Princess Cruises’ Thanksgiving Sale Offers Cruise Deals

If you’ve finished your holiday shopping...congratulations! If, like me, you haven’t even started and are dreading the crowds at the mall, take heart. Princess Cruises has a solution to our shopping woes—the opportunity to plan a post-holiday cruise with a special Thanksgiving Sale. Running from Nov 21-26, these cruise deals offer discounts of up to $1,000 plus up to $100 cash back as an onboard credit. And, best of all, we don’t even have to leave home to get in on the bargains.

More than 200 sailings are on sale, including some of the line’s most popular cruise destinations. Travelers can cruise to the majestic scenery of Alaska, the fun in the sun of the Caribbean, the tropical paradise of Hawaii, and even the marvel of engineering that is the Panama Canal.

In addition to special fares, passengers booking balcony staterooms or above will receive an onboard credit of $50 (cruises up to nine days) or $100 (for sailings 10 days or longer), and those booking interior or oceanview staterooms can get credits of $25 (cruises up to nine days) to $50 (cruises 10 days or longer).

Examples of the special cruise deals include:

Caribbean cruise — 7 days: $769 balcony (was $1,269); $569 interior (was $819)
