TIPS & TRICKS FOR A DISCOUNT CRUISE

The best way to book a cruise.
Since a cruise combines many elements of your vacation into one package, booking a cruise is a little more complicated than just buying a plane ticket or reserving a hotel room. Getting some expert assistance can go a long way in helping you to pick the right cruise at the best price. Unfortunately, most general local travel agencies simply don't book enough cruises to directly negotiate with a cruise line for access to the lowest rates available. They also often lack the resources needed for their employees to gain real experience in evaluating the vast amount of different cruising experiences available. The clout and expertise of a huge online travel agency can help you to pick the right cruise and save money.

Is cruising a good value compared to other vacations?
Absolutely! There are cruises to suit every budget, from the budget-minded to the most luxurious. More importantly, a cruise offers the best travel value for your dollar. Your fare includes: all your meals, accommodations, onboard activities, parties and entertainment. You will know what your vacation will cost, before you travel. Your only extra expenses will be drinks, optional shore excursions, and personal services such as spa activities or gift purchases. This is why cruising is becoming the most popular form of leisure travel. The total package cost is hundreds of dollars less than any other prearranged vacation package.

How can I get the best cruise price?
The best way to get the best cruise price is to book in advance. As you get closer to departure date, the cruise price increases. Exceptions to that rule apply when a particular cruise has not sold out. This is rare and often cruise lines will offer great savings to help sell their cabins in advance.

If I have to cancel my cruise , will I be penalized?
All cruise lines have different cancellation policies and penalties that may apply.

What about cruise passengers that have special needs?
The cruise lines welcome passengers with special needs and work hard to assist them throughout their trip. It is essential that the cruise line know well in advance if you have any special medical, physical or other requirements that need to be addressed. You should also advise the cruise line of any special dietary needs. Most modern cruise ships have a number of cabins specially designed to accommodate passengers in wheelchairs or in need of TTY communications. Service animals are permitted on board if prior arrangements have been made.

What are the proper tipping procedures of the ship?
Tipping is a matter of individual preference. A general rule of thumb is to plan for about $3.00 per person/per day for your room steward and dining room waiter, and about half that amount for your busboy. Other ship board personnel can be tipped for special services at your discretion. Some cruise lines do not require, accept, or encourage tipping.

Are there non-smoking areas aboard the ship?
Virtually all ships have smoking and non-smoking tables and/or sections in the lounges and dining rooms. In fact, many dining rooms are now smoke-free, reflecting passenger requests. If you wish to be seated in a non-smoking area, just tell your travel representative. In open seating situations, you can advise your waiter or the Restaurant Manager.
