5 Reasons to Plan
Your Holiday Vacation Now
The holidays are right around the corner, and now's the time to think ahead about where you would like to spend them! There are many reasons why celebrating the holidays with a vacation is a great gift, and your Cruise Planners Travel Advisor can arrange a trip that can both honor yearly traditions and help you start new ones! Here are some fantastic reasons to spend this holiday season on vacation:
Experience the Holidays at Sea
Instead of snuggling up by the fireplace this winter, climb aboard one of Carnival Cruise Line's Christmas-themed cruises, where you can participate in festive activities such as the ugly sweater contest, lighting the tree and singing carols. Royal Caribbean can help you ring in the New Year with the biggest New Year's Eve celebration at sea, including a balloon drop, champagne toast and party favors.
Cost-Effective
Holidays don't have to come with a large price tag. Early planning is key to locking in the best rate, whether it's for a cruise, hotel or excursion. Cruise Planners' relationships with partners such as Travel Impressions ensure an amazing array of travel optionsfrom budget-friendly all-inclusive resorts to ultra-luxury and romantic accommodations.
More Availability
Booking early comes with perks! Top travel destinations will likely have more availability the earlier you book, and you may receive early booking perks such as onboard credits, reduced deposits, free upgrades and more. You also benefit by locking in prime time tours and activities ahead of the booking surge.
Less Stress
Everyone looks forward to the holiday season, but let's face it...the holidays can come with a good bit of stress and a LOT of preparation—cooking, cleaning, chauffeuring, buying gifts, endless cleanup—you name it. Relying on your Cruise Planners Travel Advisor will eliminate so much stress by taking care of all the details.
Create New Traditions
Time-honored traditions are great, but this year, why not create new memories! Start a new holiday tradition by traveling to a destination on your bucket list, or go on a large family trip. Instead of slaving over Thanksgiving dinner this year, why not set sail with Norwegian Cruise Line and let their chefs worry about the turkey? Their Thanksgiving-inspired menus are sure to please every palate, and include all of your favorite side dishes. Another festive option would be to hop on one of American Queen Steamboat's Autumn Colors sailings to explore the beautiful Fall foliage on a river cruise.
So, if you are thinking about a vacation this holiday season, give your Cruise Planners Travel Expert a jingle. There are so many options for a trip that will give you the best gift of all—the gift of travel with memories to last a lifetime.
