Regional Cruise Fares
Some of the best cruise deals in marketplace are called Regional Promotions. Cruise lines often use this method to top off ships that are nearly filled. It allows them to offer a reduced cruise price to a limited audience by imposing geographical restrictions. One of the reasons that savvy cruisers find a knowledgeable cruise specialist and stick with them is the fact that there are many of these special fare programs that may or not be visible to cruiser’s doing casual research on the web. So be sure to ask about this one.
CAUTION: If you are offered a regional fare and you don’t live in that area and can’t prove residency, don’t do it. Cruise lines have the right to check you eligibility on sailing day and charge for the difference before you board. It does happen.
