How our discounts work

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.

Step on board for special celebrations

Look forward to an extra special Christmas in 2026 with an all-inclusive cruise to the Canary Islands. First, experience the festive atmosphere of Lisbon, where the grand plaza, Praco do Comercio, houses a huge pine tree with thousands of lights. Explore the city’s historic streets, then look forward to celebrating Christmas Day on board Spirit of Discovery as your cruise continues to the Canary Islands. Step ashore on Boxing Day in Gran Canaria, perhaps taking a stroll along its beautiful beaches.

Continue to scenic La Palma and Tenerife, with its 16th-century plazas, and call at Lanzarote, where whitewashed cottages and a 17th-century church are set around a coastal lagoon in the capital Arrecife. Enjoy New Year celebrations on board during an overnight visit to Madeira and its capital city Funchal. Then return via the Spanish port of Vigo, gateway to UNESCO-listed Santiago de Compostela.
