Crystal Cruises
For guests looking to head out on Crystal's latest Crystal River Cruises and Crystal Yacht Expedition Cruises brands, early booking savings are to be had on all of their 2018 voyages on reservations made by March 31, 2017: up to $2,000 per suite on the yacht and up to $1,000 per suite on the riverboats.
All-inclusive 2018 Crystal Yacht Expedition Cruises fares start at $4,750 per guest and Crystal River Cruises fares at $2,975 per guest.
"The value of this savings proposition is tremendous when you consider the breadth of luxury amenities and experiences included in the already value-packed Crystal Experience" says Edie Rodriguez, Crystal's chairman, CEO and president in a statement. "It's a wonderful opportunity for travelers to relish the latest experiences within the Crystal portfolio, with savings offered for even brand new vessels and itineraries."
Fred. Olsen Cruises
Fred. Olsen Cruises is also offering its "Turn of Year" promotion extending four voyage deals applied to select 2017/18 itineraries. Good until March 1, 2017 are complimentary upgrades to an all-inclusive drinks package and no single supplements; and good until January 31, 2017, are free shoreside spending credits (up to 125 Euros worth) and free door-to-door transfers.
Plus, the brand is presenting an Enjoyment Promise guarantee such that if a passenger feels the sailing is not for them within 48 hours of embarkation, the cruise line will refund their voyage fare and pay to get them back home.
