Tips on booking summer cruises

[luvmy4]

What are some tips on how to book a summer cruise for less? I have to travel in the summer months because of my children being in school.

Just keep an eye out for sales.

If you can travel the last week of May or the first 2 weeks of June it is usually a bit less. Other than that we just have to take the hit until my youngest graduates!

I agree with trvlgirlmq. Try to choose May or early June, but my reason for choosing that would be because less chance of hurricane issues. I try to only cruise the winter months for that reason, but I understand your reason for choosing summer months. Just be sure to purchase trip insurance to protect yourself against losing your hard earned cruise money. This past hurricane season was one of the worst, with many disappointed cruisers.

It is the most expensive time of the year. Consider an inside cabin to save money.

Book as early as possible. My last two and my upcoming cruises were booked during high priced summer to take a granddaughter still in high school. I booked as early as possible and watched the prices steadily increase on all three.

 

If prices go down you're protected. More likely prices will increase and you will be happy.

We tend to book late August right before school starts for lower rates.
