That being said, though, you have plenty of ways to filter these search results. You can filter cruises by price per person, sailing duration, destination, cruise line, departure city, ship, customer reviews, trip type (family, kids, luxury, etc.), features and amenities, and more. As far as sorting options go, there’s a lot left to be desired. Cruise Direct users can only sort their search results by price, duration, or review score. The best cruise booking sites, in my opinion, have a handful of sorting options that make it as easy as it should be to personalize your search and find the perfect cruise for you.
Where Cruise Direct makes up for this is in its award-winning customer support and flexible payment plans. Everybody knows that a cruise isn’t cheap, and sometimes it can be tricky to plan and pick the perfect one. Cruise Direct doesn’t let that get in the way of your enjoyment. By offering monthly payment plans and a book now, pay later option, anybody can book a cruise today. Furthermore, Cruise Direct is staffed by cruise travel experts who will go above and beyond to ensure that you find the best cruise deal possible. Of all the travel sites that I have reviewed, Cruise Direct probably comes closest to that pre-internet travel agency level of customer care and attention that has all but disappeared in the 21st century.
