Travel agent for a cruise?

[Anonymous]

Wondering if someone can recommend a travel agent equipped to find a deal on a cruise? We are a family of six requiring two cabins, so it's tough to search online (and ensure adjoining or adjacent cabins).

Op, do some preliminary research on your own to learn about the different cruise lines, their style, and their general price point. This is a match that needs to be made. If you aren't matched well, you aren't likely to be satisfied. If you work with a travel agent, and you don't know them already, they really won't know you. There are cruise review sites. If you have friends who cruise and have similar traveling styles, ask for what line they used. Then go shopping for a cruise agent. I great cruise agent may do a good job, but there are a lot of just good agents. Don't go in knowing nothing.

Thanks, pp. We've cruised disney, and I've done my research so I have some other lines in mind. I'm hoping someone who has worked with an agent who specializes in cruises will have a recommendation.
