Suez Canal Transits
These are some of the most epic voyages in the industry. They are seasonal, only operating when the ships have to reposition to or from the Med, as such they only operate within two tight windows. From the Med down to Dubai and onto Asia and South Pacific from very late Sept to early November.
Like migratory birds, they follow the sun and fly north again only in very late March from Australia through until the end of April when they must be in position for their summer deployment.
As most people who book cruises tend to only look at those that start and end in the same port, or close by, these repo ones tend to be overlooked and hence we oftentimes will get some of the best deals in the industry.
By being prepared to travel at the last minute, within 3/4 months of departure, we should be able to secure you discounts of up to 80-90% off 6-star cruises.
Cruises almost always either start or end in Dubai, and the other two points in the Med will usually be Athens, Istanbul or sometimes Venice or Rome.

A note about pricing.
Our prices, like most online retailers, including VTG, are not live, only indicative.
We do everything possible to ensure pricing is accurate when they are uploaded every Sunday.
However, pricing in the cruise industry is no different from airfares. Prices can go up and down based on availability and can change, or indeed sell out, in the time it takes you to refresh your screen.
When you request a quote we have to get into the reservation system of the cruise line and verify current-day pricing, which can be different from prices on our website. Pricing in the industry is all communicated electronically and this can lead to corrupted data and errors which we may not pick up until we ask for a specific quote.
Until we place a firm hold on a cabin, prices can never be guaranteed. Failure to pay deposits by the set deadlines will void any quoted prices.
