It is raining cruise deals.

We have already commented today on how many cruise deals there are out there at the moment but this is one of the best of the year so far. It is onboard Cunard cruise line the Queen Mary 2.

The largest ocean liner in the world has launched a promotion for best grade of cabin of time at booking (excluding suites) on the 19th July. On this day you can buy a balcony at only £400 per person. Yes that is less than £60 per day for all your food and entertainment. Yes you need to add a one way flight back from New York but this is in our opinion is deal of the month.

You can if you require extend your stay in New York. Hotels for this time of year start at around £75 per person per night for a reasonable 3* centrally located room in Manhattan.

The above deal is one of many coming from Cunard Cruises but with the Indian summer, world cup and Wimbledon all the cruise lines seem to be in the same boat(Pardon the pun.)

Oops we did it again.

Yes, England as usual have fallen by the wayside and let the whole nation down and failed to do well in the world cup. The old excuses have been trotted out, the players were tired, the altitude hurt them, the ball crossed the line etc. However it did not stop them being beaten by the Germans.  We can hang our heads in shame but were we really expecting anything different

There is good news though. It is now the time to book some amazing last minute cruise deals. Due to the world cup there are still some amazing last minute bargains out there for even July and August. This is near enough un heard of in recent years. One of the cruise lines with some of the best prices are P&O cruises. On certain cruises they have slashed prices with savings of up to 40% off. There cruises during summer months are no fly cruises and involve cruising from Southampton. There is a whole raft of itineraries and durations and there are still some 3 and 4 birth cabins left if you have a family

So don’t be too despondent as we are out, go and book yourself an amazing cruise deal.
