Plan my New Year's cruise ↗Before you book
Book early
Holiday weeks are the most requested sailings of the year. Balconies and suites go first.
Fly in a day ahead
December brings winter storms and crowded airports. Arrive the day before so a delay doesn't cost you the ship.
Drive to the port
Living in Texas? Galveston lets you skip flights entirely during the busiest travel week.
Plan for the party
New Year's Eve is usually a formal or gala night with a deck party at midnight. Pack one dressy outfit.
