• $300 off the total fare of your future sailing AND 
• $300 or $600 in onboard credit sailor loot to spend on your next vacation

Is it combinable with other discounts and promos?

Yes! 

Does the MNVV booking go directly to your travel agent?

Sure does! Once you've made your place holder onboard, the booking will come right over to me to take care of.

What is loot? What can I use it on? 

Most onboard items!
