Cruises

It is very easy to book a cruise.  It’s very hard to reserve and plan the perfect cruise!  We are a society that knows the price of everything and the value of nothing!  Although cruise lines make it very easy to look at prices, this doesn’t scratch the surface of what’s involved in planning a cruise vacation.  There is no better price in the cruise industry!  There is nothing online that has a better price than what will be offered by First Discount Travel (price integrity is mandated by the cruise lines).  Our business model is based on service and personal travel knowledge.   The cruise experts at First Discount Travel will handle everything from the flights, ground transfers, cabin selection, multiple insurance options, and more.  Most importantly, we’ll talk with you and match your desires to the right ship.  Ships range in size from 65,000 tons to 225,000 tons (all under the same brand).  Needless to say, the ships have very different amenities and will appeal to very different travelers.   The cruise industry is very dynamic and changes occur regularly.  The cruise experts of First Discount Travel will assist in finding the perfect itinerary, cruise line, ship, and cabin.

In addition to planning the logistics, we’d be happy to arrange pre and or post nights in the port city (very popular for European cruise).  The cruise experts of First Discount Travel have cruised every region of the globe.  We can give insight to the best itineraries and shore excursions in Alaska, the Mediterranean, the Baltic, the Caribbean, and the Pacific Coast of Mexico.   First Discount Travel works with the cruise line as well as third party vendors to provide the best shore excursion experience at the most competitive price.  We can explain the benefits of a cruise tour vs. just a cruise in Alaska.

Upscale cruise lines have added more inclusive options than the premium and mass market brands.  Although the up-front costs will be somewhat higher, the luxury lines more inclusive nature could be a better value.  The cruise experts of First Discount Travel are happy to explain the all-inclusive program of Crystal and Regent.  The travel experts of First Discount Travel have been on luxury lines such as Crystal and Oceania and would be happy to compare and contrast with the other cruise brands.
