Now might be the time to look at Silversea. I posted this news article today where you can read the details.

The sample prices might look high, but don't compare them to typical mainstream cruises. For around $5000 a couple can have a 7 night Caribbean cruise which includes the cruise, air, drinks, tips, and a true luxury experience on a small ship. Add up what you'd pay on a typical cruise and the Silversea offer looks mighty tempting.

Thanks for posting the article, Dave.

In fact, all of the luxury cruise lines are making very attractive offers on their cruises. Regent, another all-inclusive cruise line, has many cruises where it is giving most of its shore excursions for free through 2010. They also have discounted prices and some air-inclusive deals.

Crystal is giving a $1000 per person onboard credit, to use as you wish. Crystal is not all-inclusive, but with that credit, you can pay for most of your drinks and shore excursions.

It's a great time to try one of the luxury cruise lines, now often priced the way premium cruises have been priced in the past.
