Black Friday’s Best Cruise Deals

Look, we know it’s tempting to camp outside of Target starting Thursday night to be first in line for a 3-in-1 blender/juicer/food processor combo or a TV so big it won’t fit in the back of the car, but with a pandemic raging, that’s probably not the best idea. The annual American tradition of fist-fighting each other for 30% off isn’t safe *this year* but that doesn’t mean you can’t snag an awesome Black Friday cruise deal from one of your favorite cruise lines without having to leave the house! 

We’ve put together a long list of the best Black Friday cruise deals we could find and it’s safe to say that 2021 and beyond has never looked brighter! Give yourself something to look forward to next year and book while the deals are still hotter than the sand in the Caribbean.
