Crystal Cruise Deal

Serenity is larger and newer of the cruise liners, bearing 1,070 passengers while her smaller sister carries 922. Both ships have the all-inclusive ‘As You Wish’ promotion running which offers either $2,000 or $1,000 (depending on ship and cruise) shipboard spending credits to spend on board. The credits can be used against wine with dinner, booking a special Vintage Room evening, spa treatments, items from the boutiques on ship or an excursion, pretty well whatever you fancy. There are also some discounts being offered on remaining 2010 cruises.

Cruises booked in dollars are not the cheapest for European travellers at present, but a substantial shipboard credit like this one can easily make the difference in getting a bargain if you’re the kind of person who likes to enjoy all that a luxury cruise ship has to offer.
