Costa Cruise Kids Sail Free Fall-Winter 2009

 

Good news. Costa will be running ships in the Caribbean this fall and winter.  They've already started promoting these cruises.

Itineraries are from 5-7 nights and prices start at $75US pp per night. Will prices get better over time...possibly it really depends on demand.

Costa 7 Nights from $399 per person

 7-Night Caribbean Cruises from $50 a day

I just got this via email a few days ago. 
The sailings are on the Costa Fortuna out of Fort Lauderdale on Feb 15, Feb 22, Mar 1 and March 8.  This does not include any March Break dates of course.

Costa is our favorite cruise line for authentic italian food and overall value.  We've been on Disney (twice), Carnival, MSC and Costa.

I priced this deal out and I'm not sure how accurate these rates are.  March 8, it worked out to $1500 per couple and over $2000 for a family of 4 in an inside stateroon...not much of a deal to me.

Come on COSTA, smarten up!
