Last Minute Cruise?

What's the best (cheapest-Caribbean Eastern) Last Minute Cruise website? CruiseQuick.com? :)

You turned me on to them, i heard other talk about them, and have since booked my own cruises as well as three separate trips for friends thru them.

However, although they are usually the cheapest i can find, it states directly on thier website that they're not always the cheapest, and i would still shop around as much as i could.

I also check RCCL's Happy Hour Specials which come out on Tuesday and must be booked that same day... can often get some great prices for sailings within the following 2 months.

There are still stories about people showing up at the pier on the day of depature and getting an otherwise vacant room for $100 (for the entire cruise) but with the tighter security and the manifest needing to be submitted to the proper agencies 72 hours before sailing... i think deals such as those are long gone.

WOW! Thanks Thereuare! I can always count on you for excellent info. I will check out the RCCL's Happy Hour Specials tomorrow. :)

I have been trying to find information on bidding for cruises or going through sites declared that they have the best cruise deals for a Baja Mexico cruise. Any comments or suggestions?

The cruiselines used to allow agencies to discount cruise rates by giving back some of their commission, but this is no longer allowed, so my guess is that you're finding all agencies to offer the same exact rates.

I use Expedia to research cruises.
