Take Advantage of the Current Low Pricing in Cruising – NOW!

What has the recent economic downturn done to the cruise industry?  Both the Cruise lines and the travel agencies did hurt, as business had slowed and the prices fallen.  However, in recent months, like everyone, we have noticed that the economy seems to be turning the corner and looking more positive going forward.  We are also in a business where everyone still needs a vacation, as we all need something good to look forward to.  Pricing of cruises will rebound following this recovery, and we will see prices rise closer to where they were in the early part of 2008.  But we're not there yet, and now is the time where you can take advantage of the current cruise market for your own benefit.  We are here to help you do this.

Here's how to take advantage of our current vacation situation: prices has never been lower, and you can be assured it won't not go lower, unless you believe that cruise lines will start paying us to cruise.  Those of us who still believe in the tooth fairy may, but the majority of us know that now is the time to reserve your trips at the preferred rates that are even lower than in 1987 when we first began as a cruise-only agency.

For example, for the same prices of 20 years ago, you can cruise on the state-of-the-art vessels like the new Oasis of the Seas, Celebrity Equinox, and the Norwegian Epic.  Some of these ships offering unique activities like ice skating, rock climbing, golfing, roller blading, wave surfing, bowling, etc., while dining at the finest restaurants that offer varied International cuisines, being pampered in the most luxurious spas afloat, and being entertained by the best shows at sea.  The only similarity of these two cruising eras are the low pricing.  This really emphasizes the great value that we are getting today from cruising.

So now is the time to book your winter holiday, perhaps Christmas, Spring break, next summer's Alaska cruise or even beyond, to lock in these prices on one or more cruises that you may want to do in the future.  For those who are really smart, you can even hold more than one cruise with just a small deposit to secure each of them.  Then if your plans change for any reason, you can cancel before the final payment due date, at no penalty and receive your full deposit refund.  It is absolutely risk-free way to take advantage of the great deals that are now being offered.  If you do proceed with all your booked cruises, you would have secured the best prices on all your future trips for the next 2 years, up to well into 2011!

But what if prices fall even further?  Although this is unlikely, we have you covered there as well.  All major cruise lines will protect your booking and adjust your rates if they reduce their pricing for any reason.  It is in their interest to protect their confirmed bookings, as we can always cancel before the final payment date and get our deposit back.

Therefore, you have nothing to lose and much to gain by putting your deposit on any of the cruises that you are thinking of, now.  By doing so, you can reserve the stateroom of your choice for any future cruise.  Otherwise if you wait and see, you may miss the boat on these extra ordinary savings!  You may now cruise in a balcony stateroom for what used to cost for an inside cabin, so treat yourself to some affordable luxury.

The good news is that ALL cruise destinations are on sale.  Alaska, Caribbean, and even Europe and exotic destinations are offering great bargains, but only for a short time.  So let us help you sort through the many offers to ensure you receive the best value for your money.  Call the experts; at CruiseAlaska.com, we're best qualified to assist you to navigate through all the noise.
