RCCL direct vs TA

[arucruzn]

Which way would be best to go by for the best rates, etc. I have always gone directly through RCCL when booking, but going through some threads I am seeing some really good deals by using TA's. Also, I am looking at last minute deals (as usual), etc.

Help?:confused:

This is your homework for today :D: Do a little research before you book. Check online booking sites, call or visit local TA's and see what they offer.

I have booked 2 cruises thru RCCL directly and other with 2 different TA's because of their offers. One time a TA gave me pre-paid gratuitudes, another time a cheaper rate.

We booked the Oasis onboard the Freedom, so we got $100 OBC and reduced deposit.

Go for whoever offers a better deal!
