5 Affordable Cruise Vacations to Book — Plus How to Find the Best Deals

Here's what you need to know to save money on your next cruise.

Best Affordable Cruise Lines

How to find the best cruise deals, tips for saving money while on board.

Courtesy of Norwegian Cruise Line

Cruising has become increasingly popular in recent years, and it’s easy to see why. This form of travel is incredibly convenient (read: no need to pack and unpack), and everything you need can be found right on board — ultimately taking the stress out of trip planning. Plus, with hundreds of ships at sea across dozens of lines, there’s a cruise out here for every type of traveler. Fortunately, cruising doesn’t have to cost a small fortune, and many budget-conscious travelers may opt to set sail for their next trip. Below, we’ve rounded up the best cruise lines offering affordable fares coupled with value-packed inclusions to stretch your dollar further. We’ve also tapped some expert cruise specialists to share their top tips and tricks to help you save money both on and off the ship.

Here's everything you need to know to book an affordable cruise vacation.

Virgin Voyages

Courtesy of Virgin Voyages

This adults-only cruise line from Richard Branson — which also happens to be a Travel + Leisure World’s Best Award winner — offers excellent value. In fact, according to T+L A-list cruise advisor and Q Cruise + Travel founder and president Rob Clabbers, Virgin Voyages fares “include more than on most mainstream large-ship cruise lines.” For example, he says, “Virgin fares include internet access, gratuities, all meals — there are no cover charges for its restaurants that on most other lines would be considered specialty restaurants.” Beverages like soft drinks, coffee, and tea are also included, as are snacks, mezze at the aft terrace, and group workout classes. Best of all, there are no pricey beverage packages. “Instead,” says Clabbers, cruisers — or, as Virgin calls them, sailors — can buy their own reasonably priced drinks (think: beers from $6, $10 cocktails, and wines by the glass under $11) a la carte. Additionally, with some promotions , the cruise line throws in a “ bar tab ” credit that can be used towards drinks.

Princess Cruises

Taylor McIntyre/Travel + Leisure

Another World’s Best Award winner — and WBA Hall of Fame Honoree, no less — this fan-favorite ocean line is renowned for refined ships, serene ambiance, and exceptional service. Moreover, per Clabbers, passengers can choose from “optional packages to help customize a passenger’s trip that provide savings over buying things separately.” For an extra $60 per day, consider Princess Plus, which offers perks like Wi-Fi for one device per guest, gratuities, fitness classes (two per sailing), and beverages like bottled water, specialty coffee, soft drinks, and juice. Alternatively, for $80 per day, passengers can spring on the Princess Premier package, which features the same beverages plus specialty dining (two per sailing), unlimited fitness classes, premium desserts, reserved theater seating, and Wi-Fi (four devices per guest).

Norwegian Cruise Line 

Norwegian Cruise Line is a favorite among families of all ages for its over-the-top entertainment and activities (think: go-karting, Broadway-caliber productions, and so on). “While Norwegian Cruise Line may price slightly higher than some of its competitors, you need to consider the Free at Sea package,” says travel advisor Jennifer Travis of Marvelous Mouse Travels . She goes on to describe the promotion as a “game-changer when it comes to cruising” since it includes perks like a “free open bar (up to $1,400 in savings), free specialty dining (up to $180 in savings), free Wi-Fi (up to $200 in savings), and a $50 discount on excursions.” Other Free at Sea perks include 70 percent off second guests, free third and fourth guests (on select dates), and free airfare (per the cruise line’s website: “ Pay airfare for one guest, and you'll automatically lock in roundtrip flights for two ”). Also, you can’t go wrong with the Free at Sea Plus package, which includes a wider selection of beverages, more specialty dining, unlimited Wi-Fi, and additional shore excursion credits. Before booking, be sure to check the line’s full selection of deals , which run the gamut from half-off deposits to $150 cruise credits and more.

Royal Caribbean

Courtesy of Royal Caribbean

Zip lines, water slides, surfing simulators, ice skating, rock climbing walls: Find all this and more aboard (most) Royal Caribbean ships — and, best of all, they’re complimentary! Ideal for fun- and adventure-loving travelers of all ages — read: kids and kids-at-heart alike — it’s pretty much impossible to be bored while cruising on this World’s Best Award-winning mega-ship line . Additionally, according to Travis, Royal Caribbean “offers some of the best short itineraries,” some of which clock in at under $200 per person for two-night sailings. Longer itineraries, including a seven-night Bahamas sailing aboard one of the line’s newest ships, Odyssey of the Seas , clock in at under $600 per person. The line also offers an abundance of deals , including up to $600 off sailings, 60 percent off second guests, and more.

Carnival Cruise Line 

Courtesy of Carnival Cruises

“ Carnival Cruise Line is known for its competitive pricing without cutting back on the onboard activities or various dining options, thus making them an attractive option to budget-conscious cruisers,” explains Travis. For example, many itineraries, including a four-night Bahamas cruise from Miami , clock in at just over $150 per person. Additionally, says the travel advisor, “Carnival sails to a wide variety of destinations from so many local ports that you almost do not need to fly to your cruise ship anymore, which is another huge savings given the cost (and stress) flights can add to any vacation.” Keep an eye out for frequent flash sales for even more savings.

Booking early is an easy way to save on your next cruise vacation . “Typically,” says Travis, “the best pricing on a cruise is when the schedule is first released.” And, while you could wait for a last-minute deal, “you may not get the room category that you want.” Similarly, Clabbers says that flexibility is key when it comes to finding — and scoring — the best cruise deals . For example, he previously told T+L that if you are “very flexible and are looking for a standard room on a large ship on an itinerary that repeats week after week, you are more likely to find a promotional fare.”

Conversely, giving up some of that flexibility sometimes pays off. According to Clabbers, select cruise lines will offer lower fares to those who opt for a nonrefundable deposit instead of a refundable one. Finally, you may also consider cruising in shoulder season or even low season. Sure, the weather won’t be perfect, but the fewer crowds and cheaper fares more than make up for that, especially if you’re on a budget.

While your tab can quickly rack up once on board, there are several savvy ways to save money. For one, consider bringing your own booze. According to Travis, “Many cruise lines allow their guests to bring a specific amount of alcohol or nonalcoholic beverages onboard the ships, which can help save you money while you are on the ship.” Additionally, ​​Michele Benard , another travel advisor at Marvelous Mouse Travels, advises packing your own necessities from home — like Advil, Tums,  motion sickness medicine, and after-sun lotion — as opposed to buying them on board at a much higher price. You’ll also want to skip the souvenirs at the onboard gift shop, which tend to be more expensive than those you’d find in port.

Benard also recommends taking advantage of “all the free activities on the cruise ships,” which can include everything from water slides to trivia game shows. Pro tip: “Stay onboard during a port day, and the lines won’t be as long.” On a similar note, spa treatments tend to be less expensive on port days, so those craving some R&R — that is, sans breaking the bank — may consider booking a service during this time.

Finally, says Clabbers, save money on your next cruise by enlisting the help of an onboard cruise consultant to select your next sailing. “You will typically receive an onboard credit or savings on your next cruise, and your own travel advisor will be alerted so they can help you plan your vacation.”

Paradise Awaits on a Cruise from Florida

Embark on a tropical cruise from Florida, a sun-soaked destination with four departure ports to choose from: Miami, Fort Lauderdale, Tampa, and Port Canaveral. Our cruises from Florida offer a wide variety of itineraries to consider, including short jaunts to the Bahamas and lengthy trips that visit multiple islands in the Caribbean. Cruises departing from Florida set sail throughout most of the year, allowing you to plan your next vacation in the winter, spring, summer, or fall.

Escape the winter chill and head off to an Eastern Caribbean cruise from Fort Lauderdale. Take advantage of a holiday weekend and book a three-night cruise from Miami that stops in Key West and the Bahamas. Explore the visionary spaces aboard Celebrity Apex, our newest ship in our fleet, during a six-night cruise around the Western Caribbean. Or unwind on the pristine beaches of Aruba, Bonaire, and Curacao during an eleven-night cruise from Tampa. There’s no shortage of heavenly destinations and cruise ships to choose from for your next Caribbean vacation.

Florida Cruise Destinations

Unwind on white sand beaches and take a dip in turquoise waters during a cruise around the islands of the Western Caribbean. Swim with stingrays in Grand Cayman.

Or spend a family day filled with fun at Costa Maya, a Mexican beach town where there’s a variety of water sports to try, including paddle boarding, fly fishing, and snorkeling.

Eastern Caribbean

Embrace a laid-back lifestyle while on a cruise through the Eastern Caribbean, where you’ll stop in vibrant beach towns and idyllic islands. Enjoy the sights and flavors of San Juan, Puerto Rico, where you can lounge on a beach with a sweet rum punch or make your way through historic forts and castles. Stroll hand in hand with your sweetheart at Magens Bay in St. Thomas, long considered to be one of the world’s most beautiful beaches. Or go on a scenic hike up a dormant volcano in St. Kitts and Nevis, where you’ll be rewarded with unrivaled views of the ocean below. 

Southern Caribbean

Discover underwater treasures and stunning natural wonders on a Southern Caribbean cruise. Marvel at the towering pitons in St. Lucia—the perfect backdrop for a vacation photo. Dive into the crystal clear waters of Bonaire and paddle your way around one of the top dive sites in the world. Visit pink flamingos in Aruba and don’t leave Curacao without sampling the island’s famous blue liqueur.

The Bahamas

On a cruise to the Bahamas, impossibly white sand and transparent aquamarine waters await. Swim and play with friendly dolphins in their natural habitat. Shop for gifts and other handmade items at Nassau’s popular Straw Market. Spend the day at the Atlantis Resort, where a sprawling water park and various pools will keep every family member entertained for hours. Or forget about all of your worries during a VIP beach day at Blue Lagoon Island, where you won’t have to lift a finger.

Depart from Fort Lauderdale, the home of one of the world’s largest cruise ports. Spend a few days before your cruise lounging on the warm beaches of Las Olas Boulevard. Take the kids out to the Museum of Science and Discovery for an afternoon of fun and learning.

Sail off on a tropical vacation from Miami, the cruise capital of the world and an exciting destination with warm weather year-round. Stroll through the colorful streets of South Beach and admire its geometric Art Deco buildings. Experience the city’s famous nightlife, where the fun doesn’t end until the sun rises. Savor the traditional Cuban cuisine of Little Havana or go on an art walk around the massive, graffiti-covered walls of Wynwood.

The convenient departure port of Tampa Bay is a fantastic city well-worth exploring before embarking on a Caribbean cruise. Make your way through the Y-Bor City district, where you can shop in one of its many cigar shops and sample craft beers at a local brewery. Stop by the Florida Aquarium, where you can pet stingrays and watch dolphins on a catamaran cruise. Or start your vacation early and head to a Gulf Coast beach and dip your toes in sugary-soft sand and crystal clear water.

Orlando (Port Canaveral), Florida

While Orlando is best known for the thrills of its spectacular theme parks, there’s much more to this arty, energetic city, which encompasses long, tree-lined avenues, serene lakes, world-class museums, and an inventive culinary scene.

Choose one of the popular 7-day Caribbean cruises, which combine two days at sea with five port stops around this heavenly region. If you’re short on vacation time, plan a four-night escape and enjoy one or two sea days with a visit to ports in Key West, Cozumel, the Bahamas, or Grand Cayman.  Or if you’re looking for a truly unforgettable trip, spoil yourself with a  ten to twelve-night island-hopping cruise, where you’ll discover one tropical paradise after another.

Oh, Florida. Family and friends from around the world are jealous that we get to live in your paradise with over 1,000 miles of coastline to explore. And here comes another sizzling summer. New resorts are opening, and we can’t wait to say “aah” to their luxury spas. What’s your passion? Go ahead and golf your heart out or snorkel in those living reefs in the Keys. Bring the kids and bring the pets: We even found puppy-friendly resort packages. Let’s embrace our Sunshine State. Here’s what’s new.

The St. Regis Longboat Key Resort

I never thought any resort could top The Breakers in Palm Beach with all its historic glamour. But now all eyes are on Sarasota as The St. Regis gets ready to open this summer. The resort is the largest development to open on Longboat Key in over 50 years. Here’s the scoop: The hotel overlooks the Gulf of Mexico and will offer 168 guest rooms, 26 suites with terraces, a private white-sand beach, multiple swimming pools and luxurious cabanas. A 475-foot-long winding river with cascading waterfalls leads into the grotto, a private sanctuary with Jacuzzi jets and Champagne service at the touch of a button. The lagoon wildlife experience boasts a 350,000-gallon habitat with nearly 50 stingrays, over 2,800 local reef fish and two Aldabra tortoises.

Meet me at The St. Regis Spa! I love the idea of a co-ed snow shower at this new wellness retreat, and I can’t wait to toast to the sunset at the iconic St. Regis Bar, with a latticed circus-esque cage surrounded by a hand-painted mural by William Savarese.

The Ritz-Carlton, Naples

The Ritz-Carlton, Naples, a AAA Five-Diamond-rated resort, was devastated when Hurricane Ian hit in 2022 but has recently unveiled a dramatic renovation. I love the Champagne upon arrival. You’ll find new and innovative dining experiences and creative designs for the resort’s 474 guest rooms and suites. The world-famous 51,000-square-foot Ritz-Carlton Spa is also back open. In March, the hotel opened its eighth eatery with the debut of Nolita, which features Italian fare and artisan pastas made in-house. Also popular is Gumbo Limbo, a casual beach restaurant beloved by visitors and locals alike, offering the perfect setting for a sunset dinner. Golfers will love the establishment’s sister resort, nestled among native wetlands and migratory bird preserves. The Ritz-Carlton Naples, Tiburón offers a sanctuary for both couples and families. The resort features a winding river, waterslides and private cabanas. Located within an Audubon Cooperative Sanctuary dedicated to protecting the environment, the Tiburón Golf Club features two legendary courses.

AC Hotel Clearwater Beach

One of the newest hotels in Clearwater Beach, the AC Hotel (a Marriott property), has designed the Paws in Paradise package. Guests receive a welcome kit that includes a branded Frisbee bowl, a pet notification door hanger for room service, puppy pads, puppy bubble bath and a list of dog-friendly cafés and restaurants in the area. I love the soft cotton puppy robe and compact doggie bed, ensuring that pups enjoy just as comfortable and cozy a stay as their human counterparts. Paws in Paradise guests will also be pampered with a nightly puppy turndown service, which may include special treats, like a bone or chew toy. An on-site dog park, equipped with a doggy bag dispenser, will be available 24/7, and water will be accessible via the hydration stations on each floor, so fresh air, fresh water and a place to release energy off-leash will always be readily available.

Wyndham Grand Clearwater Beach

The Wyndham Grand Clearwater Beach is home to the award-winning, AAA Four Diamond-rated Ocean Hai restaurant. With Asian-fusion cuisine and delicious plant-based options for vegetarians, Ocean Hai offers meals with fresh, locally sourced ingredients that are crafted to perfection by the resort’s executive sous chef, Nana Darkwah. I also love the other on-site dining options, Dock’s Pool Bar & Grill, and the lobby bar eSKPades. Plus, don’t forget to take time for a tranquil moment at the hotel’s Pallavi Spa.

Innisbrook Resort

The acclaimed Innisbrook Resort reopened its signature restaurant, Packard’s Steakhouse, after an extensive renovation that included a modernized redesign and a new menu created by David Morris, its recently appointed director of culinary. The best news? It’s open to the public!

Hawks Cay Resort

Centrally located between Miami and Key West on the secluded island of Duck Key, the Hawks Cay Resort is an ideal summer vacation destination with scuba diving adventures and leisurely sunset cruises. The Calm Waters Spa offers locally influenced spa treatments that utilize the natural ingredients and aromas of the islands. When it’s time to dine, embrace prime steak and fresh seafood at Sixty-One Prime, enjoy poolside fare at the Tiki Grill or bring your own catch for a dockside meal at Angler & Ale. Spend more time and less money when you book three nights in one of Hawks Cay Resort’s private villas and get the fourth night free.

Michelin Guide Eateries

Nine Florida restaurants earned Michelin stars when the 2024 Michelin Guide Miami, Orlando and Tampa selections were announced recently at The Tampa EDITION hotel. “Since the arrival of the Michelin Guide to Florida in 2022, there has been significant growth in the state’s local culinary scene, proving Florida is a leading gastronomic destination for travelers near and far,” said Gwendal Poullennec, the international director of the Michelin Guides.

Carnival cruise ship returns to Florida after funnel fire

TAMPA, Fla. (WFLA) — A Carnival cruise ship that caught fire over the weekend safely returned to Florida on Monday.

Video from WESH showed the Carnival Freedom bringing passengers back to Port Canaveral around 7:30 a.m.

The ship’s funnel caught fire off the coast of the Bahamas on Saturday.

“The ship’s fire response team was quickly activated, and the ship’s captain also turned the vessel towards the heavy rain in the area to maximize the efforts to put out the flames. Eyewitnesses reported the possibility of a lightning strike and that is being investigated but cannot yet be confirmed,” Carnival told WFLA in a statement on Saturday.

A portion of the funnel fell onto Deck 10. The crew asked passengers to avoid balconies and open decks for safety.

Carnival said two crew members who extinguished the fire were treated for minor smoke inhalation. No guests were injured.

The cruise line had to cancel the Freedom’s next two voyages , departing on March 25 and March 29, out of Port Canaveral.

Guests scheduled for those cruises will be issued a full refund and a future cruise credit, Carnival said.

The ship will go to the Freeport shipyard on Monday to undergo repairs.

Florida softball snaps Oklahoma's 20-game NCAA Tournament win streak, to stay alive at WCWS

Survive and live another day, that's been the mantra of Florida softball the last handful of days at the Women's College World Series.

The 4-seeded Gators carried it out once again Monday at Devon Park, positioning themselves one win away from returning to the WCWS championship series while creating some history themselves as well.

Behind Skylar Wallace's two-home run day, Kendra Falby creating two highlight reel moments and another stellar outing in the circle from freshman ace Keagan Rothrock, Florida snapped No. 2 Oklahoma's 20-win NCAA Tournament streak with a 9-3 victory.

REQUIRED READING: Florida softball vs Oklahoma live scores, updates, highlights from WCWS semifinal game

It is the first loss in the NCAA Tournament for the reigning three-time national champion Sooners since, coincidentally, the 2022 WCWS Semifinals against UCLA on June 6, 2022.

"We had nothing really to lose and came out here playing free," Wallace told ESPN's Holly Rowe after the game. "Obviously that is a really good team that we are facing, but we just got to control what we can and trust our stuff.

"We'd been working for this since August and September of that time, so all that work is paying off. But really, just playing Gators softball and playing gritty."

Wallace herself went 2-for-4 on the day with her two home runs, adding her total to career home runs hit in the WCWS to three, all of which happen to also be against Oklahoma. Falby's inside-the-park home run in the second inning was the first time since 2014 that a player hit an inside-the-parker in the WCWS.

The Gators have not been in the WCWS championship series since 2017, when they finished runner-up to Oklahoma. If Florida is able to get past college softball's goliath once again, Tim Walton's squad will be playing for their first national championship since going back-to-back in 2014 and 2015.

Florida's "if necessary"-turned-necessary game against Oklahoma will take place Tuesday due to Monday's lengthy weather delay pushing games back, as No. 1 Texas and No. 8 Stanford still have to play Monday at Devon Park in their semifinal game. The NCAA has yet to release an expected start time for Tuesday's game.
