CruiseWave API - Cruise Deal Search Service
SYNOPSIS
<Python/><AWS Lambda/><DynamoDB/><RapidAPI/><Serverless/><API/><API Gateway/>
## DESCRIPTION
CruiseWave API is a comprehensive cruise deal search service built with Python and deployed on AWS Lambda. The API allows users to search Royal Caribbean cruises by departure port, destination, and date range, with support for multiple currencies and countries.
Version 2.0 introduced self-service metadata endpoints for programmatically accessing all 32+ departure ports and 14+ destination regions, along with a health monitoring endpoint. The API features 24-hour caching on metadata endpoints for optimal performance, absolute booking URLs for direct integration, and comprehensive error handling with request ID tracking.
Available on the RapidAPI marketplace with tiered rate limiting for different subscription plans.
