Wave Season
The first months of the year bring many of the strongest cruise promotions: reduced fares, free upgrades and bundled perks. See current offers at WaveSeason.com.
Flash and seasonal sales
Lines run sales throughout the year, from Black Friday to summer promotions. The network gathers them at SaleOfAllSails.com.
Cruise-line and directory offers
The Official Cruise Directory lists current deals from cruise lines and agencies.
Repositioning cruises
When ships move between seasons (e.g. Caribbean to Europe in spring), fares per night can be very low. Great for travelers with time.
Last-minute
Unsold cabins close to sailing can be discounted, but choice is limited. Best for flexible travelers who live near a port.
River-cruise offers
River lines often promote air credits or reduced solo supplements. See the Official River Cruise Directory.
Make a Deal a Real Deal

- Check whether the offer beats the line’s standard promotions.
- Add flights and hotel: find them at AirfaresForLess.com and RoomsCheap.com.
