Here's the inside track on this week's hand-picked Top 10 cruise deals!

First up is the iconic Cunard Queen Mary 2 — featured here sailing from New York to Southampton. Fresh out of the oven this morning comes a new price of £599pp — for a balcony stateroom! This price, as ever includes the flight to New York and transfer to the ship. Flights are available from London, Manchester, Birmingham and Edinburgh. Extra nights in NYC are available pre-cruise from £125 pppn.

Next is a great new deal, also fresh this morning. Again a great last minute offer for those looking to get some sunshine before the winter closes in. Sail to the Eastern Med from Southampton on P&O Cruises' Oceana from an amazing £799pp for 24 nights — £33 per night for all dining and entertainment in an ensuite cabin, is cheaper than any hotel you'll find!

Our exclusive MSC Lirica offer to Dubai and Abu Dhabi is next. The new exclusive offer of £679pp, which features a free upgrade to outside cabin for the first 50 bookers — plus there's no supplement for single travellers, which is rare! This offer is available on many November and December rates — and is £99pp extra if you want to go in Jan, Feb or March. Direct flights from London or Manchester are included.

Last chance to book this year's Christmas escape to the Canaries from London Tilbury — with less than 40 spaces left! £949pp for 14 nights over both Christmas and New Year — time to let someone else do the cooking?

Azamara is our next feature, with a Vietnam and Thailand offer for the New Year— free flights, hotel and transfers included in this one, plus we're upgrading all passengers to an oceanview. 16 nights from £2499pp, again with extra nights in Singapore or Hong Kong available.

We have another Far East exclusive, this time with Voyages of Discovery. Hong Kong, Japan and Manila, with a free outside upgrade — and being a discovery cruise, a series of fascinating lectures and workshops helping you get the most from this genuinely off the beaten track itinerary.

Another way to beat the January blues follows, with the Independence of the Seas. We're offering exclusively lower prices on the insides on this popular Canary Islands sailing, so can save on average an extra £100 per couple — now just £699pp for 12 nights!

Fred Olsen comes next with something new. We've added two cruises together to make an extra special and great value holiday. Here you sail south from Dover to France and Spain, then add on Belgium and Amsterdam instead of disembarking. 10 nights from an amazing £699pp.

As featured on Travelzoo, the next offer is a luxury Fjords cruise on Holland America. With this we've brought the price down, but are still piling on the benefits — seven nights from £649pp, in May next year, including a free outside upgrade, free parking and $50pp person to spend on drinks onboard! Sailing from Dover on 6 & 13 May.

Last but not least comes Grand Princess. This is another exclusive deal we're able to offer customers travelling down from outside Southampton, with a complimentary hotel night, pre-cruise and transfer to the port. The cruise is to Belgium and Scandinavia for seven nights in June and starts at £799pp.

Happy cruising.
