March is one of the most deceptive and often frustrating months of the year. After one weekend of unseasonably warm weather, you ditch your layers, exchange your hot coffee for iced, order a new swimsuit online, burst out of your house and roll around in the grass, loudly proclaiming the end of winter. Then, two days later, you get three feet of snow, a sober reminder that summer is still an eternity away. But it doesn’t have to be. What makes March so frustrating is also what makes it such a perfect time to travel somewhere warm. Especially with spring break coming up, there’s really no excuse not to escape winter for a week – either solo or with the crew – with a March cruise somewhere tropical.
March cruise deals you can’t pass up
Apart from seasonal considerations and special celebrations, the most enticing reason to book a cruise – no matter the time of year – is usually because of cruise deals and promos that save you a bunch of money. We’re serving up plenty of these deals in March, including the New (and flexible) Bar Tab Bonus, where you can score extra money on your Bar Tab when you prepay for your voyage. On the flip side, we also give Sailors the opportunity to book now and make monthly payments later, with 0% APR and as low as $0 down when you pay for your trip with Uplift. Spring breakers should pay special attention to our Add a Splash for Your Bash deal. Designed for groups, you’ll get bottomless brunch at The Wake or Razzle Dazzle, a dinner party with curated drinks and desserts, and more.
