- On most Tuesdays we have last minute sale on 7 to 12
night cruises to the Caribbean on Royal Caribbean and sometimes Celebrity
that usually sail within 4 to 8 weeks. They are usually some excellent prices
on oceanview, balcony and sometimes suites. If there are only 2 of you traveling
per cabin you can often find a great price - sometimes there may even be triple
ad quad cabins available. It is hard to predict which ships will have these
specials so yo have to be flexible and you may have to move fast arranging
airfare as there is limited space and you have to pay within 24 hours of making
the reservation. Just fill out a quote request and lets know you are looking
for a "last minute special" and be sure to indicate a budget.
