Just in from The West Australian, Silversea Cruises has announced aggressive savings for a number of its upcoming Alaska cruises.

The cruise line is offering an onboard spending credit of $774 per person–a full $1549 per couple–for its May and September sailings on its Silver Shadow ship.

The promotion can be applied to shore excursions, spa treatments, and a host of other amenities.

Why the credit and not an outright discount on the price of the cruise?

The logic is that the super luxury cruise lines such as Silversea Cruises want to make sure they are not tarnishing their brand.  With their premium cruises and prices, the last thing they want is to be viewed as a discount cruise line!

One thing is for certain, anyone shopping for discount Alaska cruises should consider these two departures on Silversea Cruises to make their trip far more affordable.

This year marks the 50th anniversary of Alaska’s statehood, and Cruise West has some phenomenal Alaska cruise deals and itineraries on offer to celebrate.

Cruise West began offering cruises in Alaska in 1973, and has risen to become one of the premier small ship Alaska cruise lines.  Their ships carry no more than 140 guests, ensuring an intimate experience and allowing them to get up close and personal to the glaciers that are the highlight of any Alaska cruise itinerary.

Cruise West has arranged to bring on board a great lineup of special guests on select itineraries, including Vic Fisher and Jack Coghill, both of whom signed the original Alaska statehood document in 1959.  Also featured are former Governor of Alaska Tony Knowles and Dick Mackey, the very first Iditarod dog sled racing champion.

Food lovers won’t be disappointed either, as Cruise West has gone all out to ensure they provide the best of local Alaskan cuisine.  Breakfasts will include local berries and birch tree syrup, sure to give maple syrup lovers a new taste experience.  Of course, no Alaskan cruise would be complete without seafood, and the state’s world famous salmon, black cod, halibut and crab will be in abundant supply.

To make things even more attractive, Cruise West is offering an additional $50 onboard credit for anyone celebrating a 50th birthday or wedding anniversary.  If you can book early you can take advantage of some great discounts that bring starting prices down to just $999 per person.

As reported by USA Today, both luxury and discount Alaskan cruise lines have been sharpening their pencils to put together some great deals and discounts for anyone planning an Alaskan cruise in 2009.

How does $399 per person, per week on Norwegian Cruise Line strike you? Or if you’ve had your eye on a luxury Alaskan cruise, how about a week long trip for as little at $500 per person on Celebrity Cruises? Packages that include both a cruise and an add-on land tour are even more heavily discounted.

It looks like 2009 is shaping up to be the year of some fantastic Alaska cruise deals.
