Question by Mike K: Is it better to book a cruise early or closer to the departure date?
I’m looking to go on a cruise in January but want to get the best deal. Would it make more sense to book early or hold out until late December? I know things like hotels and cruises sometimes lower prices as the departure date nears in order to fill vacant space. Whats my best bet?

It depends on the category you want to cruise in. `You may not be able to get a cabin or stateroom in the location you want to because it could already be booked. I would suggest that you keep an eye on the cruise line you are interested in and if your category starts to book real quickly, then you should book a room.
