Tutone56 Posted November 28, 2022 #1 Share Posted November 28, 2022 (edited) Hey everyone, we haven't cruised in a few years, the last one on the POA, the last cruise before the Covid. I was looking at the prices today for a New England/Canada cruise out of Boston around the end of August and it was around $5300 for the 2 of us for a mid ship balcony, no airfare necessary. Is that typical nowadays? Edited November 28, 2022 by Tutone56 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phoenix1181 Posted November 28, 2022 #2 Share Posted November 28, 2022 The fares from Boston in 2023 are almost double what they were in 2022. I'm hoping to do Boston to Bermuda again next summer but unless the prices come down some, I'll be heading to Maine or New Hampshire! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One additional port when departing out of Boston. NYC is less convenient for me but the price difference is rather substantial. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Other lines are here periodically but NCL is the only line that sails continuously for Boston for about 6 months every year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare mking8288 Posted November 28, 2022 #8 Share Posted November 28, 2022 Don't book at those crazy prices, wait until beginning of next Summer while watching prices - unless you "must" be in a certain category of cabins, deck and location - as it'll likely begin to come down & slide on a slope, like this season - OV and Inside for about the same and for just a little more, Balcony GTY & even those Club Balconies. NCL ships sailing out of NY doing donuts from late August into October ... (it's a longer drive into NY, depending on how far you are in RI but weekends - fairly easy. Happy planning !
