Creator's Key Takeaways

Carnival is probably the one that seemed the clearest, the most straightforward, and probably the easiest of all of them.

Disney lets you start the gifting at $25, whereas Carnival starts from $100.

Royal Caribbean... looks really old. I can't believe that this hasn't been updated yet.

Giftly... is a way for you to create a very official looking gift certificate to any cruise line, any theme park, any restaurant.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Check each cruise line's gift card program for ease of use and denomination options.
If gifting to someone on NCL, ensure they already have a cruise booked, as you need their reservation details.
