The Carnival vacation Club is a sort of timeshare arrangement for cruiseline use. Also, RCI (Resort Condominium International) allows exhange of points weeks for cruises, but you have to pay an additional fee per day that makes it very costly (cheaper to save your points for a condo and pay the cruise separately)

RCI and STS also have timeshares with cruise lines. I cant see where it was a good deal to use them for a cruise when you can find great bargins on them and not pay an exchange fee plus a weekly fee to use it not counting the cost to start with.

IMHO, the only timeshares I have found to be sound investments are those in Manhattan. ;)

We used a week through RCI and cruised Alaska the summer of 2004. Turned out to be worth it to us.
