Hey all,
Not new to the dis but I am to this area, have booked an 8 night trip for DH and I for Sept next year and hoping to tag the 3 night Halloween Bahamas cruise on to the end as a little treat!
Neither of us have cruised before so figured this would be a good start?
Hoping you guys can help me with a couple of questions before I book?
1) Pricing - am I best to book now or wait? Sept 2020 is out and prices seem cheapest when compared against the same itinerary for the dates I am looking at? (It’s about £1360 for 2 adults in a cat 9D at the minute)
2) is it best to book direct with DCL or go through an agent?
3) The price difference between a ocean view and a veranda is quite a difference! Is it worth the cost for a veranda on a 3 night? I’m struggling to justify the increase of £150-200 for a 3 night cruise when I doubt we would use it?
I’m hoping this cruise will be a nice intro to cruising for us, and if for some reason we hate it - it’s only 3 days!
Thank you all so much in advance!
