Fuel Surcharges-Going, Going, Gone?

Several of the major contemporary lines including Carnival, NCL, and Royal Caribbean have announced they will be removing fuel surcharges from 2009 sailings. All the details are not clear as to which bookings this will impact, but you will be updated as we are updated. It really looks as if those fully paid bookings will receive onboard credit or refunds for the fuel surcharges paid. That would be a happy gift right now, especially with all the gloomy economic news.

There are some killer deals on cruises for sailings in the next two months if you can take advantage. Prices are looking like the post 9/11 cruise rates, and with the removal of fuel charges you are looking at some very attractive rates on all categories, not just inside staterooms.
