A number of small ship cruise lines have kicked off 2020 with some great offers that bring bonus value.

Ocean Cruising

Now through February 28, Windstar Cruises has a Pick Your Perk deal that includes:

• $1,000 onboard credit
• Up to $300 airfare credit
• Unlimited WiFi

Guests booking a Premium Suite have one more perk option: Windstar’s popular All-In Package, which includes unlimited Wi-Fi access, unlimited laundry service, hotel and beverage gratuities, and the Captain’s Exclusive Beverage Package featuring all wines by the glass, all beer selections, all mini-bar beverages, and a broad assortment of cocktails.

Windstar guests also receive complimentary wine (up to two bottles per cabin), bonus savings on the longer Star Collector Voyages, reduced rates for solo travelers and reduced deposits from $50 per guest.  

 Azamara travelers can save up to 40% off 125 sailings starting April 14, 2020 through November 21, 2021. Azamara Journey, Azamara Quest and Azamara Pursuit all have participating voyages.

In alignment with the brand’s commitment to Destination Immersion with more late-night stays and  overnights in different ports, Azamara guests can immerse themselves into local culture with shore excursions ranging from an exploration into the world of Basque cuisine with a traditional “pintxo” cooking class in Bilbao, Spain, to participating in a percussion workshop with the local community in Salvador de Bahia, Brazil.

For guests looking to spend even more time in a destination, and bookable with all sailings as an additional cost, Azamara’s newly expanded pre- and post-voyage land voyages provide experiences that range from a five-night exploration into Ireland’s countryside castles to a four-day adventure journeying into Iguazu Falls on the border of Argentina and Brazil.
