hi guys, the best success that I have ever had was by following the Carls Cruise Cutter (i found it on google) - definately the no.1 idea that I've tried.

John Downunder - 6 years ago

good info

shontapl - 6 years ago

I have to say I was amazed at the amount of wasted food on the ship. Saw people make big plates and don't touch it.

There are several components to cutting costs during cruises. One place I discovered which successfully combines these is the Arack ship tips (google it if you're interested) without a doubt the most useful guide i've seen.Check out all the super information .

I'm not sure what line you are sailing with, but I always get all of the perks with a guarantee. Are there cruise lines which really do delete perks if one chooses a guarantee???

Remember you will be on "ship time."

Richard Kirk - 7 years ago

just a quick question i don't suppose you know what the disabled options are like do you

christine cooke - 6 years ago

check out "cruising with wheels"

Richard Kirk - 7 years ago

thanks its just an idea I've got running around my mind for a while

Honest Cruising - 7 years ago

+Richard Kirk hey Richard. Cruises cater to disabled guests also. Most, if not all, have accessible cabins, lifts, accessible restrooms around the ship, accessible entry to the pools and spaces for guests in chairs in the theatres. I would check the options depending on the ships you are looking to travel on.

Save money. Don't bring your wife.

I think the divorce attorney would cost more than taking her.

Re: decorating the door. When that was suggested to me I thought it sounded naff, plus I had a very easy room number to remember. I travel solo so a lot of the quirky things people do I don't bother with. But it worked because my door was the only one in the corridor that WASN'T decorated LOL.

here's a few suggestions for spending less on cruises
Look for restaurant special deals. Askonboard or keep an eye out for the occasional alternative restaurant deal to save money on a special meal.
Do not over tip. Most cruise lines add to your cruise bill a service fee that covers your cabin steward and dining staff.
Go on your own on shore trips. Cruise lines offer a variety of shore excursions in every port of call they visit but charge for them.
Save on your bar bill with discounted packages.
Don't waste your wine! If you order a bottle of wine with dinner and can't finish it, ask your waiter to cork it and save it for you for another night.

Honest Cruising - 7 years ago

+thatsJ201 Hey, yes Harmony of the Seas is currently offering even-night eastern and western Caribbean cruises departing from Florida.

I'm a former travel agent and one recommendation is bring some diphenhydramine (benedryl) and keep this with you at all times as it does conquer your sea sickness/nausea. As soon as you start to feel sick take 50mg and make sure you're near your cabin cause, it will knock you out and that's what you need to happen and as soon as it knocks you out, you must sleep even if it is for 1 hour. You wont believe that 1 hour will do you wonders and it will give you extra energy especially if your sea sickness/nausea should happen in the afternoon/early evening so if you conk out at lets say 2pm and you wake up fully refreshed at 3pm take a wake up shower and get dressed for dinner and you wouldn't believe the energy you'll have that evening that you'll probably have the energy for the midnight buffet. One thing I wish is that there would be a cruise line(s) that include every thing including unlimited soft drinks for those who do not drink alcoholic beverages. It seems to me after you board your ship, they're still dinging you for every thing. My wish is once you've paid for your cruise the absolute only items they should bill you for are port excursions and things of this nature. The gratuities, soft drinks should be inclusive.

Honest Cruising - 7 years ago

Thank you for that fantastic tip and we will be sure to add it to our next tips video. Generally, the more luxury liners are all inclusive but these are much more expensive. Thompson Cruises in the UK are all inclusive and that also includes the gratuities.

Wow this is a great series, loving it!

There are a few factors in saving money while on cruise trips. One resource I found which succeeds in merging these is the Voyage magic method (check it out on google) without a doubt the no.1 blueprint that I have ever heard of.Check out all the incredible info .

here's several tips for spending less on cruises
Look for restaurant specials. Ask on board or keep an eye out for the occasional alternative restaurant deal to save money with a special meal.
Book spa treatments on port days. Spas often discount services on days in port or at other slow times.
Go on your own on shore trips. Cruise lines offer a variety of shore excursions in every port of call they visit but charge for them.
Look for drink specials. If you don't drink enough to make a ackage pay, look for special discounts.
Bring your own drinks. Many lines are won't let you bring alcohol onboard (or they'll charge you a corkage fee), but a few let you bring on soft drinks, juice, bottled water and iced tea.
(I discovered these and why they work on Voyage magic method site )
