Additional Bonus for Black Friday and Cyber Monday: Deposits Reduced to $300/guest
MIAMI, FL (November 11, 2024) – Windstar Cruises, a leader in small ship luxury cruising, has announced the return of its popular “Pick Your Perk” offer, now available throughout the festive season (including Black Friday/Cyber Monday) as well as the cruise industry’s deal-centric wave season in early 2025.
Available for booking now through March 31, 2025, on sailings through June of 2026, “Pick Your Perk” options include: one free hotel night (which can be used pre- or post-cruise) OR up to $1,000 Onboard Credit, which can be used for Windstar’s award-winning shore excursions and adventures, spa services, or even special celebratory cocktails. Premium suite guests are afforded a third option – an upgrade to the All-Inclusive Fare ($99/day value) which includes unlimited alcohol, Wi-Fi, and all gratuities.
Travel Advisors can add extra value for their clients by booking early (and notably within the Black Friday/Cyber Monday window) to take advantage of reduced deposits of just $300 per guest from November 18 – December 2, 2024.
Travelers can enjoy these exceptional savings and the flexibility of choosing their preferred perk on a wide selection of the cruise line’s most popular sailings including itineraries to Europe which are available year-round; French Polynesia where Windstar has sailed for more than 36 years; Latin America, which includes bucket-list destinations such as the Panama Canal and a South America cruise with options to visit Galapagos and Machu Picchu; the Caribbean where travelers can enjoy Windstar’s access to exclusive harbors and water sports platform; and even Windstar’s new ship Star Seeker in the Caribbean and Alaska.
“Windstar’s ‘Pick Your Perk’ offer is one of our most popular promotions featuring significant, personalized savings,” shared Windstar’s Chief Commercial Officer Janet Bava. “These next few weeks, families will gather for the holidays and plan their vacation, so we have made available our best and most attractive offer to help travel advisors provide their clients the best opportunity for them to save before the traditional wave season. Best of all, this offer is combinable with our very attractive group offer, allowing travel advisors to maximize their earning potential on new groups being contracted during this offer period.”
