    Hi, just booking a P&O cruise for Caribbean 2012, and Bolsover Cruise Club have beaten Co-op Travel by £30, but credit to Co-Op Travel as they beat Gills by £80! ;) Its definitely worth shopping around! Happy cruising:beer:

    Yes, it's interesting when you shop around, for me, Bolsolver were £33 more expensive than Co-op and only offering £200 on board credit.

    To be honest the person at Bolsolver sounded so uninterested that I would have been reluctant to book with them even if they had been cheapest (she didn't even ask if I had a cheaper quote, which I had from Scotland Cruise Company) - it would have been a really easy booking for them because I already decided exactly what I needed

    Cruise.co.uk were way off at nearly £400 over my cheapest quote!!!

    As always with cruises it pays to shop around. I've just taken another look at them having not had any success finding a good price there in the past for cruises I was interested in.

    They haven't got the cruise we've been looking at but they do have the same ship and same itinerary a month earlier. The only other difference is that they're offering flights, to Venice, bundled in the price.

    The best price I've seen elsewhere, and it was a time-limited special offer, was a touch over $1000. Cruise.co.uk want £1900, about $2900. Maybe it's a private jet that's included? ;)
