Is there any benefit to booking while onboard?

I am going on vista in April and want to book another cruise on the horizon... is there a benefit to booking while I am on the ship? Is there a deal? Or should I just wait to book later?

I believe typically you get an onboard credit to use on your next cruise.

Yes there is.

Yes, Onboard credit of the following amounts:

 

$50.00 per stateroom on a 3/4/5 day cruise

$75.00 per stateroom on a 6-day cruise

$100.00 per stateroom on a 7-9 day cruise

$200.00 per stateroom on 12 day or longer cruises

And, if you are unsure of the date that you would like to cruise next, just pick a cruise in the future and be sure to book one of the refundable rates. When you are ready to settle on a particular cruise, they will transfer your OBC to the new date (as well as your "friends and family" coupons for their OBC). Just be sure that you are making changes before your originally booked cruise goes into the nonrefundable period. I just did this transfer with my booking, and there were no problems at all.
