Cruise Deal: Royal Caribbean Rolls Out the Final 3-Day WOW Sale of 2012

For bargain hunters and anyone who wants to get an early start to their holiday shopping, Royal Caribbean has announced that its final WOW Sale of the year will start on Monday and run for three days: Oct 15, 16, and 17, 2012. For all new individual bookings made for a 2013-14 Royal Caribbean sailing, you can receive $50 onboard credit per stateroom on 3- to 5-night itineraries; $100 per stateroom for 6- to 9-night itineraries; and $200 per stateroom for 10-night itineraries or longer. You can apply your onboard credit toward a shore excursion or spa session, or celebrate a special occasion during the cruise with a specialty dining experience. While the announcement doesn't specifically say so, we assume that the credit would apply to other onboard purchases as well. You can also enjoy 50 percent reduced deposits during the 3-day WOW Sale to lock in your 2013-14 Royal Caribbean cruise vacation anywhere around the world.

The WOW Sale onboard credit and 50 percent reduced deposit offers are applicable to all Royal Caribbean Intl cruises that sail on or after Jan 1, 2013 including cruisetours. Offer is available only in the U.S. and Canada and applies to new individual bookings with required deposit only and is not applicable to groups. Offer applies to all categories available. All bookings must be made and the required deposit must be paid by Oct 17, 2012, by 11:59 pm local time to qualify for the promotion. Onboard credit is in U.S. dollars, has no cash value, is not redeemable for cash, is not transferable and will expire if not used by 10:00 pm on the last evening of the cruise.
