This post was inspired by someone very close to me, my sister. She was trying to tell me that she found a cruise for $229. Final price. The Email My Bahamas cruise initially said $229 per person but when I went to book it, it was $646.54!!! Why did the advertised price say one thing and when I booked it was another? What gives?? Attractive Pricing Buying a cruise can be compared to buying a car: The pricing looks very attractive until you start adding on the tax, tag and title. Based on Double Occupancy A cruise ship is a big floating resort with the exception that the cruise fare you see is based on double occupancy. If you see a price for $229, double that for two people, triple for three and so on. Some cruise lines give pricing breaks for more than two people per stateroom.
