Cruise
Secrets Revealed...
Did you Know?
|
Most cruise lines do not allow travel
agents to advertise prices lower than
the cruise lines offer to those who book
directly with the cruise line.
However, some do allow travel agencies
to discount by rebating part of the
commissions, when dealing directly with
a potential customer. If you are
shopping the Internet for cruise prices,
you're most likely going to find many
travel sites quoting the same price.
But, the price you're seeing on a travel
agent's web site is not necessarily the
best price that travel agency is able to
offer you. To find out a travel agency's
best price on a particular cruise, you
should call them, or e-mail them a
request for a price quote. Most travel
agencies have toll-free phone numbers.
Don't hesitate to call or email them--
you could save a lot! |

How it works...
Sometimes the best kept

the best cruise deal you may not know the best ways to
save. You may have dig to find the fine print. You may
have to ask. Or, it may be right up front for all to
see. Let's reveal the Secret Cruise Deal Steps to more

sailings.
Be sure to look for a discount
based on any of the above. And if you don't see it. Ask.
There's no need to go direct to the cruise lines, or to
anyone else--you'll find everything you need right here.

Everybody loves to dine in
chic restaurants, enjoy Broadway-style spectaculars, and
watch the sun sink into the sea on their vacation. But
lately it's harder to afford the luxurious escape you've
been dreaming of. Don't settle for less--cruising offers
all the pampering you love at prices everyone can
afford.

Did you know when you
book, you get a Fully refundable, no-risk deposit?
Maybe you've found the cruise of your dreams, but can't
bring yourself to click the "Buy Now" button until
you've talked it over with your family. In the mean
time, call a Cruise Expert, and he or she will arrange a
courtesy 24-hour hold of up to 24 hours, availability
permitting. Or, you can make a deposit--online or over
the phone--and be confident knowing you've secured the
stateroom and price you want. If you find out later that
you have to cancel, just call and you will get a refund
of your deposit at anytime up to the day before final
payment is required. No questions asked.
Note: Some cruise line offers such as flash promotions
and last minute deals require a non-refundable deposit
or non-refundable full payment at time of booking. Check
with the cruise line for their policy concerning this
type of booking. All deposits are placed subject to
cruise line specific rule, regulations and restrictions.
Past
Passenger Perks
Get
Upgrades, Onboard Credit and More!
Congratulations! If you’ve
been on a cruise before, you now qualify as a "past
passenger", which entitles you to some serious perks,
such as:
-
Exclusive rates
-
Stateroom upgrades
-
Onboard credit
-
And much more!
Plus, the benefits multiply each time you sail with your
favorite cruise line. Some go so far as to extend their
past-passenger benefits to their “sister” cruise lines,
which means you can take your past-passenger status with
you when trying out a new ship on a different cruise
line.
