I still think their cash-back program is good despite not actually giving you cash back directly. Traveling on any cruise ship has expenses that we never budgeted for and here may be the extra cash you need for those onboard extras. I personally do not know of anybody that has kept on budget on a cruise. Without fail they under-budget and this leads me to think the cruise ships themselves, perhaps the online travel company that sold you your tickets, or perhaps both should work out a sensible realistic budget for people . Perhaps they feel if they tell you all the incidental costs that you’ll go elsewhere looking for a better deal. There should be a mandatory disclosure “before” disembarking so that the cruise is more to your worked out budget. This would take the strain of money worries away and lend more time for why your taking the cruise in the first place, which is probably to have fun and to relax. Bon Voyage!

Low prices have attracted lots of experienced cruisers who know these great prices won’t last forever…. Personally I have to decided to cut purchases before I go or cruise bliss addles my brains and I can’t think like an adult!
