    THe deals keep coming.

    OK this is later in the year also EX UK southampton and does not go into the warmer waters.

    THe ship is the Constellation and it has an idoor thalasotherapy pool which is great

    These Celebrity Wine cruises were quite good value at around £650-£800 for 12 nights but now you get a balcony for that with a double upgrade.

    Hi all

    looking for a 14 night AI cruise and stay for 2 in the med for end of June/beginning of July. Would prefer an adults only, but am flexible. Budget will be about £1100 pp.

    I have no experience whatsover of this sort of holiday, and so don't know where to start looking - what are the best websites etc, and is this budget reasonable? Not bothered about inside/outside cabin, unless I can get a deal with a balcony room.

    Any pointers?

    Thanks for your time,

    Olias

    AI on a ship will limit your choices. do you really need the booze AI, all ships are mostly inclusive except for the booze.

    Thomson is the best choice for cruise stay AI packages.

    Get the brochure and see if they have what you want.

    Would you look at something else say a cruise/city stay or a longer cruise without the AI stay.

    £1100pp will get you a very good cruise. Your timescale also means that you can start looking at late deals. Only fly in the ointment will be the cost of flight. Try costing up the flights yourself, and then compare what the agancies/crusielines will charge.

    Google is your friend. Search out Cruise deals and go through all the agencies e.g. iglu, cruise.co.uk, cruise1st.co.uk ..the list is endless.

    For forums try cruisecritic.com

    I wouldnt' bother looking for AI with alcohol. I don't think manyof the cruise lines do this
