Ocean cruises to nearly any destination, even aboard luxury lines, are available at bargain pricing. The cruise line industry is relatively healthy; it has nearly doubled in passengers served over the past eight years. It aims to stay that way by being sensitive to pricing in an uncertain economy.
For example, New York-based Travel Dynamics International is waiving its $1,000 fee for single travelers. It’s also offering a 50% discount to couples on selected itineraries and hotel perks in your port of departure.
Fort Lauderdale-based Silversea is offering discounts and throwing in an on-board spending credit for add-ons like guided tours ashore or spa treatments.
What Makes This Trend Stand Out
- Affordable Cruises
- Opportunity to target budget-conscious travelers and offer discounted pricing and special perks for single travelers and couples.
Sectors Adopting This
- Cruise Line Industry
- Cruise lines can capitalize on the growing demand for affordable cruises by offering discounted pricing and added benefits to attract more passengers.
