Group Cruises
What's a group?
Book 8 cabins and you've got a group! Whether traveling as a family, an affinity group, attending a class reunion, wedding or business meeting - as long as your double occupancy cabin count is 8 or more, you're a group and entitled to extra cruise savings!
Why is a cruise a good choice for a group?
Groups and cruising are naturals together. There's simply no "destination" more perfect for a group gathering than a cruise ship! In a very real sense, every cruise is a group experience for every passenger - they all share their floating resort and itinerary! But there are other, very specific reasons to choose a cruise for your group function:
No matter the individual tastes within your group, there's plenty on the plate to please everybody. Only on a cruise will you find such easy access to such a wide choice in dining, entertainment, sports, spas, and activities. Plus, there are the new and different ports of call throughout your journey!
The onboard atmosphere of casual living, genuine friendliness and carefree adventure is unmatched by any landside resort anywhere in the world.
You'll save money! Because of the all-inclusive nature of a cruise (your transportation from port to port, your accommodations, your meals, entertainment and most activities) you'll probably spend less and get more from your event. Add in group savings and you've got a sure win with a cruise.
How much is the discount on a Group?
Savings can vary by cruise line and sailing. Generally, savings of 10% or more are typical, in addition to the normal applicable discount. Additional savings can often be realized through onboard credits, extra amenities or complimentary upgrades in accommodations. Plus, with a group cruise contract, we can lock in the rate for you while everyone signs up….you have a guaranteed rate. Our national buying power and strong relationships with all the major cruise lines mean that you will receive the best possible rate for your group. And you know what else? If a better rate is offered after you've locked in your group rate, we'll secure the savings and put the money back in your pocket. No worries!
Who actually organizes the group?
You supply the guest list and we'll take it from there. Your group can call us toll-free from all across North America. But accommodating a group cruise is not a one-time, one-call event - it's an ongoing venture that requires research, attention to detail and continual follow-up. Our Cruise Experts will be in close touch with you and the cruise line to be sure your group's unique needs are addressed.
