Luxury, River and Expedition Cruises
Covert Cruise Fares: The Rates Cruise Lines Don't Publish
Covert fares are unpublished rates cruise lines offer only through select travel agencies. On select luxury, river, and expedition sailings, they can be $3,000 or more below published fares.
What Are Covert Cruise Fares?
Our covert fares cover luxury ocean, river, and expedition/polar cruises only. Covert fares are an official cruise line rate category. Cruise lines offer them only through select travel agencies, and they are booked directly with the line just like any other fare.
These fares are not advertised publicly. Cruise lines use them to fill cabins without discounting their published prices, so the rates are shared quietly with approved agencies rather than posted online.
That is why our covert fares list is delivered privately by email instead of being published on this website.
