Where does the week go? Since my return home I have been quite busy booking clients for 2024 and 2025. Even inquires about itineraries for 2026. During these bookings I have seen a few last-minute cabins being available for the holiday season. What a great time to get away to the warm Caribbean and celebrater Christmas or New Years.  As I will always say….book into the future for your best rates and cabin locations.



I have been keeping an eye for Black Friday Sales and so far there has not been a lot published. So far I have seen Seabourn, Royal Caribbean, Fun Jet Vacations, Club Med, Celebrity has a Holiday Sale. I do expect there to be more as we get closer to Thanksgiving. I will bring you those as they come up.


Seabourn receive up to $2,000 onboard credit on select Seabourn voyages when you book by November 27th. Enjoy a Two Category Veranda Suite Upgrade, and 50% reduced deposits on select 2024 ultra-luxury voyages.

For those who like to plan well in advance, our company has some nice block space on Icon of the Seas which is debuting soon.

How about the Mediterranean next summer? These are wonderful ports of call and who does not love Greece?

Or what about Alaska? This is the Carnival Luminosa that was formally with Costa. It has been totally refurbished and has a gorgeous Italian style interior.

Have you ever thought about the Panama Canal? This is fabulous itinerary and a great Celebrity ship as well.

All of the above sailings are block space to give you the best possible rates. Just take a look at the rate comparisons, our rates vs what you see online. I can get you booked easily on any of these sailings.

 

Finally, I am still waiting to hear when our Customer Appreciation sailing will be open for booking very soon on the Sun Princess. Dec 7 – 14, 2024. This will sail the Western Caribbean and the prices will be great. Our inventory will sell quickly so start thinking if this is a sailing you want to experience the new Sun Princess.   As soon as I get the info, I will send out an email dedicated to that sailing alone.

Have a pleasant week ahead. Please share this email with those who love to travel just like you.

 

Cheers,
