FAQ
Is there an all-inclusive cruise?
It is not possible to cruise on all-inclusive ships as they do no offer meals for passengers with dietary limitations. There is no room service, laundry service, or other amenities like spas, pools, gyms, etc.
Some cruise lines do offer "all-inclusive" deals that cover all aspects of the trip, including alcohol. These packages usually include airfare, hotel accommodations, entertainment, and beverages.
How long does the journey to port take?
There are many factors that affect how long it takes to reach the port. These include distance between port and ship, speed of ship travel, etc. You should note that not all ships dock at the same location as the shore. This allows them to unload their passengers quickly. Others dock further from shore so the ship takes longer to arrive.
Why shouldn't I book my cruise in advance?
It is not always necessary to book your cruise in advance. Sometimes, it is cheaper to wait until last minute. It is best to book your cruise well in advance, even if it seems like a good idea. This will allow you to benefit from special promotions and deals offered by cruise companies.
Which place should I take on my cruise vacation?
It is important to consider the places you wish to visit if you are looking for different ports of calls. You can also use this information to help narrow down your search. For example, if history is your passion, you may choose to cruise to destinations such as Alaska, Bermuda or Canada. You might prefer a cruise that includes beaches and water sports such as Jamaican, Aruba, Costa Rica or Panama, Tahiti or Costa Rica.
What kind of cabin should I get?
When deciding on a cabin, think about what size room you want. Is it okay to share a bathroom with someone else? Or would you prefer to have your own bathroom? Is noise important to you? Is it important to you that you spend more time in the stateroom or the dining area? Also consider whether you desire an interior view, or a balcony. Balconies offer more space but can sometimes be noisy. Interior views are typically quieter then balconies.
