On all cruises we set aside a number of cabins within each level at a discounted fare, with the highest discount of 35% for ocean cruises and 25% for river cruises available on selected levels. These cabins are sold on a first come, first served basis. As cabins are sold, the discount begins to reduce, and continues to reduce until those selected cabins are sold.
This means that the earlier you book, the higher the chance of securing a greater discount. Our price panels clearly show the full cruise price, along with the current discount fare.
Please note: During busy periods for holiday bookings, the early booking discount can reduce rapidly. We recommend that you book early to benefit from the best booking discounts and to secure your preferred cabin.
When promoting new cruises for the first time, we contact customers on our Advanced Registration list first, allowing then to secure the cabin of their choice and benefit from the best savings. Our brochures are then sent out to loyalty club members first, followed by past cruise goers and then everyone else.

Explore the Fortunate Isles
The four most popular Canary Islands are revealed on this all-inclusive cruise in 2026. Start with an overnight visit to Madeira – the perfect opportunity to enjoy the evening atmosphere of Funchal and appreciate the clear starry nights the region is known for. Continue towards the coast of Africa to step ashore in La Palma, whose rugged landscape is dotted with volcanoes and the pine forests of Taburiente National Park.
In the Spanish archipelago’s largest island, Tenerife, gaze in awe at the vast World Heritage Site Mount Teide. Further unusual volcanic terrain can be seen in the Bandama Crater of Gran Canaria and Lanzarote’s crater-studded Timanfaya National Park. Following your scenic Canary Island adventure, cruise to Portugal and enjoy the wealth of historic landmarks, from the Castle of Sao Jorge to the Terreiro do Paco square.

La Palma is the greenest of the Canaries and large tracts of its laurel forests have been declared a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve. The capital, Santa Cruz, is set in a sweeping natural amphitheatre and was a hub for New World explorers and merchant traders during the Age of Exploration. Its history is reflected in the 16th-century Castilian architecture and the old quarter with its wooden balconies and cobbled lanes is set around the Renaissance Plaza Espana.

Named in Spanish after the reef that edges its shoreline, peaceful Arrecife has been the island’s capital since it took the title from nearby Teguise in 1852.
