Oops! One ar, two bees. My mistake.

The price of a cruise depends on many factors. Time of year, itinerary, cabin type and location. You can get a cruise pretty cheap if you don't mind an inside cabin on a lower deck. The nice thing about a cruise is that it includes all your meals. But booze'll cost you. And if you want to do any shore excursions, that'll add to the cost too. But with a little research you can often book things on your own for less than the ship will charge. Hubby and I did a cruise two years ago and we only paid for one shore excursion in Grand Cayman. Otherwise we just wandered around the ports on our own.

With the economy in the tank, there may be some good cruise deals this year. The ship's gotta sail whether there's 100% occupancy or only 50%. They'd rather fill the ship at half the price than sail empty.

A coworker just booked a 7 day cruise for just over $600/person. But, that's out of Galveston just south Houston. Not sure about prices out of Miami.
