Reserve your cabin now. Lock today's price. Pay it off little by little, on your own schedule, before you ever set sail.
The Layaway Cruise is simple. You choose a sailing, a small deposit holds your cabin at today's price, and you pay the balance down in small amounts over the weeks and months before you sail. No credit check. No interest. No debt. It is your own money, set aside toward the sea, a little at a time.
We built it in 2014 for travellers who are more than able to enjoy a cruise, but would rather pay for it the way real households actually budget: steadily, on their own terms, without a loan and without a bank deciding who deserves a holiday.
A Cruise & Rail Travel original, created and trademarked in 2014 by Theon Alleyne, a Caribbean travel professional since 1993 and the founder of No USA Visa Travel.
A deposit, usually $100 to $500 per person depending on the sailing and cabin, books your cabin on a route that never touches a US port and locks the price you see today so it cannot climb while you save.
Pay the balance in installments, on a rhythm that suits you, across the weeks and months before departure. We offer payment plans on most cruises, and no interest is ever added.
Your balance is settled by the cruise line's final-payment date, usually 75 to 120 days before you sail. Then your booking is confirmed and the journey is yours, nothing owed.
“A deposit holds your cabin, and you pay the balance down before you sail.” The Layaway Cruise™ principle, unchanged since 2014
Deposits vary by cruise line and cabin, usually $100 to $500 per person, and luxury lines or suites may ask for around 10% of the fare. Both refundable and nonrefundable options exist. We always confirm the exact terms with you before you pay anything.
Sou-sou. Box-hand. Partner. Whatever your island calls it, our people have always put a little aside, faithfully, toward a goal worth reaching. The Layaway Cruise speaks that same language. It is not borrowing against a holiday you cannot yet afford. It is saving, with discipline and dignity, toward one you can.
Put down a little something each pay, and let the sea come to meet you.
We are reopening the Layaway Cruise for the No USA Visa Travel community. Leave your name and we will reach out first, with the sailings and the schedule, the moment it is ready. No payment now, nothing owed. Just your place in line.
Registering your interest places you on our Layaway Cruise list. It is not a booking, a deposit, or a payment, and it commits you to nothing. Final terms and sailings will be shared with you before anything is ever paid.
