If you decide that the fare discounts offer good value, don't forget to account for the high prices of summer flights to Europe and any pre- or post-cruise stays you might want to book independent of the cruise line. Look at the potential total cost of your trip before making a booking decision to ensure you stay within your summer travel budget.

Uniworld bills itself as a high-end luxury line with the "most all-inclusive" offerings. Its fares include unlimited premium spirits and wine, all meals and onboard gratuities. Guided excursions, Wi-Fi and airport transfers are also included. Additionally, passengers can take advantage of complimentary wellness classes led by a certified instructor and enjoy free onboard activities and entertainment.
