Looking at United Cruises, which I understand is independent from United airlines, for a MSC cruise later next year. I am a 1K, and am wondering if there is any benefit other than the 6x miles they are offering on the spend booking with them. Pricing is similar across multiple TA's and the cruise line itself.

Only gotcha is, this is a group family travel with about 8 cabins, so coordination will be needed. Anyone have experience with this agency? Please feel free to move it, if this is not the appropriate forum.
