My family (5 adults) are planning to go on a carribean cruise at the later part of next year (any time after August). We were advised that the best time to go a carribean cruise is end of October/beginning of November. Is this true?
Also we would like a more casual cruise and have been told that Carnival is the best option. Again is this true?
I dont have definate dates yet (my husband is fixed holidays) so I cant really start planning.
We plan to fly from Glasgow to Florida and stay for a day or two, then cruise for a week and then spend 5 days in Orlando. We were told this would cost around £1,000 per person. Is this a realistic price??
Sorry for all the questions but as you may have noticed I've never been a cruise before.
Any information would be greatly appreciated.

Nov into early dec tends to be a bit cheaper but there is thanksgiving which can be more expensive.
NCL do cabins which sleep 5 and they are also casual so you could look at them as well as Carnival
The new ship Epic will be sailing then and 7 nights on that start at around £450 cruise only, a luxury suite for 5 will be closer to £1kpp.
Also look at cruise out of Port Canaveral this is more convenient for Orlando. NCL sun starts at around £320 booking through the US(£429 UK price) Carnival are around that price as well.

Do check out price through the US they are often much cheaper than the UK.

Take a look at Royal Caribbean's Freedom of the Seas from Port Canaveral (Orlando area).
She and her sister ships, Liberty and Independence of the seas are the largest ships afloat.'
They have everything you need for a super cruise..
October and early November are great times for Caribbean cruises, best prices and good weather. The same applies to the Orlando parks, the weather is not too hot but still great for sightseeing, and the parks won't be packed.

October is still hurricane season.
Hurricane season lasts from June to November, but ships sail full every year during those months without problem. The only way cruises are affected is if a storm makes landfall at the port of embarkation. If you are at sea they will take you well out of the way.
