Most cruiselines offer pre and post hotel packages to compliment your cruise booking. I always tell my clients to take advantage of that offer if they are new to cruise travel. What if your plane is late coming in and you miss your cruise? Or what if the cruise does not make it back on time for you to take your flight out? Not only that, you will also get a chance to see the port city's attractions. Would you really just want to fly in, take your cruise and fly back out?

For the savvy cruisers, I always recommend that they book their own hotels. Repeat cruisers always know that booking your hotel with the cruiseline is more expensive. There are so many hotel deals available on the internet and membership discounts that are not available to you if you book with the cruiseline. You can save your cruise travel dollars, and spend it on enjoying the city.

Whether your cruise is departing from Honolulu, San Diego, Port Canveral, Miami, Tampa, New Orleans, New York, Galveston, Los Angeles, Vancouver, or anywhere worldwide, there is always a good deal to be had. Here are some hotel coupons you can use for your upcoming cruise:
