Find a cruise

How to search cruises with the cruise finder

The form above searches all 5,226 sailings we track on ten cruise lines, departing over the next 12 months. Combine as many of the six filters as you like. An empty filter matches everything.

• Line: a single cruise line.
• Region: the destination as the line files it. Sub-regions such as Western Caribbean and Eastern Caribbean appear separately from Caribbean, so try both.
• Departure port: where the cruise starts, with the number of sailings shown next to each port.
• Month: the month the ship departs.
• Min nights: hides shorter trips, useful for skipping three- and four-night getaways.
• Max € pp: the most you will pay per person for the whole sailing, not per night.

Results are sorted by departure date, 25 to a page. Each search has its own address, so you can bookmark or share it. Some to start with:

• Caribbean cruises at €700 or less
• Mediterranean from Barcelona, seven nights or more
• Alaska from Seattle
• Bahamas under €400
• Princess, ten nights or more

What the cruise prices mean

The Cheapest column is the lowest fare we found for the cheapest cabin on that sailing, per person. We capture fares from the booking sites every night and convert them to euros, so fares from different markets can be compared directly. The timestamp above the table shows when the prices were last checked.

The €/night column divides that fare by the number of nights. Use it to compare a four-night Bahamas trip with a two-week voyage. Across everything on sale, the median is €152 per night, and the cheapest sailing right now works out at €33 per night. Taxes, port fees and gratuities are handled differently by each line and market, so check what the fare includes before you pay. Open a ship to see its fares by market and cabin, plus the price history chart.

Find cruises by departure port

The port filter lists 113 departure ports. Miami (581 sailings), Port Canaveral (580) and Fort Lauderdale (574) lead, followed by Vancouver, Barcelona, Southampton and Galveston. For terminals, parking and hotels near the ship, read our guide to cruises from Miami. Looking for a port of call rather than a starting point? Filter by region and scan the Ports column.

Find cruises by date

Choose a month to see every departure in it. Each month over the next year has more than 400 sailings on sale, so pair the month with Min nights to fit a fixed holiday, or with a price cap. For an overview of a month, with the cheapest routes and how prices compare, browse the month guides on the blog.
