The One Question We ALWAYS Get Asked
We’ve answered lots of questions related to cruises over the years but one has been asked FAR more than any other. How do you get the best deal on a cruise? Yes we do have an answer – and since we answer the question so often we decided to post it here on our homepage.
Here’s how to book your cruise to get the cheapest price:
Don’t book with the cruise line directly. Their price is probably not the lowest. Remember that online travel agencies (OTA) receive a commission from cruise lines (about 15%) when they book your cruise for you. And they are able to make their prices lower than the cruise line knowing they will be receiving this commission. You’ll also almost certainly miss out on bonuses and perks offered by large online travel agencies. They are able to offer perks such as onboard cash and free drinks by way of their commission as well.
Don’t book with a travel agent either. Their cruise rates simply cannot compete with the larges OTA’s like Expedia. If you need lots of help picking an exact cruise line, ship, destination, etc then travel agents are great. But most people do not need this level of assistance. And anything you need to know is a quick Google search away. The convenience and rates of booking your own cruise online cannot be beat.
Book through Expedia instead. Why? Because they always have as good a deal as anywhere else (or better). You can spend hours convincing yourself of this or just take our word for it. The reason why is that no one else, not even other OTAs, books more cruises than Expedia. This huge buying power gives them more leverage to negotiate prices and terms with cruise lines. They in turn are happy to pass some of this discount on to customers in order to maintain their buying power. And the cycle continues…
(Expedia.com even owns other cruise booking sites such as Hotwire.com, Orbitz, and Travelocity.)
