What’s most important to know, when buying a last minute cruise deals

Often, last minute cruise deals come with rules that may not be easily spelled out on computers.  So protecting yourself is #1.

To best protect yourself, your first step should be in talking to and planning to buy from a human; not a computer (for-go buying on anyone’s website; even the cruise line).  This way, that person will voluntarily tell you all you need to know, and if not, either find someone you better know, or ask all such questions !

Know … Once it’s only 90 days till the ship sails … This last minute deal “you see”, is NOT A SPECIAL PRICING that is being given by this website you’re looking at (unless of course, it’s the cruise line).  This pricing is available to all cruise-only and travel agents.

Plan to buy this last minute deal from someone you know … Or an agency that is well-know and recognized by the travel industry and travel writers.  Truly, not just when it’s 90 days from sailing, but ALWAYS. 

Remember, you don’t personally know these cruise lines.  So take head, as the “industry’s travel writers” continue to remind consumers/cruisers, to buy your cruise (and land tours/all-inclusives) from an agent.  If you don’t know a cruise-only agent (your industry’s specialists), then a local agent !  It continues to be to your advantage, to have “someone” in between you and the cruise line, who will stand behind the vacation you are buying; and I don’t mean a computer or a computer company ! 

 

 

Why take a chance with your vacation !  Or you vacation money !   The industry is here to protect you … It's in your hands to listen !
