Frequently Asked Questions about Military Cruise Discounts
Do I qualify for a military discount on this cruise?
Yes, if you’re active duty, retired, or honorably discharged from any branch of the U.S. military—or a spouse or dependent—you qualify for our military discounts.
Which cruise lines offer military discounts directly, and which ones do you supplement with your own?
Royal Caribbean, Celebrity, Princess, and MSC offer military discounts directly. For lines that don’t—like Viking, Oceania, and Silversea—we add a 5% discount ourselves.
How do I book a cruise and make sure I get the best military deal available?
Search our site or contact us directly. We’ll apply all military discounts—ours and the cruise line’s—and make sure you get the lowest rate available.
Can you help me find a cruise that departs from my preferred port between specific dates?
Yes, just use our Cruise Search Tool or contact us with your travel dates and preferred departure port, and we’ll handpick the best cruise options for you with your military discount applied.
What are the benefits of booking with Military Cruise Deals instead of directly through the cruise line?
We apply exclusive military discounts the cruise lines don’t offer, provide personalized service, and often get you a better deal than booking direct.
Can you compare prices for Royal Caribbean and Norwegian cruises with military discounts included?
Yes, just tell us your preferred travel dates and destination—we’ll send you side-by-side price comparisons with all eligible military savings included.
Does Military Cruise Deals monitor prices after I book and help me get a refund if the price drops?
Yes. We automatically monitor your rate from the moment you book until your final payment date. If the fare drops, we re-fare the booking and the savings come off your price — you don’t have to watch for it or ask. Two things worth knowing: our system tracks the fare code your booking is held under, so if the cruise line launches an entirely new fare code that isn’t linked to your reservation, it may not be picked up automatically — if you spot a lower price, tell us and we’ll check it. And when a lower rate is applied, the new promotion often doesn’t carry the onboard credit or perks attached to the original fare, so we’ll always show you the trade-off before we change anything.
Do you offer discounts for family members of military personnel or veterans?
Yes, in most cases spouses and dependents qualify. For some cruise lines, only the military member must be sailing, but others require the discount-eligible person to be onboard.
Can I get help finding two connecting cabins for my family on a 7-day cruise?
Absolutely. Let us know your preferred cruise line, dates, and how many people, and we’ll find connecting or side-by-side cabins at the best military price.
