DDL4056 Posted October 30, 2023 #1 Share Posted October 30, 2023 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 Diane Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Georgia_Peaches Posted October 30, 2023 #2 Share Posted October 30, 2023 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DDL4056 Posted October 30, 2023 Author #3 Share Posted October 30, 2023 Can you recommend one? If I use American Express travel is that a good resource? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Welcome to Cruise Critic. When you joined I believe you were sent an email with a link to the Community Guidelines. I think many people never read them, but one of the items you would have read is that on CC we are not allowed to name or discuss travel agents/agencies. Link to the guidelines is on the menu bar.

sfaaa Posted October 30, 2023 #5 Share Posted October 30, 2023 FYI, not all TAs deal with MSC. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
