Cruise pricing/detailed research

When booking a cruise, I usually check a particular website which shows prices for all cruiselines and itineraries (uniglobe). Do readers of this forum frequent other websites that offer this information as I think there must surely be more than the one I currently use. I do read cruisecritic and cruisemates, in addition to cruiseline websites. What is the benchmark you use for checking prices (other than phoning lots of travel agents)?<BR>Thanks to all who reply.

East Coast - Also look at icruise.com. They pretty much cover the industry, and present prices in a very easy to read tabular form. They'll present the entire schedule for a ship in a calendar form, then prices by cabin category, with descriptions of each category. <BR> <BR>Only disadvantage is that you can't compare prices between ships side-by-side, but I'm not aware of any website that lets you do that. <BR> <BR>Good luck!

I usually check bestcruises.com. They have a good website that allows you to check their pricing by destination. Over the years, I've found that they usually come in the lowest or at least match the lowest fares when I've gotten quotes from several agencies, at least on Celebrity and RCCL.

I have tried Uniglobe, but I have found cruisehopping.com to have better prices, especially if you call and speak to an agent directly.

Travelocity lets you choose up to 10 cruise lines side by side to compare.
