Thinking of a cruise to the Mediterranean? Now's the time to book a voyage to the Med for summer 2020 — and why not make it on board a classic sailing vessel? Plus, now you can get 65% off the brochure rate. 

Choose a voyage on Royal Clipper or Star Flyer and receive a choice of options from massages to prepaid gratuities, onboard credits or cabin upgrades. So choose your destination and desired perk and book your dream Mediterranean holiday today!

The Mediterranean is full of enticing reasons to visit for anyone looking for adventure, for warm coastal beaches or historic sites. Vibrant ports of call with their own colorful personalities, cultured ambience and an incredible Old World charm are only a few of the allures of the Med.

Explore enchanting ports in Spain, France and Italy, or perhaps journey to popular Croatia or the fascinating Greek Isles on a Star Clippers ship. 

If you're like this traveler, you may be tempted more by cruises to the Caribbean than to cold weather climes. I have made an exception in the past for Alaska. But now there's another incentive for buying that extra sweater.

The luxury cruise line Silversea has just added some great perks for passengers who book an expedition voyage to the Arctic or Antarctica. All passengers can take advantage of these new incentives:

• One-night, pre-cruise hotel stay
• In-country flight(s) when required by the itinerary
• Polar expedition cruise with guided shore experiences and Zodiac excursions
• Polar parka
• One post-cruise day-use hotel
• Transfers and luggage handling between airport, hotel and ship.

Ready for a cruise with some heft to it? Luxury cruise line Silversea has just debuted a new collection of Grand Voyages for late 2020 and 2021 that includes several exceptional expedition cruise options for a cruise of a lifetime.

Designed for travelers who prefer an immersive luxury travel experience, Silversea’s Grand Voyages offer extended journeys of up to 70 days, with multiple overnight stays, a range of exclusive events and many life-defining experiences.

Sail around Australia for 51 days, cross the Arctic Circle and the ancient monuments of Egypt on a 64-day voyage, or step foot onto the frozen continent of Antarctica and swim in the tropical waters of Bora Bora on the same 52-day voyage. Each journey will unlock amazing experiences, events and destinations, and deliver them to guests in superlative comfort.

Royal Caribbean is offering a new deal: Book a stateroom and enjoy 50% savings on your fare for the second guest — and Kids Sail Free. Plus, enjoy an onboard credit bonus of up to $300 to spend at sea. 

There’s an endless world of adventure for you to discover on Royal Caribbean . Explore underwater gardens made of coral, roam secluded jungle trails and hang ten high above the waves. Experience more onboard activities, dining venues and entertainment options with the cruise line voted Best Overall 16 years running.

Did you know that Princess Cruises has a special program that provides savings to active and retired members of the military on any cruise at any time of the year?

More than any other cruise line, Princess Cruises is known for its work with members of the military, and no other cruise line offers benefits like this to our vets!

Cruiseable has a travel agency partnership in place with Princess so that we can pass along these benefits to you — and often we can offer lower fares and additional benefits not available to those who book directly with the cruise line.

Here are the onboard credits — the equivalent of spending money — available for any Princess cruise any time of year:

• $250 per qualifying individual taking a cruise that's 14 days or longer
• $100 per qualifying individual taking a cruise 7 to 13 days in length
• $50 per qualifying individual taking a cruise 6 days or less

Tempted to take a luxury cruise but not sure where to start — and whether you can afford it? Consider taking the 7-Day Classic Yachtsman's Caribbean voyage aboard the sublime luxury cruise ship Seabourn Odyssey.

You can now book a comfortable Veranda suite on board for $2,299 per person (based on double occupancy).

Scenic, one of the world's top river cruise lines, has a special offer on its 8-day "Treasures of the Rhine" river cruise. 

Save $3,000 per couple. Now you can cruise from Nuremberg, Germany, to Amsterdam in the Netherlands for $1,695 per person (based on double occupancy). Sailing dates: Oct. 7-14, 2019.
