Rates for travel fluctuate for many reasons. The season, the itinerary, and how many people are planning to travel at any given time all play a part. For example, spring break is more expensive than when school is in session and the week before a holiday when everyone is home cooking, cleaning and generally going crazy will be less expensive than the holiday week when everyone is traveling. Being flexible by even a couple of days can often save you money. On this page you will find a list of some of the ways you can save money whenever you travel. At the bottom of the page you will also find the latest specials being offered.
Loyalty Programs Participation in a “loyalty program” is a great way to reap benefits. Discounts on future trips, special pricing, discounts during your trip on amenities, and extra special treatment are just some of the ways that cruise lines and all-inclusives reward people who are repeat guests. Some cruise lines offer loyalty members of related cruise lines special pricing or privileges. For example, Royal Caribbean and Celebrity will honor your loyalty status for either line. Princess, Cunard, Holland America, Costa, Seabourn and Carnival are all members of the World's Leading Cruise Lines and offer past guests Vacation Interchange PrivilegesSM. As long as you have cruised on any of their ships, you are entitled to past guest savings when they are offered.
Membership in the loyalty program is generally free though you usually cannot join until you have been a passenger or guest at least once. We will be happy to assist you in joining the loyalty program of your choice. If you are already a member of a loyalty program, be sure to let us know so that we can get you the best pricing available.

Early Booking Discounts
Most cruise lines and all inclusive locations will give you a discount if you book your trip in advance. The bonus is that you also get first choice of location for your stateroom or room! Should prices go up, as they sometimes do with popular sailings or routes, your price is locked in. In the event that there is a price drop, many cruise lines will credit you for the price difference. When you book with us, we will watch prices and let you know if we can get you a lower price.
Senior Discounts
If the cruise lines want to give anyone age 55 or over a discount, why complain? So, even if you don’t consider yourself a “senior” be sure to let us know if you are 55 or over. Then you can shock the cruise staff when you are the one closing the ship down at night! Many senior deals are not available until close to the sailing date. So, if your schedule is flexible, let's us know.
Military Discounts
In honor of your service to our country, several cruise lines now offer you discounts. Depending on the cruise line, the offer may only be available to active military or they may include retired military. Similar to senior discounts, military discounts tend to offered close to the sailing date. Let us know if you are in the military and we will let you know when special rates become available.
Union Discounts
If you are a member of a union, you may be eligible for cruise savings when sailing on NCL.
