The deals are coming to an end- 3 days left.

Well what a great campaign the cruise lines have given to their passengers over the last 7 weeks and it all finishes on the 28th Feb. For the staff at cruise.co.uk January and February has been very busy with thousands of customer making the most of deals that I think will be a struggle to beat for the future campaigns of 2015.

 

 

For a lot of cruisers the best deals have been with Royal Caribbean and Celebrity. With both offering cruises out of the UK the extra benefits have just been a must. Royal offering Free drinks and $ to spend or Free gratuities earlier in the campaign and Celebrity offering 2 of either $ to spend, Free Drinks or gratuities paid.


P&O and Cunard have also been offering bonus on board credit and some very generous too. i did a booking tonight, Queen Elizabeth, 30th August, 16 nights for £2019pp in a balcony but what about this for a bonus, $895pp on board credit. i think that couple will struggle to spend all that.

 

A favourite of mine has to be Norwegian Cruise Line (NCL). They have been offering $ to spend and free drinks for all in the cabin but their prices have been so cheap. How can they be making money when they do a cabin for £500pp, give drinks free and $100 on board credit?

 

I do wonder what they can offer in the summer to tempt those that have not already booked but before that will be all the new brochures in April for the next big sales push of cruises for Summer 2016 through to late 2017.

 

*** And don’t forget all those great 2-4-1 River cruise deals, some truly amazing prices that have made the phones go crazy as soon as they come out***
