41 Hidden Cruise Deals Only Seasoned Travelers Know About

17. Leveraging the Onboard Future Cruise Desk

Already enjoying your cruise? Think about booking your next one before you disembark! Cruise lines heavily incentivize booking onboard through their Future Cruise Consultant or loyalty desk. They often offer exclusive perks like reduced deposits, significant onboard credit for the future sailing, potential cabin upgrades, or other bonuses unavailable once you're back on land. Even if you're unsure of exact dates, you can often book an open-ended "Future Cruise Credit" with these benefits, locking in savings for later travel.
