As a planner, you're tasked with staying on top of vendors, budgets, logistics, and ensuring your people show up engaged, often all at once. A ship is built to take care of all four before your group boards.
Operational Simplicity. Corporate events often require separate contracts for catering, AV, decor and entertainment across multiple companies. Ships function as self-sufficient venues designed to be operationally efficient. One crew handles every aspect of your program, so there’s no need to coordinate between several vendors.
Destination Variety. Your group can experience multiple destinations within a single trip, different ports, new cultures, and varying backdrops, without additional transfers or repacked bags.
Cost Predictability. There are no F&B minimums and AV equipment comes with no charge. Some cruise lines require their own technicians, which come with a minimal fee, but you're never charged to rent the equipment itself.
Attendee Engagement. When your attendees are together on a ship for several days without outside distractions, engagement increases significantly.
We work with every line in every tier. The below six categories are where the conversation begins.
These ships offer the widest range of onboard activities, dining and entertainment with constant energy and something happening every hour. A strong fit for groups who want variety and scale above all else.
Premium class vessels put a larger emphasis on ship design and a stronger focus on the culinary experience. Several lines also cater to adult travelers, with quieter public spaces and enrichment programming.
Service that is designed to anticipate what a guest needs before they ask with some of the highest staff-to-guest ratios in cruising. Everything from dining to daily activities is shaped around the individual. Nearly every stateroom is a suite, giving each guest the space and privacy that level of attention requires.
Several of these ships are true sailing vessels, with masts, rigging and functioning sails providing an experience closer to yachting than cruising. Many also have a marina platform at the stern, putting kayaks, paddleboards, and other water access just steps from your cabin.
Purpose-built ships for the most exotic, intimate and hard-to-reach destinations on earth that guests will remember for a lifetime. Onboard, naturalists, historians and scientists lead daily lectures and excursions, turning each stop into something closer to a once in a lifetime expedition than a scheduled port call.
These ships are built to pass through locks, sail under low bridges, and navigate rivers that run straight through the heart of a country. With daily ports, guests step off the gangway directly into the center of town.

There are two ways to book a ship for your program, group space or a full charter. Branding, operational control, and itineraries work differently depending on which you choose.
A block of cabins on a sailing that also carries other guests, following the ship’s existing itinerary. You can grow and shrink your program as needed. Exclusivity here isn’t about owning the whole ship, it’s about owning key moments. Private venue buyouts, group excursions, receptions, and small touches like branded keycards or signage help your group recognize each other and feel connected.
With a charter, the ship becomes yours to shape, down to the smallest detail. Branding can extend across the entire vessel, from logos at the bottom of a pool to a Formula 1 car airlifted onto the sundeck. Itineraries can be built around your program, an overnight at the embarkation port turns the ship into your group’s hotel before the sailing. When clients bring in their own musicians and performers, the night belongs to your event.
