Time again for World’s Largest Cruise Sale
More than two dozen cruise lines and 5,000 travel agents will team up again for “National Cruise Vacation Week Oct. 17-23 for “The World’s Largest Cruise Sale.”
“For the public this means potential savings of US$100 to $5,000 or more in some cases, credits for shipboard spending valued at $50 to over $300, upgrades to suite accommodations, or other incentives such as complimentary shore excursions, deposit waivers and more,” says CLIA (Cruise Lines International Association).
Among the offers: Three to five-day Caribbean cruises starting at $249; six to eight day sailings starting at $429; $2,000 savings per couple on a river cruise through Burgundy and Provence; and two-for-one fares with free airfare plus up to $5,000 in bonus savings on sailings in Europe or the Pacific.
“There’s never been anything like National Cruise Vacation Week. For a very limited time, vacationers have the chance to purchase the cruise of their dreams on any of more than 200 ships sailing in every part of the world,” said Bob Sharak, CLIA’s executive vice president of marketing and distribution. He adds:
“Cruising has always been the best value in vacationing but National Cruise Vacation Week is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.”
All of CLIA’s cruise line members are participating in the event.
Incentives can be found across all cruise categories – from the major cruise brands to ultra-luxury companies to niche market and adventure cruise lines, including river cruises in Europe and Asia, CLIA says.
