In order to get a free cruise, you usually need to put together a group that will take 20 or more berths, which is usually 10 cabins (or staterooms, as the industry calls them.) With 10 cabins, you�ll receive one cabin (2 berths) for free � that�s like getting a free vacation for you. Book early. As cruises begin to fill up, the cruise line may decide to offer only 1 berth per 12 or 15. It pays to plan in advance. Find a Travel Agent who is experienced, not just in cruises, but in GROUP cruises. He or she will be able to negotiate the best rates, and most free berths for your group. Let them know up front that you expect to receive 1 complimentary berth per 10 paid berths, as the Travel Coordinator. (If you don�t specify the complimentary berth, some will simply use it to provide a discounted rate for all the members.) A Travel Agent experience in GROUP cruises will be able to find cruise lines that are offering promotions over your dates. Often the cruise line will provide mailers to publicize your trip, for free.
For online agent booking, I usually book from Express Airline Tickets .com
