First up, you can use the code BFSAIL to save up to £300 on the cost of a Marella Cruise. Use the code to save up to £200 on short and mid-haul cruises, and £300 on long haul and transatlantic cruises.

You will need to be logged into your TUI account for the code to work. If you’ve not booked with TUI before, simply create an account to redeem the code.

The deal is valid on sailings between January 2026 to October 2027.

As ever with travel deals, it's important to keep in mind you'll have a better chance of snagging a cheaper fare if you're flexible on your travel times and dates.

Important: Don’t allow yourself to be taken in by the hype around Black Friday and be sucked into buying something you don’t need or can’t afford. Always do your own price comparisons to ensure you are getting the best deal possible.
