Reader Colonel (Retired) Wes Weiner e-mailed me a few days ago to let me know about a few luxury cruise lines that are currently offering discounts to members of the military. Thanks for the heads-up, Wes!Top-tier cruise lines offering special rates right now include Azamara Cruises, Regent Seven Seas, SeaDream Yacht Club, and Windstar Cruises. (Cruise lines beyond the luxury category are also offering discounts: Carnival, Celebrity, Costa, Disney, Holland America, Norwegian Cruise Line, and Royal Caribbean.)
Requirements differ by cruise line but discounts are generally offered to active, reserve, and retired members of the U.S. military (and also sometimes Canadian Forces).
To stay on top of these deals, bookmark this military discounts search page at VacationstoGo.com, the travel agency these special rates are offered through.
Here's a sample of the many military discounts that are available:
- 7-night Tahiti cruise in May on Regent's Paul Gauguin for $1,575 pp (listed at $2,140 pp without the discount)
- 7-night Alaska cruise from Vancouver to Anchorage in July on Regent's Mariner for $2,450 pp (listed at $2,895 without the discount)
- 7-night Mediterranean cruise in June from Istanbul to Athens aboard Windstar's Wind Star for $900 pp (listed at $3,449 without the discount)
(Unfortunately, not all travel agents are authorized to offer these military rates so your usual agent may not be able to quote similar prices for these itineraries.)
