Well finally the travel consumer voices are being heard, at least by the cruise lines. They, like the airlines needed to charge fuel surcharges for voyages priced pre-gas hikes. Now that we are all paying less at the gas tank, most of the cruise lines have rescinded their fuel surcharges. That's money back in your pocket.
In some cases for a 7 night cruise that can mean about $60.00 per person. Even if you have paid in full for your cruise, call your travel agent or the cruise line if you booked directly, and ask about the cruise lines' policy. For those who have paid in full, many of the cruise lines will be giving you a shipboard credit in the amount of the fuel surcharge. You can use this to pay for any incidentals while on board. For those who are still under deposit, your final payment will most likely reflect the reduced rate.
There is a lot of great news coming from the cruise lines. A few new ships coming, new cruise ports and great deals, like airfare included to Europe. Stay tuned and check back. I will have more to come with those offers!
As always, happy travels!
