Creator's Key Takeaways

This cruise was free for me. This is a 21-day cruise through the Panama Canal, which is now almost at its end here in Vancouver.

So you can do all of this fee free. It is fee free spend on your credit card and then after the trip you look at your credit card statement and it just says cruise ship.

And would you believe it, even just playing a little bit there in the casino, I already got yet another offer in my email for yet another free cruise on Holland America.

Creator's Tips & Advice

✓Charge casino play up to $5,000 a day onto your room charge using your room key.
✓Play a little to please the cruise line and avoid being cut off from the strategy.
✓Withdraw the remaining balance in cash at the cashier after playing.
✓Store cash securely in the room safe and deposit it at a US port when possible.
✓Split charges among multiple credit cards to maximize rewards.
