Q: Would it be cheaper to book a cruise through a travel agent or through the actual cruise line?
A: Though you could certainly book directly through the cruise line, there are a number of benefits to booking through a travel agent, especially if you haven't been on a cruise before. Even though travel agents are growing ever-more obsolete for most types of travel booking, cruise-specific travel agents can save you money, as they often have access to unpublished fares or sales. They are also more likely to be able to get you upgrades or other perks. And, they can help you choose the right cruise line, cruise itinerary, and cabin type to meet your needs (and budget).
