Luxury cruise line says price slashing is unprecedented
Here’s a real deal, cruising style: Silversea slashed prices for every single cabin on all of its 2010 sailings.
The first guest in a cabin gets 20 percent and the second guest sails for free. That averages out to a 60 percent discount.
Most of Silversea’s sailings include free round-trip economy airfare from 22 cities in the US and Canada.
"This has never been done before by any luxury cruise line," says Richard Turen, one of the cruise specialists on Wendy’s annual list of top travel planners. He added:
"This is the largest discount in the entire luxury cruise sector in my memory, because it’s for every sailing and all categories."
Bookings must be made by Dec. 31 this year. This deal is capacity-controlled, which means that the cruise line may revoke the discount once a certain capacity is reached on a given sailing, says Perrin Post.
Silversea was voted one of the top five small ship cruise lines for several years now by Conde Nast Traveler.
