When are cruises cheaper to take? 12/2/2005 10:25:24 AM Link | | Add comment In the past 4 years the best time to get better cruise rates have proven to be in the fall of each year - September through the first 2 or 3 weeks in December. Once the children go back to school the sailings become very soft and therefore the cruise lines lower their rates to fill the ships. I have found that during this time there are a lot of discounted cruises out there and the deals are phenomenal from 3 to 7 day sailings. You can find rates from 249.00 per person for 3 night cruises up to 549.00 per person for the 7 night cruises. And, there are certain sailings that might be even lower. You can also find some cheaper rates during the month of January and the beginning of February of each year. We will follow up on this again. |
