Best travel months are April, May, September, and October for good cruise prices and least crowded. Schools are in session so there will not be many kids on the cruise.
Do your own research online or ask a travel agent pertinent questions. Get price comparisons from at least 3 agencies. Have them compete for your business! Tell them you want things such as: onboard ship credits, paid gratuities or a drink package.
When I took my last cruise, Celebrity Cruises was offering their 1-2-3 package. You could have your choice of the onboard credits, paid gratuities, or a drink package for all alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks. We chose the drink packages (1 for each of us) and our online travel agency (CruCon.com) paid for all of our gratuities and gave us onboard credits.
Those items saved us a huge amount of cash! Make the travel agent work for you!!
