Is Kids Sail Free Really a Deal?

Filed under: Cruise News, Planning

So- lets take a look.

I priced some popular family cruises yesterday, March 23, 2022, and have repriced the same sailings today when the sale went live. For this post I looked at two Oasis Class sailings and three Freedom Class sailings. Two are during Spring Break season but not included in the blackout dates for Kids Sail Free, two are 2022 summer sailings, and one is during fall of 2022.

You can compare all of the pre/post Kids Sail Free prices below and I must say, while I have always been a Kids Sail Free skeptic, there are some significant savings to be found that more than compensate for the small price increases we have seen over the week leading up to the launch of the sale.

What do you think?

OASIS CLASS

Wonder of the Seas, March 26, 2023

I’m starting with March 26, 2023 on Wonder. It sails out of Port Canaveral and is just outside the blockout dates for Kids Sail Free but still convenient for some Spring Breaks.
