What stands out
  • Lowest typical balcony price per night: on contemporary lines, Bahamas (typically $172 a night); on premium lines, Caribbean (typically $165 a night); on luxury lines, Mediterranean (typically $614 a night).
  • Pricier than usual this month: Mediterranean (10% above usual).
  • Ocean crossings (repositioning) run cheapest per night because of the days at sea.

Prices are per person, per night, taxes and port fees included (Viking River excludes them): the middle sailing in each cell, so a cell compares like with like across regions whatever the trip length. Regions are the cruise lines’ own, with river and repositioning sailings counted once, in their own rows.
