Exclusive savings and benefits on select sailings and cruise lines*, including:
Contemporary cruise lines, also known as mainstream, deploy larger, mega-type ships in the 2,500 to more than 3,500 passenger range. They offer a wide-range of onboard amenities and activities such as large pool facilities, spas, fitness areas, casinos, more than three restaurants, stage productions, live music and dedicated children’s programs. These ships are great for family and multi-generational groups because of the number of choices they provide. Most offer itineraries all over the world.
Premium cruise lines deploy large, but not mega ships. They carry around 2500 to 3000 passengers. They offer similar amenities to their contemporary counterparts, while enhancing the luxuriousness of the offerings. These lines are best known for a more sophisticated onboard experience, with upscale accommodations, enhanced dining, superior service and onboard enrichment opportunities. Their itineraries will include more exotic locales and overnight port stays.
The luxury cruise lines tend to have smaller ships, generally less than 2500 passengers. They feature unique itineraries that take you to lesser known destinations. These luxury lines offer a more “boutique” experience onboard and focus on fine dining, destination immersion and upscale surroundings.
The top-of-the-line for ocean cruising. These ships offer luxury décor in the cabin and public spaces, haute cuisine, fine wines and more cultural experiences both onboard and onshore. Typically, these lines are of an “all-inclusive” nature – with certain shore excursions, alcoholic beverages, gratuities and more included.
River cruising takes you on a journey down the storied rivers of the world, including Europe, Russia, Asia, India and Egypt. There are all the benefits of ocean cruising – unpack just once, but visit multiple destinations, food is included, etc. – but because you are on the river, you dock in the middle of town, then walk off the ship! It’s an intimate experience with most river cruise lines carrying 300 passengers or less. You spend less time getting there and more time being there.
