Fly Cruise Deals for 2026

Where Do These Fly Cruise Deals Go in 2026?

The Caribbean dominates these fly cruise packages in 2026, with sailings fanning out across the region from Florida and Puerto Rico. The Caribbean accounts for the largest share of departures, spread across the main, Southern Caribbean and Western Caribbean itineraries. Beyond the Caribbean, there are sailings into Southeast Asia, departing from Singapore, and a handful of voyages around Australia, ending in Sydney. One sailing heads into Central America, and there are further options in the Mediterranean and along the East Coast USA. Most itineraries run as round trips, though 6 sailings are one-way — on those, you will need a flight home from the disembarkation port, and Cruise1st can arrange that leg as part of the same booking.

Which Lines and Ships Are Sailing?

Royal Caribbean, Celebrity Cruises, Princess Cruises, Azamara, MSC Cruises and Virgin Voyages all feature across these 2026 fly cruise packages. The ships below represent the ones with the most sailings on sale, and each brings something specific to the table.

Norwegian Luna

Norwegian Luna joined the Norwegian Cruise Line fleet in 2025, making it one of the freshest ships available on these 2026 sailings. Its headline feature is The Haven — NCL’s largest-ever private suite enclave, complete with its own pool, exclusive restaurant and around-the-clock concierge. For dining, Sukhothai is NCL’s first Thai fine-dining restaurant, a fleet first alongside the Mandara Spa’s thalassotherapy pool. See Norwegian Luna’s cabins and deck plans to find the grade that suits you.

Star Princess

Star Princess entered service in 2025 and brings more than 1,500 balconies to the Princess Cruises fleet — more balcony cabins than any other ship in the line. With over 29 dining, bar and lounge options on board, there is rarely a reason to eat in the same place twice. Check Star Princess’s cabins and deck plans when you are ready to choose your grade.

Brilliant Lady

Brilliant Lady, launched in 2025 for Virgin Voyages, is adults-only throughout — every passenger, every venue, every sailing. Dining is semi-inclusive across a range of specialist restaurants covering Italian, Korean and Mexican concepts, with no main buffet hall in sight. Entertainment runs along festival lines, with themed parties, theatrical productions and social events built into the rhythm of the voyage. Cabin grades on Brilliant Lady run from:

• Inside — Social Insider I4: 16.4 m², sleeping up to 4, on deck 5 for the least wave motion of all inside cabins
• Ocean View — The Sea View VW: 17.6 m², sleeping up to 4, roughly 5 m² more than the Solo Sea View grade
• XL Sea Terrace TX: 24.6 m², sleeping up to 4, around 30% more space than the standard sea terrace with separate shower and toilet areas
• Massive Suite SM with private hot tub: 199.5 m², sleeping up to 4 — the largest suite on the ship, more than twice the space of the next grade down

Celebrity Edge

Celebrity Edge is one of the most distinctive ships at sea. Its Magic Carpet — a cantilevered platform that travels 13 floors along the ship’s side — serves as a restaurant, bar and the Dinner on the Edge venue. The Infinite Veranda staterooms open the balcony wall fully into your cabin, creating an indoor-outdoor living space that no other cruise line offers. The three-storey Eden venue hosts Cirque-style performers in a living garden setting. Cabin grades on Celebrity Edge include:

• Inside — Deluxe Inside DI: 18.8 m², sleeping up to 4, around 2 m² more spacious than standard inside cabins
• Ocean View — Deluxe Ocean View DO: 22.1 m², sleeping up to 4, the most spacious ocean-view grade on the ship
• Balcony — Sunset Veranda Stateroom SV: 21.2 m², sleeping up to 4, with the largest balcony of any standard balcony cabin at approximately 8.3 m²
• Suite — Iconic Suite IC with private hot tub: 239.8 m², sleeping up to 6, the largest suite in the entire Celebrity fleet with 270° panoramic views from above the bridge

Azamara Journey

With just 694 guests on board, Azamara Journey sails at a scale that opens up boutique harbours large ships cannot reach, and its port stays run longer by design. Specialty restaurants Prime C and Aqualina are included at no extra charge, and the Caviar and Champagne Bar is available throughout the voyage. AzAmazing Evenings — exclusive private cultural events ashore, from vineyard dinners to private concert performances — are complimentary. Cabin grades on Azamara Journey are:

• Inside — Inside cabin 09: 14.7 m², sleeping 2, positioned on one of the upper decks for shorter distances to the pool and bar areas
• Ocean View — Ocean-view cabin 04: 13.3 m², sleeping up to 3, with a window, natural daylight and a clear comfort step up from the inside grades
• Balcony — Club Veranda Plus P1: 16.3 m², sleeping up to 3, with a private balcony and direct access to fresh sea air
• Suite — Club World Owner’s Suite CW: 52 m², sleeping up to 3, the largest suite on the ship, with a separate dressing room and approximately 11 m² more space than the Club Ocean Suite

Adventure of the Seas

Royal Caribbean’s Adventure of the Seas brings a full range of active on-board features: a large climbing wall, a water slide, ice skating and roller skating tracks, and glittering figure-skating shows on the ice rink. See Adventure of the Seas’ cabins and deck plans for cabin options.

What Fare Types Are Available?

The fare structure varies by cruise line, and getting it right means knowing what each tier does and does not include. Here is a summary for the main lines on these packages.

Royal Caribbean

Royal Caribbean sailings here carry several fare types. The standard Cruise Fare is the base price, with an Early Booking Bonus available on qualifying bookings. Fare types such as last-minute offers and third and fourth guest promotions are also available on select sailings — our team can tell you which apply to the departure you have in mind. A Solo Fare covers single occupancy of a stateroom for guests travelling alone.

Celebrity Cruises

Celebrity Cruises offers 3 fare tiers on these 2026 sailings:

• Best Rate: The base fare — cruise, dining, entertainment and activities included. Drinks and Wi-Fi are available to add separately, which suits guests who prefer to choose only what they will use.
• Best Value (All Inclusive): Bundles a classic drinks package and basic Wi-Fi into one price. Good for guests who want predictable costs without tallying extras on board.
• The Retreat: The suite-tier experience — premium drinks, premium Wi-Fi, suite accommodation, exclusive lounge and sundeck access, private dining and dedicated personal service all included.

Princess Cruises

Princess Cruises sailings come in 2 main tiers:

• Princess Standard: The base cruise fare. Princess Plus and Princess Premier packages — covering beverages, Wi-Fi and gratuities — are available to add.
• Princess Plus: Includes 4 casual dining meals per voyage, beverages up to $15 each (up to 15 per day), MedallionNet Max Wi-Fi, pre-paid crew appreciation, unlimited digital photos plus 3 prints, and reserved theatre seating.

Are There Discounts on These 2026 Fly Cruise Deals?

A number of these 2026 fly cruise packages carry a reduced price against what was previously listed for that cabin grade on that sailing. Reductions reach up to 36% on a single departure, though that maximum applies to 1 sailing in the set measured. Most reduced sailings are closer to 5% off. If a specific departure has a reduction, our team will tell you exactly what it is for that grade.

What Does a Cruise1st Fly Cruise Package Include?

Every sailing includes the flight from the UK. As Cruise1st Packages are built by cruise specialists rather than general travel agents, the flight is just the starting point. We can add hotels either side of the cruise, transfers between airport and port, tours and shore excursions, and travel insurance — all on a single booking so nothing is left for you to coordinate separately. If you want the cruise as part of a wider trip — a few nights at the destination before you sail, or time to explore after you disembark — we build that in too.

All of our cruises and packages are booked through ABTA and ATOL-protected channels, and Cruise1st holds a Trustpilot rating of 4.5/5 from more than 7,000 reviews. You are talking to people who know these ships and these routes, not a call centre reading from a script.

Where Do These Sailings Depart From?

All of these fly cruise packages depart from overseas ports, with the flight from the UK included. The most common embarkation points are in Florida — Miami and Fort Lauderdale (Port Everglades) are about half an hour apart, so a Florida-based sailing is worth checking at both ports for dates and prices. Port Canaveral is the third Florida option. Further afield, sailings depart from San Juan, Puerto Rico, Singapore for Southeast Asia itineraries, and Sydney for Australian voyages. On one-way itineraries the return flight home will be from a different port, and we handle that leg as part of the same booking.

What Are the Best Fly Cruise Deals for Late 2026?

If you are planning to travel before the end of 2026, these packages cover the autumn and festive period. 2026 Christmas cruises are among the options here, with Caribbean and Southeast Asia sailings running through December. The median sailing length is 14 nights, and itineraries range from 7 nights up to 23 nights, so there is a duration to suit most holiday allowances. A 14-night Caribbean fly cruise gives you enough time to reach a good spread of ports; a longer sailing into Southeast Asia from Singapore allows for a proper immersion in the region. For last-minute availability, see our last-minute fly cruise deals page.

Sailings are also available on our broader fly cruise deals hub and through the main fly cruises section if you want to compare what is on offer across a wider date range.

Which Other 2026 Sailings Are Worth Considering?

If you are still weighing up where to go in 2026, a few related pages are worth a look. Celebrity Cruises 2026 covers the full range of Celebrity sailings this year, including the Celebrity 2026 sailings from Southampton if you want to skip the flight altogether. All-inclusive Mediterranean cruises in 2026 are popular for autumn departures, and there are dedicated pages for Australia and New Zealand 2026 cruises and Southeast Asia 2026 cruises if either of those regions is the draw. For the full picture of what is sailing in 2026, the 2026 cruises hub covers every line and region.

Planning to travel in 2027 instead? All-inclusive Norwegian Fjords cruises in 2027 are already available if you want to lock in dates further ahead. You can also explore cruise and stay packages for 2026 if you want a hotel stay built into the booking from the start.

Where a discount is shown, it is a reduction from the price previously listed for that cabin grade on that sailing, not a comparison between cabin grades or against a brochure rate. Discounts and prices shown are not kept up to date: the reduction available now may be smaller, or may have ended, and prices may have changed.
