Seattle, WA, Jan. 2, 2020 — It’s that time of year again – wave season. And small ship cruise line Windstar Cruises has an offer that makes cruising on its boutique ships carrying fewer than 350 passengers even more enticing.

  • Windstar’s “Pick Your Perk” savings for wave season, beginning January 7, includes a choice of the following:

  • $1,000 of onboard spending (for things like shore excursions or spa treatments)

  • Up to $300 airfare credit

  • Unlimited WiFi (up to $70/day)

  • Guests booking a Premium Suite have an additional perk option: Windstar’s popular All-In Package, which includes unlimited Wi-Fi access, unlimited laundry service, hotel and beverage gratuities, and the top shelf Captain’s Exclusive Beverage Package featuring all wines by the glass, all beer selections, all mini-bar beverages, and a broad assortment of cocktails (a value of $89 per person, per day).

Plus, guests also receive complimentary wine (up to two bottles per cabin); up to 20 percent savings on Star Collector Voyages (cruises that are 14 days or more); reduced rates for solo travelers; and reduced deposits from $50 per guest. Guests must book by February 28, 2020 to qualify for the Pick Your Perk savings.

In addition, travel advisors can earn a $100 per cabin bonus commission for booking new guests – those who will be sailing with Windstar for the first time ever.

These savings/perks are available on Windstar cruises around the globe, from brand-new itineraries in Australia and New Zealand, to adventurous journeys in Alaska and Canada, or “get the heck out of winter” Caribbean cruise or Costa Rica and Panama Canal cruise.
