We all know that Black Friday has amazing travel and cruise deals, but there’s a catch!

Many times, people are looking for specific dates for the cruise or overseas vacation that they are considering, however, cruise lines, hotels, etc. (for the most part) only give great deals on limited vacations!
A friend of mine called me the other day and asked me if there was a Black Friday deal on a specific river cruise on a specific date. Unfortunately, no!
The river cruise line did have a few discounts on their website, however, it wasn’t for the specific date requested by my friend.
The key is grabbing a great Black Friday deal to be flexible with the dates of your vacation, and then not waiting to book it!
Reflecting on 2025, my wife and I sailed on both the Celebrity Reflection and Celebrity Equinox. I was enjoyed two amazing rivers cruises on the AmaWaterways AmaMagna (Danube) and the Riviera Travel MS George Eliot (Rhine).
My wife and I will be sailing on the MSC Seashore on Nov 30th and we are looking forward to returning to MSC’s Ocean Cay Marine Reserve.
