Are Discount Travel Web Sites Worthwhile?
Sites like Travelocity and Expedia are great ways to monitor current prices. Always watch the fine print as you may receive unexpected port charges, taxes, or additional processing fees. Remember, cruising is not just about getting the best price. You’ll want to consider the age and quality of the ship, onboard activities, destinations, and most importantly the guarantee if something goes wrong, they will be there to assist you. Many times, online cruise deals will offer prices as ‘Hot’ or ‘Won’t last long’ type deals. Yet, if you check another online cruise seller, they are often selling the exact same deal. Watch out for hidden cancellation fees as well.
