CRUISE NEWS - CRUISE LINE PRICE WARS

Editorial Summary

The creator discusses a current price war occurring among major cruise lines. This trend is attributed to a rise in cancellations caused by changing health guidelines, masking policies, and increased testing requirements. Because many cruises are not selling at full capacity, lines are targeting last minute travelers with significant discounts. The creator notes that Disney Cruise Lines is offering unusual discounts for select cruises and Florida residents. Additionally, Carnival is offering select four night sailings at very low daily rates. Royal Caribbean is also providing competitive pricing for Caribbean and Alaska itineraries. While newer, popular ships maintain higher prices, older ships often have many available cabins. The creator suggests that travelers should check multiple cruise lines to find savings and even investigate if they can have existing bookings adjusted to match new sale prices. Although travelers must navigate various health restrictions and protocols, the current market offers opportunities to save hundreds or even thousands of dollars.
