Travel + Leisure Curated Cruises Featured This Week on American Express' Daily Wish

Each week, American Express cardholders have access to special curated sales dubbed the Daily Wish. Sometimes the items on offer are high-end electronics such as digital cameras or flat-screen TVs. This week, American Express teams with Travel + Leisure magazine to present discounted travel packages, including cruises from Windstar and Lindblad Expeditions. Each of these travel companies have received high ranks in the 2010 T+L World's Best Awards.

Here's what you can expect. Cruise fares are for two people sharing a cabin. Some of the deals are fairly competitive:
