Royal Caribbean Cruises from $229 with onboard credits too

I’ve just run across this pretty amazing sounding deal on Expedia about Royal Caribbean cruises. The headline says cruises starting at $229, and even though I can’t find that one anywhere on the actual list, there are several that start at $239 or $249 and they all include onboard credit of up to $100. You might expect to only get a 1-night cruise for that price, but the cheap ones are all 3 and 4-night cruises in the Caribbean and to Mexico.

Sure, there are going to be a few extra fees and surcharges, and the onboard credit is per cabin instead of per person, but even when you add that all up it means you can take one of these cruises for under $100 per person per day in many cases, and keep in mind that this includes your food, entertainment, transportation, and of course your accommodations. Check out the Expedia cruise sale for the details.
