Do the “Wave” season and save big bucks on your next Oceania cruise

 Do the “Wave” season and save big bucks on your next Oceania cruise

Welcome to the “Wave” season.  The time of year when savvy seafarers can save big bucks on cruises.  Referred to as the “Wave” season because it’s the slowest in the industry and often the time, this is also when  many cruise lines reposition ships from one area of the world to another and lower rates to attract passengers willing to spend more days at sea than in ports.

Oceania Cruises– one of the most popular mid-priced cruise lines just launched its high-value Wave Season promotion with Business Class air upgrades from just $999 per person, one-way, on select 2012 summer sailings, plus two-for-one deposits on all sail dates. The offer is good on new cruise reservations booked now through March 31, 2012.

The Business Class air upgrade is available for those guests booked in Category A to Owner’s Suite category.

“Oceania Cruises’ guests have come to appreciate our two-for-one fares and free airfare. This reduced deposit and Business Class upgrade Wave promotion is yet another way that we provide extraordinary value,” stated James Rodriguez, the line’s senior vice president of sales and marketing.

Oceania Cruises offers an outside the box value for its lower fares  with exceptional food and service; casual chic (no tuxedo needed) ambiance; free alternative dining venues and truly some of the most efficient and friendly crew afloat.

Last year we sailed on the inaugural of Oceania’s spiffy Marina from Miami to Los Angeles. It was our introduction to the cruise line and quite an impressive one in which no matter how hard we searched, we couldn’t find flaws (oops, one, they made the shower too low for tall people, alas not my problem, being rather petite

“Wave Season is off to a record start and we strongly encourage guests to book early to secure the stateroom of their choice before prices increase on April 1,” added Rodriguez.
