We recommend booking your airfare as part of your cruise for all but seasoned airline travelers. The cruise-line is very knowledgeable, reliable, and professional. They choose the best times and most reliable airline carriers eliminating the stress and confusion of your trip. They are also a priority customer to the airlines. We want the entire trip to be a good experience. Keep in mind when you are comparing prices that the cruise-line price includes your bus transfers to and from the ship.
CUSTOM AIR: can be provided at an additional cost through the cruise line as part of your cruise package. Should you require a non stop, or wish to change the flight days, in most cases you can be accommodated.
We recommend booking your own airfare if you want to arrive or depart at a different date other than the sail and return date. Flights are more readily available during non week-end days near the cruise port city because the cruise lines reserves most of the air flights for their customers during the sail dates. Thus making it difficult for those trying to use air miles or arrive at the same popular times the cruise lines have reserved for their passengers during the day the ship sails or returns to port. Flights are also less expensive during the week days.
If you are making your own air arrangements into the
Port area on the same day as the ship sails and returns:
- Flights should arrive no later than 1:00pm. You must be on the ship by 3:30pm
- Flights should depart no earlier than 1:30 pm
