Alaska Cruise Sale -- From $499 with $100 Shipboard Credit -- Book by January 30th and Save

Looking to make some travel plans for later in 2009? If you're thinking of an Alaskan cruise, Travelzoo has found a deal that may be worth checking.

Book by Friday, January 30th and you can find some amazing deals with CruCon's January Sail-a-bration Sale. They offer nice shipboard credits based on your cabin category and reduced deposit requirements.

All cruise lines and destinations are on sale, but Travelzoo highlighted the $499 offer on 7-night Alaska cruises aboard Norwegian Cruise Line (inside cabin). This includes $100 onboard credit (per cabin), double the credit that the cruise line itself is offering. And you can upgrade to oceanview cabins for about $100 more, and get a shipboard credit of $200!

These rates are available for departures in May, but prices have been reduced all the way through summer:
- $499 Norwegian Star sailing roundtrip Seattle
- $499 Norwegian Sun sailing roundtrip Vancouver
- $569 Norwegian Pearl (new ship) sailing roundtrip Seattle

Upgraded cabins are also discounted and the higher the level of cabin that you book, the more shipboard credit you get (up to $600 for a minisuite).
