Windstar has launched an Early Bird Sale offering major discounts on four Mediterranean cruises in 2010. Savings of up to $2,375 are available on 7-night cruises onboard the luxury motor sailing yacht, Wind Star on bookings made by 28 February 2010.  In addition to discounted fares, cruise lovers will also receive a US$100 onboard credit per person, plus a gratuity package valued at US$84 if they pay in full six months in advance.
