Pro Tips From Creators

The most-shared advice for Travel Weekly.

  1. Use the ship's diverse neighborhoods to switch between lively activities and tranquility.

  2. Always check the 'alternatives' button for flights to find better deals or different times.

  3. Use the 'all included' package to save money on drinks and Wi-Fi compared to individual costs.

  4. Check for refundable flight options to allow guests to pay the flight cost as part of their balance rather than upfront.

  5. Book exclusive dining experiences in advance

  6. Lean on travel partners for education on luxury cruise options

  7. Consider the unique itineraries when choosing a cruise

  8. Agents should use short breaks or event voyages to introduce newcomers to Cunard
