You can get an airfare quote
directly from the cruise line or a travel agent, but
that's not necessarily your best air deal. Here is
where it pays for you to shop direct. Contact the
airline(s) who fly from your hometown to get the
best airfare possible to-and-from your departure
port.
Cruise Tip: Search on Tuesday's or
Wednesday's for the best airfares. Airlines adjust
seat inventories and prices and open availability
mid-week. One of the best ways to do that is to
visit airline Web sites for the best deals. Also, be
sure to coordinate the cruise booking with your air
booking. You don't want to find out once you booked
that "non-refundable" airfare, that the cheap cruise
price is no longer available or the cabin you wanted
is sold out.
It's best to travel to your departure port the day
before the ship heads out to sea. Weather and
possible mechanical breakdowns can delay your
flight. If you fly on the same day as the ship
leaves, you could be left standing at the pier
waving goodbye to fellow passengers as they head out
for their cruise vacation. Come in the night before
and take a taxi or the hotel's free shuttle to the
pier the next day.
Cruise Tip: Start your
search for that bargain cruises and pre or
post cruise hotel room online at;
Travelocity, Expedia,
Priceline, or Travelnow.com. Before or
after your cruise consider the time you have. If you
get in early or plan to fly out late in the day, go
exploring, shopping or sightseeing at the departure
or returning port.
Book your
shore excursions
on your own. If you visit the cruise line's web
site, you will find hundred's of listings for
sightseeing tours at the ports of call you visit.
The industry calls them shore excursions. To
be sure you get to do just what you want , book your
tours way before sailing, because shore excursions
can sell out quickly.
But if you book these
shore excursions through the cruise line,
your cheap cruise will all of a sudden become much
more costly. Cruise lines have "marked up" these
tours to include a nice profit for themselves.
Consider a third-party
sightseeing vendor (
Shore Trips,
Shore Excursions
Group ,
Port Promotions,
Viator or
other suppliers ) . You can find them online and
compare prices to those offered by the cruise line.
Cruise Tip: Do your
homework. Check out the sights you want to see as
well as the vendors online, so you will will know
what you want to do in each port prior to sailing.
A word of caution. If your return to the pier
at the port-of-call is delayed , the ship may sail
without you. If you booked through an
independent company and not the cruise line, make
sure you know that companies reputation and track
record.
Protect your travel investment. If your like the
rest of us, chances are you take just one vacation a
year. It's likely you have saved for months, if not
years for this trip of a lifetime. a sudden
illness or accident could ruin it all. You might
have to cancel your trip all together. Costing you
thousands of dollars.
Cruise Tip: If you are
considering travel
insurance, do not purchase a policy sold by
the cruise line. Most cruise line policies do not
cover pre-existing conditions or may not fit your
needs. Shop for a policy that covers trip
interruption or cancellation from an independent
insurance provider (
Travel Guard as an example ) who have a
number of protection options and prices. You may the
coverage and prices are better than what the cruise
line quoted.
