I am thinking of cruising this year for Thanksgiving.... What should I expect???

Higher prices cause of the holiday and lots of kids for the same reason.

I figured that much but what I meant was does it feel like a Holiday while on board....

We've only cruised once during Thanksgiving week (in 2001) and would love to do it again. I haven't price checked for that timeframe lately, but when we booked that cruise (several months in advance) it was cheaper than summer prices. On Thanksgiving, they had a special holiday meal, turkey with all the traditional side dishes, in the dining room.

I also forgot to mention that the ship (Triumph) was decorated for Christmas. They put up all the decorations the day we boarded the ship.

Thanksgiving is a great time to cruise. Weather is nice, prices haven't "jumped" yet and no holiday dishes to wash.:D The ships are decorated and traditional meal is offered, but come on......Turkey vs. chataubriand!!!!!! A no brainer for me.

 

Expect lots of fun,sun, and a great cruise.

Look now as cabins are filling up for the holiday sailing. Some special cabins, like the aft balcony and some suites, the sieway placed IS cabins and others of high desire are taken many monthes prior. You can still find a nice selection. I helped my sister find a nice cruise on the Valor that week with 2 children and ILs. That ship and the Triumph both still had balcony cabins less than $800. Hope you find what you want and have a great hoilday. The ship should be beautiful (no matter which one you sail). I have done 3 different lines at Thanksgiving and they all have lovely decorations about the ship. Sure there are more children but that occurs whenever there are no classes. The children camps/clubs do a great job.
