The details

Norwegian — considered one of the Big Three cruise lines alongside Carnival and Royal Caribbean — is expanding its offerings, allowing people to book cruises through summer 2024 with what it called the most itineraries in Norwegian's history.

Holland America Line has announced the kickoff of its Kids Cruise Free promotion, just in time for families to plan their end-of-year holiday getaways. The offer entitles kids ages 5 to 7 who are sailing as the third and fourth guests in the same stateroom to cruise for free.

If your family would prefer the warm waters of Mexico or the Caribbean to a chilly winter break spent a home, you’ll need to book by Nov. 18 to take advantage of this special offer. The promotion is good on select holiday sailings and other cruises scheduled through May 31, 2022, excluding Alaska cruise tours and Grand World Voyages. It’s also limited to two children sailing for free per eligible booking.

The Offer
