According to a travel expert, Brits looking to take a cruise trip in 2024 should be tactful when booking to get the best deals. With the arrival of the latest ship models this year, cruise holidays in 2024 are expected to be particularly attractive.

Travel expert Yasim Pekel of Blue Cruise says that for those looking for bargains on cruises next year, it is important to choose specific time slots when booking to maximize benefits with minimal effort. The Mirror writes more about this.

Don't miss the chance to book a cruise in advance, travel expert advises. She argues that keeping an eye out for cruise line bookings or sales is the key to getting the best deals. Don't worry if you missed the first stage: discounts sometimes reach 50% or more even for late bookings.

She recommends subscribing to fare alerts on cruise websites or to the cruise line's newsletter. Knowing about all the promotions, you can save 10-20% of the original price!

"Join cruise line loyalty programmes. Frequent cruisers can enjoy various privileges, including discounts and onboard credit. Although savings in the form of onboard credits, discounts, and priority benefits may vary, they can reach several hundred pounds or more," the cruise expert advises.

Grace Sandwith, Commercial Director of Iglu Cruise, joins the ranks of experts who share their valuable advice for Brits on cruise adventures. She also recommends booking tickets in advance to ensure you get the best choice and the assurance of availability.

The launch of new itineraries is often accompanied by great deals and early booking incentives, so determined travellers who know what they want get the seats they want early.
