Cruise deals, answered

Straight answers to the questions we get asked most.

What is a last minute cruise deal?

A last minute cruise deal is a sailing departing within roughly the next 90 days that the cruise line has discounted to fill remaining cabins. Prices can be well below the original fare, but cabin choice is limited and you need to be ready to travel. Our sailing soon list shows current departures from Australian ports with the cheapest cabin still available on each.

Are cruise prices on this site per person or per cabin?

Per person, based on two people sharing a cabin, with port taxes and government fees included. A cabin for two therefore costs about double the figure shown. Solo travellers and third or fourth guests are priced differently, which we confirm in your quote.

Do prices include flights?

No. Fares are for the cruise only. Most sailings here start and finish in an Australian port. For one-way sailings, such as Sydney to Singapore, you will need a flight home, and we can quote it with the cruise.

What is included in a cruise fare?

Your cabin, main dining and buffet meals, standard drinks such as water, tea and coffee, live shows and most onboard activities. Drinks packages, Wi-Fi, specialty restaurants, spa treatments and shore excursions cost extra, except in suite classes such as Celebrity’s The Retreat, which include drinks, Wi-Fi, room service and laundry.

Which cruise lines can Luxury Cruises Guide book?

More than 50 of the world’s leading cruise lines, through our partner network. That covers every major line sailing from Australia and worldwide, including Celebrity Cruises, Royal Caribbean, Princess, Norwegian Cruise Line, MSC, Holland America, Cunard, Azamara, Oceania, Silversea, Seabourn, Regent Seven Seas, Ponant and HX Expeditions.

How do I get a quote?

Use the Easy Quote form to tell us where, when and what cabin you want, or call 1300 214 840. A cruise specialist replies with a shortlist of sailings, cabins and prices in Australian dollars. There is no charge and no obligation.

Why book with Luxury Cruises Guide

We know these ships

Our specialists sail them. Ask which deck to book on Celebrity Edge, whether The Retreat is worth it, or how tendering works at Mystery Island.

Cruise line fares, plus our extras

You pay the cruise line's advertised fare. We add the bonuses we can get you, such as onboard credit, and handle the paperwork.

Here before, during and after

One team from quote to homecoming. If a port drops out or a flight moves, you call us, not a call centre.
