With Omicron and waiting for my booster shot in mid January, I like you am wondering if now is a good time to book for a spring vacation. I have been watching the various cruise and packages sites to look for sales but in Canada, you need to wait for the boxing week sales which start next week, Usually I receive an Air Canada promotion for at least 20% off their flights which is helpful for European flights.
The cruise lines seem to be increasing versus decreasing rates especially on balconies. I guess the few of us booking want fresh air at least.
My recommendations for Canadian Solos
1. Wait for the boxing day sales
2. Get your booster shot as soon as you can as I suspect the new norm for travel next year will be fully vaccinated requires the first 2 vaccines plus a booster
3. Get trip cancellation insurance (for any reason) as I have noticed that the cruiselines, airlines are not as kind and are charging hefty surcharges for cancellable trips. Note check which is cheaper, the insurance or the surcharge.
4. Check multiple sites as I have noticed price differences between booking sites, which wasn't happening as much before COVID.
Hope this helps. I will be sharing the best deals next week. Happy Holidays
Marcia
