Costco Cruises with Norwegian Getaway
Cruises aboard the Norwegian Getaway, seven-day journeys to the eastern Caribbean that happen every week, are one of Costco’s top-selling cruises. The Norwegian Getaway is part of the newest class of ships of Norwegian Cruise Line – the Breakaway Class – and is in fact the most recent ship to join the NCL fleet. (Its sister ship, the similarly named Norwegian Breakaway, entered service for Norwegian one year earlier, in 2013.) Despite the limited duration of its existence, it has proven quite popular with, and is highly rated by, Costco members, so below we provide an overview of the Costco cruises on the Norwegian Getaway, as well as explain how to book them.

Costco Cruises with Disney Fantasy
The Disney Fantasy is one of the most popular cruise ships booked via Costco Travel. Its frequent seven-day trips to the Western Caribbean are, in fact, one of the four Costco top-selling cruises. The Disney Fantasy is also a new ship that has been highly rated by Costco members who have sailed with the vessel, so we figured the ship deserved its own article. Below we give an overview of the Disney Fantasy, as well as explain how to book a cruise with the Fantasy using Costco Travel. Read more […] -
Top-Selling Costco Cruises
The top-selling Costco cruises are hard to determine. This is true not only because Costco does not list how many people book any given cruise, but also because a top-selling or best-selling cruise is a somewhat slippery concept. No doubt a number of the thousands of Costco cruises sell-out each year, and how do you compare sold-out cruises to one another? The top-selling Costco cruises might also be defined as the most popular cruise itineraries offered by Costco, but this too would be hard to determine, as some cruises are offered frequently, perhaps even all year, whereas others are offered only a handful of times during a season, and obviously the cruises that sail the most will be booked by more people. It is therefore hard to say what are objectively the top-selling Costco cruises; however, Costco does have a list of four top-selling cruises on their site, and while it is unclear exactly how these cruises came to be deemed “top-selling,” they are clearly popular cruises, and thus are worth examining.

Costco Cocktail Cruise
The Costco cocktail cruise is one of the four 2015 Buyer’s Choice cruises. Costco’s 2015 Buyer’s Choice Cocktails Cruise, to use its full and official name, came to our attention while writing about Costco wine cruises (also Buyer’s Choice cruises), and we thought it deserved an article unto itself. Below we provide an overview of the Costco cocktail cruise, explaining the details of the cruise and what to expect on board. Read more […] -
Costco Wine Cruises
Wine has long been a part of cruise vacations. This is the case most obviously because wine is an alcoholic beverage, and people like to drink a lot of alcohol on cruises, but wine, conceived as an art and experience, can also serve as a focal point of a cruise, not a mere means to inebriation. Costco’s 2015 Buyer’s Choice cruises illustrate the central role that wine can play on a cruise, as two of the four options available focus exclusively on wine. Below we provide some information about these Costco wine cruises, which you must book through Costco Travel in order to get the “exclusive extras” that we detail. Read more […] -
Costco Family Cruises
Essentially all cruises can be family cruises, but some cruises are definitely more family-friendly than others. This is true of Costco cruises as well. While technically any Costco cruise could be a “family cruise” in the sense that a family can take the cruise together, there are some special offerings that are specifically designed for families. Below is a guide to these Costco family cruises, which explains what they are and how to book them. Read more […]
