Creator's Key Takeaways

after 15 years of chasing deals and following pricing trends we have a handy list of tips and tactics you can apply when you are looking to book a cruise

we chose the Chase Sapphire Reserve card it comes with a hefty annual fee but it offers big yearly travel credit free global entry registration airport lounge access yes and solid travel rewards

the best part is when you sign up for the card you get a huge miles bonus once you hit a certain spend we got a 60,000 mile bonus within a few short months

wave season is a three month period from about January 1st to March 31st every year when cruise lines and travel agents book a seriously large number of cruise cabins

Use a travel credit card that offers cashback or enhanced perks for travel expenditures
Book your cruise early but continue to watch for price drops
Consider last-minute cruises if you have the ability to pick up and go on short notice
Book an inside guarantee or obstructed view cabin to save money
