Capture mega savings on vacations at sea during the fall seasonal cruise ship migration


At certain times throughout the year the ships of many major cruise lines crisscross the globe on their way to new port and distant seas. In the industry this is termed a “repositioning” cruise and they offer unique frequently special one of a kind itineraries. Generally the voyages are 7 days or longer offering incredible savings. But occasionally you can catch a shorter one voyage. This fall NCL’s Norwegian Pearl has a 4 day departure on September 24th that sails from Vancouver Canada to Los Angeles CA via San Francisco. Based on availability you can snag an inside cabin one without a view for a low as $50.00 per person per day! Special deals are also offered on staterooms with a window and balconies too!

Just wait until you see everything Norwegian Cruise Lines has put on board their luxurious new Norwegian Pearl. Sister ship to the wildly popular Norwegian Jewel, she’s built to impress with 10 different restaurants, 14 bars & lounges, three swimming pools, the exclusive new Courtyard Villas and the very first bowling alley to hit the high seas.

I priced air out of Columbus into Seattle and departing from Los Angeles and it was in the $250.00-$300.00 range based on travel dates. Add your airport to pier transfers & a few pre and post cruise hotel stays and you’ve built a nice getaway.
