Ultra-Luxury Ocean Cruising
Seabourn Military & Veteran Discount
Seabourn is one of the most inclusive small-ship lines at sea. Here is how military families and veterans can sail it for less, and what the fare already covers.
Quick Answer
Seabourn does not publish its own military or veteran discount. The Seabourn military discount from Military Cruise Deals takes at least 5% off the cruise fare, applied to Seabourn's lowest available price and stacked on top of whatever promotion Seabourn is running. Active duty, retirees, all veterans, military and veteran spouses, and the family and friends traveling with them all qualify.

How the Seabourn military discount works
Seabourn does not offer a military fare of its own, so the savings come from us. Since 2001, Military Cruise Deals has taken at least 5% off the cruise fare for military households. We start from the lowest price Seabourn is showing for your suite, apply Seabourn's current promotion, and then take our discount off on top. You never have to choose between a Seabourn sale and a military rate.
The discount applies to the cruise fare itself. Taxes, port fees, and airfare are not discounted. On select sailings we can also add onboard credit or other amenities, and because we belong to several large travel consortia, many Seabourn voyages carry extra perks layered on top of everything else.
Who is eligible
Eligibility is broad on purpose. If you served, or you are married to someone who did, you are covered, and so are the people you travel with.
- Active duty service members in any branch
- Military retirees and all veterans
- Military and veteran spouses, including surviving and divorced spouses
- Family and friends traveling with an eligible guest, even in separate suites
What a Seabourn fare already includes
Seabourn sits in the all-inclusive tier of luxury cruising, which is why a percentage off the fare goes a long way. Every suite faces the ocean, most have a private veranda, and the ships are small enough that the crew learns your name quickly. Seabourn's crew-to-guest ratio is among the highest at sea.
Inclusions vary somewhat by voyage, but a typical Seabourn fare covers the following:
- Fine wines and premium spirits throughout the ship
- An in-suite bar stocked to your preferences
- Dining in all of the ship's restaurants with no specialty surcharges
- Complimentary Wi-Fi
- Gratuities, with no tipping required or expected
- Seabourn Conversations, a guest speaker series with experts on board
Ships and destinations
Seabourn sails to all seven continents. Its ocean ships, including Seabourn Ovation and Seabourn Encore, cover the Caribbean, the Mediterranean and Northern Europe, Alaska, Asia, and South America. Itineraries tend to favor smaller ports that larger ships cannot reach.
For expedition travel, Seabourn Venture and Seabourn Pursuit are purpose-built Polar Class 6 ships with an onboard expedition team of naturalists and scientists. They sail to Antarctica, the Arctic, and other remote regions, with Zodiac landings and guided outings included. Our military discount applies to these expedition voyages as well.
