- You get up to 45,000 miles per booking
- You also get free gratuities on Norwegian cruises via promo
- United Premier members get additional amenities (wine on-board, etc)

What's the catch? Who wouldn't pay $25 for that? Are the reservations somehow not guaranteed or treated as lower priority by Norwegian?
No one pays the listed price for cruises. I’d cross check that pricing with the cruise line before booking with United.
