After you have exhausted your resources in your wedding day, you might consider cutting your budget for your honeymoon.

Here are some of the things that you can do in order for fulfill your aim to have a cheap honeymoon experience.

Choose a closer location

Plane tickets could carry ½ of the total expenses for your honeymoon trip. If there is a great place near you, why go far? Eliminating the need to buy plane tickets would certainly keep your budget to the minimum.

Book for cheap tickets, choose a cheap airline, or use other modes of transportation

If in case you need to fly in order to get to your honeymoon destination, you can opt to have economy plane ticket. What is 3 to 6 hours of sitting in the economy class if it would mean several hundred bucks saved? You can also consider choosing some smaller airlines. They offer cheaper plane tickets than the big names. Or, better yet, try to use other means of transportation aside from plane. Take a train or a bus. In this way, you can see more places while saving more money.

Book your hotels online

There are several sites online that offer luxury hotels for less. Some of these are: Classic Custom Vacations, Expedia, Last Minute Travel, Orbitz, Quikbook, LuxRes, and All Luxury Hotels. These sites could give you cheaper hotel rooms but still getting the luxury you deserve.

Choosing an All-Inclusive Hotels

There are several all-inclusive hotels that guarantee you to have a complete honeymoon experience for less. Such hotels include: Club Med (which as a total of 120 properties all over the United States, Latin America, South America, Caribbean, Asia, Europe, Middle East, and Africa). Other all-inclusive hotels are:

·SuperClubs,

·Sandals Resorts,

·Occidental Hotels & Resorts (Mexico, Aruba, Antigua, St. Kitts, Dominican Republic, Morocco, Costa Rica, Turks and Caicos, Jamaica, Venezuela, Egypt, and Tunisia),

·Sol Meliá Resorts (Dominican Republic and Mexico), and…

·Viva Resorts Dominican Republic, Bahamas, and Mexico).

Cruising for Less

Cheap honeymoon experience does not limit to hotels and other cost cutting trip techniques. You can also afford cruise.

Choose a site that specializes on the last minute savings. You can also get cheap honeymoon cruise when you bid at auction. Shorter cruise is less expensive. Choosing a cruise that sails at a port near you would further cut the cost of the honeymoon, and making sure that you search for several cruises and comparing the prices would give you better savings.

If you are one of the lucky few who can be flexible in vacation
travel, taking fall vacations can be a great bargain for you.
There are a number of special things going on to capatalize on
plus summer venues still looking for the last of the tourist
dollar.

Top summer destinations are usually great fall bargains. The
weather can still be gorgeious and the crowds gone. Take a look
at Cape Cod and Martha’s Vineyard during this time. Hawaii is
typically a bargain in September. The summer crowds clear out
and there are a few months before the holiday crowds start to
come in.

Look to Europe during this time, too. Many cities emptying out
from the summer tourist crush are still hungry for visitors.
Weather can be great and look for speacial deals on packages
that combine airfare, hotel and transfers plus a tour or two.
Colder European destinations can be a special bargain and look
for great deals to Russia and Scandinavia around this time of
year.

For other ideas look to respositioning cruises. This is when
cruises lines move their ships around to follow the sun. Most
people want to cruise to the warmest, most pleasant regions of
the world. Ships float and therefore they can pick up and just
move from one side of the world to another to follow the sun.

Most Alaska, Europe, Mediterranean and Bermuda cruises, for
instance, are offered in the summer when the weather is the best
in those regions. For cruises to South America, the preferred
time is winter (our winter, when it’s summertime in the southern
hemisphere). The Caribbean is warm year-round, though since
hurricane season stretches from June through November, the
optimal time to cruise the islands is winter and spring, though
many ships are there year-round. In Asia, since much of the
cruising region is near or just north of the equator, temps are
very warm year round, though the wintertime months are slightly
more comfortable.

To be in all of these places at the right time, ships reposition
from one region to another, typically between seasons, during
the months of September and October and April and May. These
one-off oddball itineraries are called repositioning cruises and
they’re often deeply discounted because most don’t include a
whole lot of port calls. Many are two to three weeks in length,
with a long, lazy stretch at sea crossing the Atlantic, Pacific
or Indian oceans — perfect for people who don’t need too much
action, though many lines feature guest lecturers and special
entertainment and activities revolving around music, food, wine
or other topics.

You’ll find some repositioning cruises that don’t include
crossing over vast oceans and therefore offer more ports of call
– for example, when ships move between the Caribbean and New
England/Canada, stopping at points on the eastern coast of the
US along the way. There are a slew of options.

Get the most for your dollar and travel in the fall! See you on
the road

Choosing your cruise is one of the most important steps of your cruise experience. Finding the best cruise agent is essential. Knowing which liner will best suit your needs, style, which destination ports will be of interest to you and when you should travel, are some of the many aspects which should be considered.

This is why a cruise agent is such an important part of your cruise vacation decision.

Below are just a few of the aspects that a good cruise agent will discuss with you during your cruise consultation. Be sure to make notes of any special questions you may have before you speak with them.

The Five W’s

1. Who: Knowing who is travelling is one of the more obvious questions but one which must be carefully considered. Are you a single traveler, a couple, a family, or a group? Are there small children traveling or would you prefer an adult only ship?

Would you prefer a younger or more mature onboard age group? These are some of the important factors which must be considered when selecting the right cruise ship, and some of the many things that your cruise agentwill discuss with you.

2. What Ship to Choose: Each luxury cruise line has many benefits and aspects that make it unique in the industry. Some ships are intimate vessels carrying approximately a hundred passengers, whereas others set sail with several hundred to over a thousand passengers.

The onboard atmosphere of some ships is more formal, with traditional dining venues, whereas others offer a more casual setting with an open dining experience.
Matching you with the ship that will best suit your needs and style should be your first priority. Let the cruise agent help you to choose the ship that is right for you.

3. Where: With over 65% of the world being covered by water, it seems as though the “Where” possibilities are truly endless. Where does one start? How do you choose? Well, one way is by knowing when you can travel to each location and what time of year the itineraries are offered.

Also, what do the destinations offer and are the ports of interest to you? Some of the more common destination choices are: the Caribbean, the Panama Canal, the South Pacific, the Mediterranean, the Baltic, and Africa & Asia. And for the brave what about the titanic route, you may see some nice icebergs.

Your cruise agent should be happy to discuss the many options being offered. In addition, once you have decided on your cruise destination, a good cruise agent will provide you with in-depth information on pre-cruise and post-cruise stays, as well as private shore excursion options.

4. When: When to cruise usually depends on one of two things: when you are able to go or when the itinerary you are interested in taking is being offered. The first consideration, when you are able to go, is easily determined.

Once you establish your time frame, your cruise specialist is able to provide you with a selection of cruises being offered at that time. If you personal availability is flexible, often times, the second consideration, when the itinerary you are interested in taking is being offered, is another way of choosing when to go, as certain itineraries are only offered at certain times of the year.

Your cruise agent can help you to select the best time to travel to your destination and which itineraries are being offered.

5. Why are you traveling: The question is, far too often, overlooked by travelers, and is one of the more important questions to consider. Are you traveling for rest and relaxation?

Are you traveling to learn about a specific destination or culture? Are you interested in a learning or life enrichment experience? Or is it a special occasion (i.e. a honeymoon, an anniversary, a family reunion, etc.)?

These scenarios are just a few of the many reasons that you may be considering a cruise and knowing “Why” you are traveling, will help your cruise specialist match you with the cruse line, ship and itinerary that will best suit your needs.

As you can see, there are many factors that go into the planning of your cruise vacation. Researching, defining, and refining all of these variables is why your cruise agent is such an important part of your decision and selection process.

Hope you have a wonderful cruise. By the way,do you get seasick? The chances on a cruise are very slim. However it is always advisable to take some sea sick pills with you; just in case.
