]]> Over the years, it has gotten easier and easier to book airlines and hotel rooms online. I personally don’t know anyone who goes to travel agencies anymore just to book simple straightforward itineraries. Aggregators such as Expedia, Opodo and the likes have made it so easy to find good flight and hotel deals, you don’t need to be a professional to find a package that suits your taste and budget.

But cruises are different, probably because it’s not yet a popular mode of holiday travel? But if that’s what you’re looking for, you just might find the best deals at Cruise Compete. And that’s even without actually searching for it.

Confused? Here’s how it works. Just choose a cruise, create an account, request quotes, and then sit back and let the quotations from various travel agents reach you. In effect, independent travel agencies compete to offer you the best cruise deal.

Have a look at the looong list of Asia/Far East Cruises to choose from, or simply choose one from the Asia/Far East Cruise Specials currently on offer.

]]> I’ve previously thought that cruises are only for honeymooners and er, seniors. I mean, who else would want to be cooped up in a ship for several days on end, in the middle of the ocean?!? But lately, I’ve been thinking, hm, a cruise holiday isn’t that bad, y’know. I can imagine how relaxing and peaceful it can be, and it’s not as if one really spends weeks without docking somewhere.

Thinking of going on a cruise holiday? Consider cruising along Hong Kong, voted by the British cruise magazine Dream World Cruise Destinations readers as one of the destinations in the categories of Best Destination Experience – Independent Sightseeing and Best Turnaround Destination.

Apparently, three biggest cruise companies in the world (Carnival Corporation, Royal Caribbean Cruise Ltd and Star Cruises) have made Hong Kong their home port. Take your pick and itinerary!
