What affects the price

When you start looking at cruise prices, keep in mind that the total depends on a few moving parts. The cabin category is the biggest factor; choosing a suite or a balcony room will always cost more than an interior stateroom. Timing is just as important, as sailing during school holidays or peak vacation weeks usually increases the fare. Plus, you have to consider whether you want an all-inclusive package that covers drinks and Wi-Fi, or if you prefer to pay for those as you go. We can get you the exact pricing confirmed free on the call.

Frequently asked in Chicago

What is the cheapest month to cruise from Chicago?

While Chicago itself isn't a major cruise port for international voyages, if you're looking at cruises departing from nearby ports like those in the Great Lakes or planning a trip from Florida that you'd book from Chicago, the cheapest months are generally September, October, and January through March. These periods avoid peak holiday travel and summer vacations, leading to lower fares.

What are the top 5 Norwegian cruises?

The top Norwegian cruises often include popular itineraries to the Caribbean, the Bahamas, and Mexico from Florida ports. European itineraries, particularly to the Mediterranean and Northern Europe, are also highly rated. For those looking for longer adventures, Alaska and Hawaii sailings are consistently in demand. The 'top 5' can depend on current promotions and seasonal popularity.

Is $2000 enough for a Norwegian cruise?

This would likely cover the cruise fare and some onboard incidentals. For couples or longer, more exotic itineraries, you'll likely need a larger budget to comfortably enjoy the experience.

What is the most affordable Norwegian cruise line?

Norwegian Cruise Line is recognized for offering a good balance of value and amenities, making it a solid choice for affordable cruising. To find the most budget-friendly options, focus on sailings during the shoulder seasons and consider different stateroom categories. They provide a comprehensive onboard experience at competitive price points.

What is the cheapest month to go on a Norwegian cruise?

The cheapest months for Norwegian cruises are typically September and October, following the summer holidays and before the winter break. January and February also offer good deals, though itineraries may be more limited or focused on warmer climates. Booking during these times can yield significant savings on your cruise fare.

Can you take a Norwegian cruise from the Great Lakes?

Norwegian Cruise Line does not currently offer itineraries departing directly from the Great Lakes. Their primary departure ports are located on the coasts of North America, the Caribbean, and Europe. For cruises from the Great Lakes region, you would typically look at smaller cruise lines or book voyages departing from other major ports and travel to them.
