As for your other comment I’m not sure exactly what you are getting at. I don’t have the time or interest to research every cruise line and vet whether they actually get their published fares or not. I am absolutely sure Silversea is not going to discount a $16,000/person cabin for $3,500.
I see SIlversea doesn't quote prices online, or in their brochure, so I can't verify. I look at within final payment window cruises so maybe the (luxury) cruisecos are dumping cheap.

One cruise I would even think of booking is the 5 Sept Silver Muse TPAC from Alaska to Japan. "From $4,950" on SS site, $3,700 on VTG site.
