And, cruisers can receive an onboard credit up to $900 for bookings made on November 13, 2025 for voyages departing on or after that date.
Certain holiday and summer season cruises, and Alaska cruisetours are excluded from these offers.
Norwegian Cruise Line
Norwegian Cruise Line launched its biggest sale of the year with a 50% discount on all voyages — and that means all itineraries and all ships. The sale rollout coincided with the line’s announcement that it is bringing back its former Free at Sea package.
That value-added package features around $2,000 in savings that come in the form of a beverage and WiFi package, dining offers, and onboard credits that can be applied to shore excursions.
Celebrity Cruises
Celebrity Cruises’ Black Friday deals took effect on November 6, 2025 and continue through December 8, 2025. The second guest in a cabin can sail for up to 75% off the regular fare, and for those who book by November 10, 2025, the line offers up to $700 in other savings.
The deals are available on cruises departing through May 10, 2028, and include special voyages such as those with routings perfect for viewing the 2026 solar eclipse.
The offers do not apply to Galapagos Island cruises or to Celebrity River Cruises.
Virgin Voyages
Cruisers looking for a big bargain can check out Virgin Voyages’ Black Friday sale that offers an 80% discount on the second guest in a stateroom.
The deal is available on bookings made through December 4, 2025, and features a Bar Tab credit up to $400. Some Virgin cruises are priced at $99 per person, per night, a rate that the cruise line says is the lowest fare it has ever offered.
Margaritaville at Sea
Margaritaville at Sea unveiled its Black Friday sale that features a “Cruise + Bundle” package combining a beverage and WiFi plan for $199, which is a savings of 50% off the regular cost of the two plans.
The Bundle plan covers the cruise fare, 15 alcoholic drinks per day and unlimited non-alcoholic beverages, plus unlimited WiFi for one device.
Moreover, the Black Friday sale knocks 60% off all cruise fares and includes preview pricing on sailings aboard the line’s newest ship, Beachcomber, which will join the fleet in 2027.
The sale also features discounts on the 2026 Paradise Pass, which provides unlimited cruises with special perks onboard Paradise, which sails year-round from Palm Beach, Florida.
Oceania Cruises
Upmarket Oceania Cruises kicked off its Black Friday sale with an offer of up to 50% off cruise fares on 170-plus voyages with departure dates in 2026 and 2027. The offers became available on November 5, 2025.
The discount is valid on cruises in Europe, the Caribbean, Alaska, and Asia.
