Ease of Booking:  

Patrons can book a cruise in three trouble–free steps at Cruise.com; this is simpler than any other service we reviewed.

After choosing a cabin, pictures and floor plans of the room and deck will let you see exactly what you can expect.

After booking is complete, Cruise.com displays a cruise package summary that you can review to make sure the information and reservations are correct.

Help/Support:  

Cruise.com offers a broad FAQs section for quick access to answers and two toll–free customer service numbers. One number is to reach cruise experts and the other is to reach after-sale service representatives. Cruise.com's customer service is open seven days a week, with hours Monday through Friday from 8 a.m. to 12 p.m. EST, and Saturday and Sunday from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. EST. We were disappointed that Cruise.com didn't offer email or live chat.
