Exclusive Savings Cruise Deals

Our 💎Exclusive Savings💎 cruises are a little bit special.

What?

When selected cruises first go on sale, Cruise Deals secures a limited allocation of cabins at the launch fare. As the sailing becomes more popular, prices often increase – but if our allocation is still available, you can still book at that earlier, lower fare.

Why?

That's why some of our 💎Exclusive Savings💎 cruises can be hundreds, or even thousands, of dollars cheaper than the current market price. On selected sailings, you'll also receive bonus onboard credit for even more holiday value.

The catch?

These fares are limited. Once our allocation sells out, or the cruise line recalls the remaining cabins, the Exclusive Savings fare disappears.

Why Choose an Exclusive Savings Fare?

Lower Cruise Prices

Selected sailings may offer fares below standard market pricing, helping you stretch your holiday budget further.

Bonus Onboard Credit

Many Exclusive Savings cruises include bonus onboard spending money that can be used during your voyage.

No Group Travel Required

Despite being secured through special cruise inventory, these fares do not require you to join a group, travel with others or participate in any organised activities.

Same Cruise, Better Value

You'll receive the same accommodation, dining, entertainment and onboard experience as every other guest sailing on the ship.

Limited Availability

Exclusive Savings fares are available on selected sailings and cabin categories only. As availability changes, fares and inclusions may be updated or withdrawn without notice.

💎Exclusive Savings💎

Auckland Exclusive Savings

If you're looking for the easiest way to cruise from New Zealand, our Auckland Exclusive Savings are a great place to start. Sailing from your own backyard means less time travelling and more time enjoying your holiday, with no need to factor in overseas flights before your cruise begins. We regularly secure exclusive fares on selected departures from Auckland, giving Kiwi travellers access to prices that aren't available through the cruise line's standard public pricing. Whether you're after a quick island escape or a longer adventure, these exclusive offers make cruising from Auckland even better value.

Our Cruise Specialist Shelley Williams says: "If your dates are flexible, keep an eye on Auckland departures throughout the year. Some of the best value sailings can appear when cruise lines release extra inventory or special promotions, and they rarely last long."

Australia & NZ Exclusive Savings

Australia and New Zealand cruises remain one of the most popular choices for Kiwi travellers, combining spectacular scenery with the convenience of cruising close to home. Our Exclusive Savings collection features selected sailings exploring iconic destinations throughout the region, offering outstanding value without compromising on the onboard experience. Whether you're discovering New Zealand's breathtaking coastline, crossing the Tasman or enjoying a relaxed roundtrip itinerary, these exclusive deals help you stretch your holiday budget further while still enjoying everything that makes cruising so popular.

Our Cruise Specialist Kay Paulsen says: "If you're cruising close to home for the first time, consider a balcony cabin. Watching New Zealand's coastline, Fiordland or Sydney Harbour from your own private space is one of those experiences you'll never forget."

South Pacific Exclusive Savings

There's a reason South Pacific cruises are one of our best-selling holiday options. Picture white sandy beaches, crystal-clear lagoons, warm tropical weather and relaxed island culture, all without the hassle of packing and unpacking between destinations. Our Exclusive Savings give you access to selected South Pacific cruises at exceptional value, making it even easier to escape to paradise. Whether you're planning a family holiday, romantic getaway or simply chasing some winter sunshine, these exclusive cruise deals help you get more from your holiday budget.

Our Cruise Specialist Jo Scott says: "The South Pacific is fantastic year-round, but shoulder season sailings often offer the sweet spot of great weather, fewer crowds and excellent value."

Asia Exclusive Savings

Asia offers one of the most diverse cruise experiences in the world, combining vibrant cities, fascinating cultures, incredible food and unforgettable scenery in a single holiday. Our Asia Exclusive Savings showcase selected itineraries that let you experience more while enjoying exceptional value on your cruise fare. Many travellers also choose to add a few nights before or after their cruise, making the most of their time exploring destinations throughout the region. If you're looking for a holiday that blends culture, history and relaxation, Asia is hard to beat.

Our Business Owner Jeff Leckey says: "Allow yourself a couple of extra nights before your cruise if you can. It gives you time to explore at your own pace and provides extra peace of mind before embarkation."

USA & Alaska Exclusive Savings

An Alaska cruise is on many travellers' bucket lists, and it's easy to see why. Towering glaciers, abundant wildlife, charming coastal towns and breathtaking scenery combine to create one of the world's most memorable cruise holidays. Our USA & Alaska Exclusive Savings feature selected departures that make experiencing this incredible region even more rewarding. Many itineraries can also be paired with extra time on the West Coast, allowing you to create a complete North American holiday around your cruise.

Our Product Manager Emma Bull says: "Don't spend every scenic cruising day on your balcony. Grab a warm jacket and head to the open decks as well—you'll often enjoy the best panoramic views and have more opportunities to spot whales, bears and other wildlife."

Mediterranean & Europe Exclusive Savings

Few holidays let you experience as many iconic destinations as a European cruise. Wake up somewhere new almost every day, from historic cities and picturesque coastal villages to famous islands and breathtaking landscapes, while only unpacking once. Our Mediterranean & Europe Exclusive Savings make it easier to experience one of the world's most sought-after cruise regions, with selected departures offering exceptional value across a wide range of itineraries. It's a relaxed and rewarding way to see more of Europe in a single holiday.

Our Cruise Specialist Shelley Knight says: "If it's your first European cruise, arrive a few days before departure. You'll have time to adjust to the time zone, explore your embarkation city and start your holiday feeling refreshed rather than rushed."
