Our take

Windstar Cruises (☆ ☆ ☆ ☆ ½) is one of the premier upper-premium cruise lines — and one of our favorites. If you'd enjoy small-ship yacht cruising to out-of-the-way ports, at prices you won't find on a luxury ship, this is a great option. 

Bonus Credit

By booking with Cruiseable, we'll provide an additional Bonus Credit of $150 per stateroom, the equivalent of spending money on board. Call us at 1-877-322-3773.

Star Clippers, operators of three classic tall ships, has launched a Grand Voyages program to make it easier for guests to fly to Europe for sailings in Portugal, Italy, Greece, Spain and Croatia aboard Royal Clipper or France, Spain, Morocco aboard Star Flyer. Rates for the air and cruise fare start at $3,430 US per person, a 35% discount off the brochure rate, for these three specific sailings of 12, 14 and 17 nights in August and October 2016 (see below). 

Cruiseable's take

Many travelers are still unfamiliar with the astonishingly beautiful masted ships from Star Clippers. If you've been thinking of taking a different kind of vacation — on a cruise ship that's an entirely different than the big mass market ships, but still at an affordable price — and you've been longing to see coastal Europe, this is a good choice.  

Bonus

By booking with Cruiseable, we'll provide an additional $200 to $400 onboard credit (the equivalent of spending money) depending on your choice of cabin. Note: This credit is available only through Cruiseable and is not available if you call the cruise line directly or use a different travel agency.

Well, here’s a clever promotion for anglers out there who may be taking an Alaska cruise on Princess Cruises this summer: The cruise line is offering to cook whatever you catch.

When I saw the promotion, it brought back a fond memory of a charming Italian captain named Potenzoni, who was master of the long-departed Fairsky cruise ship from the now defunct Sitmar Cruises, which was acquired by Princess. The captain loved to fish in port and would have his chefs prepare what he caught during Mexican Riviera cruises.

The latest deals from Holland America Line, which just came across our desk, will make any seafarer jump for joy and want to hop on board. The semi-premium cruise provider has a couple of nice promotions going for anyone who books a select 2016 and 2017 cruise by Feb. 29, 2016.

Plus, HAL is tossing in an opportunity for guests to receive two free shore excursions on cruises calling at select ports in Asia, Australia, New Zealand and South America.
