SmartCruiser picks
Sorted by what you save, biggest firstEvery sailing, every line
Stack any filters, then pick a sortPrices are per person, double occupancy, in US dollars, and include cruise fare, taxes, fees and port expenses as published by the cruise line at the moment you load this page. Fares are capacity controlled and change daily; the fare is confirmed when you book. Flights, hotels and transfers are extra unless the line’s offer says otherwise. SmartCruiser instant savings and bonus onboard credit are provided by SmartCruiser on top of the cruise line’s price and are not available when booking direct; amounts are per stateroom, vary by stateroom category and are shown for the lowest category offered. Special SmartCruiser rates are pricing SmartCruiser holds on that sailing for its clients, with extra onboard credit; you book your own stateroom and travel on your own. Senior fares apply to guests 55 and over; resident fares need proof of residency in a listed state or province at check-in; police and fire fares apply to active or retired police, fire and EMT personnel with ID. Qualifier-fare savings are measured against the best fare the cruise line offers the general public for the same stateroom category on the day the list was pulled, updated weekly.

Cruise deal questions we answer every day
Are these cruise deals cheaper than booking direct with the cruise line?
The cruise fare itself is the cruise line’s own price, the same on SmartCruiser.com as on the line’s site, with taxes, fees and port expenses already included here. What changes is what comes with it: bonus onboard credit from SmartCruiser where the line allows it, Special SmartCruiser rates on sailings where we hold our own space, and the senior, resident and police & fire fares we check against the public price every week.
What is a SmartCruiser pick?
A sailing where booking through SmartCruiser gets you something you do not get booking direct: instant savings, bonus onboard credit, a Special SmartCruiser rate we hold on that sailing, or a senior, resident or police & fire fare that beats the best public price. Picks lead every destination and cruise line page and are re-checked weekly.
Do the prices include taxes and fees?
Yes. Every price on SmartCruiser.com includes cruise fare, taxes, fees and port expenses, so the number you see is the number you pay for the cruise. Flights, hotels, gratuities, drinks packages and excursions are extra and quoted separately.
How do I get the bonus onboard credit?
Book by phone at 1-800-444-1560 or through the booking engine and tell us the sailing. On SmartCruiser picks marked with code PICKS10 the credit is 10% of the cruise fare, per stateroom, applied to your onboard account. On other sailings the credit depends on the line and the fare booked; we confirm the amount before you pay the deposit.
Can I combine a senior, resident or police & fire fare with other offers?
The qualifier fare replaces the public fare rather than stacking with it, but it combines with SmartCruiser bonus onboard credit where the line allows it and with the line’s loyalty perks. If you qualify for more than one fare we check which is lower.
When is the best time to book a cruise deal?
For the widest choice, during wave season from January to March when the lines run their biggest promotions, or as soon as a sailing opens, since fares rise as ships fill. For the lowest price on a specific week, inside 90 days on our last-minute page, as long as you can travel at short notice and drive to the port or find reasonable flights.
Do you have river cruise deals too?
Yes, on their own pages so they are never mixed with ocean sailings: river cruise deals, Danube, Rhine, Christmas market cruises and last-minute river cruises.
