember and you book a balcony or suite. This amounts to a total of up to 7 miles per $1 of the total cruise purchase price excluding port charges and government taxes. Offers are subject to availability, capacity-controlled and may be changed or withdrawn at any time without notice. Miles are posted to member's accounts 6-8 weeks after the cruise has been completed. Cruises must be paid for in U.S. currency. To earn miles on your next cruise booking, call United Cruises at 1-800-211-2039 or book online at cruises.united.com.
Best Rate Guarantee: You must have first purchased a cruise through United Cruises and MileagePlus Cruise Awards. The lower advertised rate must be a price found for the same cruise — same ship, sailing dates and cabin category. Guarantee applies only to rates available to the general public. It does not apply to consolidator, group, incentive, interline, meeting, or convention rates that are not available to the general public. You must meet all requirements for the lower advertised rate (residency requirements for regional specials, age-related discounts, etc.). Guarantee applies only to the cost of the cruise (including port charges). Promotional packages, group deals, air or land components, shipboard credit, travel insurance, transfers, pre- or post-cruise hotel stays, and shore excursions are not eligible. Taxes and fees, which vary by itinerary, are not included. To claim a refund, you must contact us prior to your sailing date and within 48 hours of your purchase. The lower advertised rate must be available for booking at the time you contact us. Your refund request will be reviewed and we will determine whether you have met the necessary requirements. If your refund request is approved, the credit card used to purchase your cruise will be credited 110% of the price difference within 7-10 business days of final approval. If only a deposit has been made, then the final amount due will be adjusted to reflect the lower rate. Guarantee may be modified or cancelled at any time without prior notice or liability to you.
