There is definitely something about watching the mainland disappear from view that melts away one's stresses.
Follow our cruise planning tips and you'll soon be watching the mainland disappear from sight along with all your stress. Read on and set sail for new horizons.
Tips for planning your Cruise:
Save time by consulting the experts
With the expanding market and increased competition, cruise companies are consistently offering discounted rates and special deals you can enjoy maximum pleasure for minimum offer especially if you plan and book ahead. Things can get a little confusing, that's why it's best to get the advice of an expert your Flight Shop travel consultant can save you a lot of time in research by offering the right cruise to suit your needs. Some of the tricky areas we can assist in include: early booking or group discounts, last minute specials, choosing the right cabin, options for children and much more.
The journey or the destination?
With so many options for cruising these days, it's important you know exactly what you are expecting from your cruise. Are you after a floating relaxation tour with the occasional port stop or an activity packed experience across the continents? Do you have three days or three months? There is a cruise holiday just right for you, but you need to decide what interests you.
Consider your cabin choices
Definitely consider spending a few more dollars for a better cabin: having an outside cabin with a window, or better yet a balcony, helps makes the cruise experience much more enjoyable and helps differentiate cruising from a resort vacation.
Cover yourself
All ships have good medical facilities on-board but they are not free. So purchase the best suitable insurance to cover hospital treatment, cancellation, medical evacuation and any activities you wish to participate in while you are away. Your travel consultant can recommend the best policy based on your cruise itinerary.
Consider staying longer
Think about extending your cruise with pre and post cruise accommodation or touring options. Many cruise lines will offer land packages to compliment your cruise or you can book a separate package with your travel consultant to ensure you get the most out of your holiday.
Traveling with the family?
Most large ships have great kids Clubs and activity programs all year round, but double check first. Obtain a program guide and let the kids rate the fun before your hop on board.
Celebrate good times
If you're celebrating a special occasion during your cruise, let your consultant know in advance. Most cruise lines will treat you to a complimentary cake and chorus of 'Happy whatever', and you can even arrange for a special private party.
Some reasons why cruising may be the best holiday option for you
