How to Get Last Minute Deals on Cruises thumbnail
If you book at the last-minute online, you can often avoid booking fees.

Pack your bags and purchase your suntanning lotion in preparation for a cruise. Preparing may be easier and less expensive than you think. Instead of planning to capture a budget-cruise package in advance, reel in last-minute cruise deals. The bad news, for your nosy neighbors, is they may never know you paid budget-cruise fare, because cruise operators don't advertise them openly. Travel agents and the Internet will work to your advantage.
