Black Friday Deals?

[DDL4056]

Hi, excited to start planning for a cruise in May.  We want to book 5 rooms and was wondering best way to get the best deals.  Are there any Black Friday deals?  Is it best to book with TA or directly with MSC?

 

TIA

Definitely use a TA. Can’t stress this enough. Have a block of rooms in mind and then have a TA book them for you. 
 

not sure about Black Friday deals. Just keep checking prices.

Can you recommend one?  If I use American Express travel is that a good resource?

FYI, not all TAs deal with MSC.

This is true, my favourite TA is in the states and I use her for all my Celebrity bookings but when I asked her to price a Yacht club stateroom, she said she doesn’t deal with MSC said too many complaints! So I booked a Celebrity cruise with her and then booked the MSC cruise with my UK agent.

They always have a Black Friday special that actually runs into early December. Write down current pricing now so that you can compare to what they're offering at the end of November.
