Price of cruises in January
Hi,
I can see that cruises for this fall is getting very cheap close to the departure date. I've also seen this trend in march/april as well. My question is: How likely is it that the same thing happens in January? I have to order the plane tickets now, so I'm taking quite a risk if I'm waiting and the cruise gets sold out.
The cruise in question is this:

If you need/want a certain cabin class, you may be limiting your options if you wait a month. You can check the current cabin availability through cruise fish or sea scanner and estimate the risk. US bookings usually allow for repricing prior to final payment but sometimes perks will change & you may not be able to apply same perks to a lower price.
There are other sailings from Miami around that time if you are fine with any of sailings departing from Miami or Ft. Lauderdale.
