Travel and Vacation

It’s a good time to snap up discounted cruise deals this winter as the recession lingers on and cruise lines are vying with each other for your custom.

However, cruise deals this winter are not likely to be as good as they were last year when travellers were offered such joys as free shore trips and onboard credits. But it’s still a good time for bargain cruise deals!

When you are in the process of choosing the best cruise deal for you this winter you will certainly want some expert advice, as this can make all the difference between just taking a cruise and actually delighting in the experience. You will be amazed when you land the cruise deal of your dreams so now it is essential to get it all right so that you have the time of your life on your cruise.

Do check out the types of restaurants on board and that they provide the kind of food you prefer as types of cuisine do vary between the different cruise lines. For example, if you have a special diet don’t forget to inform the cruise line on booking your cruise deal so they can meet with your request.

Trying to decide which cruise line is best is almost like trying to announce the best NFL team in a partisan crowd. So try to remember that this article is based on an unofficial rating of some of the major cruise lines. In fact, the selection of a line depends much on what a particular customer is looking for. Some think the cheapest cruise is the best, or the most luxurious, or the most kid-friendly, or the one providing the finest service. So try to read this article with these concepts in mind. Your top-rated cruise line may not be your neighbor’s. On one web site, cruisers rated cruise lines with the following criteria: Food, Entertainment, Activities, Staff, Accommodations, and Value. I only chose the lines that had at least 25 reviews. Here’s how they ranked:

Disney: 90.0

Celebrity: 85.4

Royal Caribbean: 83.4

Holland America: 75.9

Princess: 74.2

Carnival: 71.6

Costa: 65.0

Norwegian: 63.1

Disney is ranked highest above, but they are by no means the least expensive. Obviously, a huge draw for Disney is kid-appeal. The family programs are unparalleled. However, the ships can be quite elegantly appointed and there is a section on the ship for adults only. (However, the Italian-theme restaurant for adults only has an extra service charge). Just the same, it is families with young children who are most likely to select Disney cruises.
