Bringing people together for a cruise is no small task—and we believe it should come with great rewards. When you organize a group cruise with us (8 or more cabins), you become the Group Leader, and that role comes with exclusive perks, support, and even the chance to cruise for free.
What Do You Get as a Group Cruise Leader?
Here are just some of the benefits that may be available to you when you lead a qualifying group cruise:
Complimentary Cabins
Many cruise lines offer 1 free cabin for every 8 to 16 cabins booked. If your group is large enough, you could cruise at no cost—or offer the free room to a VIP guest.
Onboard Credit
As the Group Leader, you may receive onboard spending money just for organizing the cruise. That’s extra to use on drinks, shore excursions, spa treatments, and more.
Dedicated Support
You’ll be paired with a Group Account Executive who will handle the details—so you don’t have to. They’ll help with:
- Cabin holds and room assignments
- Payment tracking and deadlines
- Group dining and event coordination
- Guest registration and personalized tools
Custom Marketing Tools
- To help you spread the word and keep your group on track, we’ll provide:
- A personalized registration website
- Custom flyers to share digitally or print
- An online portal where guests can sign up and pay individually
- Group-focused web conference for Q&A
- Optional travel insurance info and support
- Flexible payment plans and reduced deposit options
