I’ve found a few European cruise deals from Cruise.com, so if you’re contemplating a cruise in Europe this fall or winter, now is the time to start looking for discounts and sales. There’s a West Mediterranean cruise from Royal Caribbean that will get you seven days with stops in places like Barcelona, Rome, Naples and Palermo for as little as $599. That’s an incredible deal, any way you slice it. That price is only available with the November 15, 2008 sailing date, but the other departure dates have prices starting at just $699. So as long as one of the four November sailing dates works for you, you could have a great week-long Mediterranean cruise for very little money. Get all the details on this particular trip here.

The other Cruise.com deal has to do with extras that you’ll get if you book specific Europe cruises from Azmara. One of the extras is getting up to $600 in onboard credit thrown in with your booking (which ain’t nothing, especially when you think about those evenings you’ll likely spend in the ship’s bar!). Another deal is for those of you who are considering booking two Azmara cruises back to back – you’ll get up to $800 off the total fare with certain cruises. Plus, with some of the Azmara cruises you’ll get your shipboard gratuities for free. And free is a very good price. Get all the details on this particular deal here.
