If You Can Leave From New York on the Thanksgiving Weekend You Can Enjoy a 7-Night Cruise for Under $50 a Day

Mind you, the itinerary is a dull one: You spend three days at sea simply going to and from Manhattan, one day in Port Canaveral, Florida, one day in Grand Stirrup Cay, Bahamas (a so-called private beach), and one day in Nassau, Bahamas. But you can eat till you burst, enjoy various onboard recreations, and sleep until noon, on one of the cheapest cruises ever offered: $349 per person for seven nights in an inside cabin occupied by two people. That's the distress price that Norwegian Cruise Line is permitting Vacations To Go ( www.vacationstogo.com ) to offer for the November 27 sailing of its Norwegian Gem from New York City. Even when you add tipping, you spend a small total because port charges are already included in the $349 price.

It will never get cheaper than this.
