There is no better value than a Meeting at Sea….whether it’s corporate meetings, incentive meetings or seminars at sea.

Cruise lines have come to recognize the necessity to accommodate the needs of group meetings on cruise ships. Newer ships have been designed with expanded, easily accessible, dedicated meeting space. Whether your group consists of 25 or 500 participants, there are ample options on board to facilitate your group's meeting requirements. From conference rooms to boardrooms, from large lounges and theaters for awards presentations to small lounges and rooms for breakouts and cocktail parties on deck, the new cruise ships are designed for meetings at sea.

What's In It For The Meeting Planner? A More Successful Program with Far Less Work!

Organizing a group meeting at sea is extremely easy in the cruise environment. Due to their all-inclusive nature, cruises offer one stop shopping. There are no menus to plan, no airfare to arrange, no transfers to coordinate, no special activities to plan, no entertainment to locate; it's all included. Each ship has an on-board coordinator with whom we schedule meetings, audiovisual equipment and special events in advance of the sailing. Dining room schedules and seating can be pre-selected.

Gourmet Dining
Cruises offer multiple destinations, rather than one, relaxation for sunbathers, and good weather most of the time due to their ability to move and avoid storms. Cruises offer, guest lecturers, and lessons in gambling, wine tasting, painting, and photography. Seminars at sea in various fields and themed sailings are also available. Cruises can offer access to parts of the world which would otherwise be inaccessible other than by water. With a staff/guest ratio of one staff for every two guests, the service is unparalleled.

There’s Alaska the Mediterranean, the Greek Isle, the Baltic's, the Rhine, the Danube, and the Scandinavian Fiords. Winter months offer the coast of South or Central America and the Panama Canal.
