Price Hike for Hawaii Cruise in April

Here’s another reason to book your Hawaii cruise now. Norwegian Cruise Line announced today that as a result of "unprecedented year-to-date increases in bookings" they will be raising the price on the Pride of America 7% on April 2, 2010. This comes as no surprise because we have seen an increase in cruise bookings and have been discussing the possibility that prices would be going up because of the high demand. This news comes on the heels of an announcement just last week the NCL Pride of America showed a profit of the $121 million last year in tough economic times.

"Our first quarter wave season promotion definitely persuaded consumers to book a Norwegian cruise vacation as we saw heavy call volumes translating to exceptional bookings," said Kevin Sheehan, Norwegian Cruise Line chief executive officer. "As we move out of wave season, consumers and travel partners can expect to see our prices rise across the fleet, especially for our new, highly anticipated ship Norwegian Epic."

If you’re even thinking about booking a Hawaii cruise remember you can put a deposit down which is 100% refundable up until 75 days before you travel. For more information just give us a call at 1-800-843-8771 and any agent can help you.
