It’s not a joke. If you are willing to travel at the last minute, Imperial Majesty Cruise Line gives 3-day, 2-night cruises including meals and many amenities to lucky couples for free.
Forbes Magazine ran an article, How To Get Cool Stuff For Free last July. Amidst the list was the mention of free cruises. MSN Money ran a similar story in August entitled, 13 Things You Can Get for Free.
A visit to the Cruises4Free site reveals that you can be considered for a cruise by filling out a contact form, agreeing to allow the cruise line to telephone you, and agreeing to pay the port taxes, (about $60) if you are chosen.
