Last minute delas?
Question:
Anyone know a good web site for last minute cruise deals? Thanks. Peter
Response:
Best deals are proably available between 30 and 60 days from sailing. After final payment is due. Often after the 30 day mark prices may go up based on limited availability. Ships today are sailing at 97-103% of capacity. Traveler’s fears are less and the economy is on the rise.
Response:
Ok, is there a specific place other then Expedia or Travelocity where you can get good deals? What they offer don’t seem to be much of a deal.

www.cruise411.com had the RCCL/Celebrity Happy Hour specials every Monday, but now I don’t see them. – Hide quoted text — Show quoted text – > Ok, is there a specific place other then Expedia or Travelocity where you > can get good deals?

Response:
The quick search area at the top of their web page seems to work & lists all of their deals in pricing order. I’ve been noticing that our local paper where I live in Florida has prices just as good lately & a lot of their cruises have bus transportation thrown in free.

happy hour sales are ongoing, all agents that I know receive them. give your agent a call tell ehem you are flexible and want the best deal on the happy hour list. Mnay agetns will just file this stuff as it doesn’t mean much to the average client who books in advance. For me it is one more email that I generally don’t read. For someone such as the OP it is a great source of information. Joseph Coulter

To be notified of very good pricing develope a relationship with a good cruise travel agent. They get faxes every day.

I like www.CruiseCheap.com. They have a section on Last Minute Deals, Senior Deals, Florida residents and a bunch of other stuff. It’s actually a pretty cool website. a lot of interesting stuff. Easy to get around.
