Cruise Lines & Fuel Surcharges

While most cruise lines nixed the extra fuel surcharges due to a decrease in gas prices, Cunard has once again reinstated it. I received an email from Cunard detailing their decision to increase the charges:

Due to the continued escalation of fuel prices, Cunard Line will increase our fuel supplement from $3.85 (USD) to $6.00 (USD) per person per day. This supplement will not exceed $200.00 per person, per voyage. The supplement applies to each paying guest travelling, including 3rd and 4th person fares and paid children's accomodations.

The new fuel supplement will apply to all new bookings made on or after 31 December 2010 for voyages departing on or after 14 April 2011.

We regret having to take this action, but as fuel prices continue to rise we now find it necessary to implement this additional supplement.

Thank you for your business and continuous support!


Hopefully, other cruise lines won't be too quick to follow!
