Sounds like they are hurting a bit, which is good for you. That $465 for three nights, well of course it's per person for each of two, so it's F$930.

Are you traveling alone?? If so, it will be a lot more than F$465 for you, and not sure how that affects the freebie later on.

Whenever you are offered a freebie---or any large discount--in the S. Pacific, ALWAYS check the fine print! There may be limitations on dates it can be used, may need to be booked a few months in advance, or, conversely, may NOT be allowed to be booked until two weeks before travel (kind of like standby, etc.).

You may be able to get a package that includes the flights for a price that would be less than the flights and cruise separately. So, do a bit of homework, but it sounds like a good deal if you can use it and no strings attached.

Isnt Blue Lagoon part of the Accor group and thus secure financially?

I spoke to a couple of people in Nadi who had done a blue lagoon cruise- they said it was beautiful (they were a bit queasy though!!).
