Fall is Value Season for Cruises

Last week we booked two ladies on a 7-night Mexico cruise and the price was a little more than $500 each for an ocean view stateroom on Holland America Line. They are going in November and are excited about getting such a great deal.

The Fall is always the most challenging time for the cruise lines to sell their inventory of staterooms. As a result, consumers have the opportunity to buy high quality cruises as bargain basement prices. The problem is that many folks think waiting to the last minute will get them the best deal, but, what is happening is that the cruise lines are selling out at their sales prices and are closed for bookings close-in to sailing.

Mexico from Southern California, and the Caribbean from Florida or other Gulf Coast states, have a wide range of cruises available at super discounts. The key is to snatch them up while the good deals abound.
