Welcome to World's Largest Cruise Week, October 17-23, 2011. This is the one week out of the year that most cruise lines will offer incredible discounts, upgrades, on board credit or reduced deposit to those savy people who book their cruise this week. If you are considering a cruise in the next 12-14 months, now is the time to book. Why? I'm glad you asked!
1. The further out you book, the longer you have to pay for it. A deposit will be due 24-48 hours from making the reservation, and final payment is due 75 days prior to your travel. That leaves you a lot of time to make monthly or quarterly payments.
2. With the upgrades offered by some cruise lines, you get more for your money. For example, the least expensive stateroom in an ocean view on a Carnival Cruise is category 6A. During their sale week, you can be upgraded to a 6D or higher. This saves you $200 or more on this stateroom. Great deal!
3. Some cruise lines are offering on board credit for booking this week. This can range from $50-$500 depending on the length of sailing, type of stateroom and cruise line. Just think what even $100 would buy on board: a spa treatment, shore excursion, photos, t-shirts or jewelry from the on board gift store.
