CRUISE NEWS! Major American Airlines Change | Tragic Travel News | Princess Deposit Confusion

We have several important travel and cruise updates today that I want to make sure you understand clearly. First, there’s big news from American Airlines. Effective immediately, if you book an economy ticket, you will no longer earn airline miles or loyalty points toward status. I explain why this is such a significant change, how it could affect your future airline choices, and why this would be a deal-breaker for many frequent travelers. Next, we talk through the ongoing confusion around Princess Cruises’ refundable vs. non-refundable deposits. I explain exactly where to look on your booking confirmation to know which type of deposit you have, why many people are misunderstanding this, and what to consider as cruise prices continue to move—especially on 2027 and 2028 sailings. Finally, we discuss sad news out of Egypt, where two Nile River cruise ships collided, resulting in the tragic death of a passenger. We take a moment to acknowledge the loss, talk about what happened, and keep perspective on travel safety—while also recognizing the steps Egypt continues to take to protect tourists. There’s a lot to think about today, and I’d really love to hear your thoughts. Thank you so much for being here with me. God bless you. 💙⚓️ Our email address: letsgotraveltips@gmail.com 🛳️ Join us on our Upcoming Group Cruises: https://letsgotraveltips.com/upcoming-group-cruises/ 📟 Our Website: https://letsgotraveltips.com/ Thank you for watching Let's Go!
