Cruise Groups: Group Travel With Friends, Family or Associates
We can assist you in coordinating your cruise group travel at the most preferential rates and benefits for you and your cruise groups. Whether for women travel groups, family, or business colleagues, we will handle all the particulars. Better still, put your own cruise group together and you can cruise free! TravelStore has arranged cruise groups from as few as eight persons to over 1,000.
If you wish to put together a cruise group, you will want to work with one of our cruise group specialists to coordinate the arrangements, handle payments, stateroom and dining assignments, and ensure you receive the best benefits for your cruise group travel participants.
What constitutes a cruise group?
Any number of guests can consitute a group. However, additional amenities can be earned when your group is a certain size. To qualify for these amenities, the number of cruise group passengers required varies among cruise lines. Usually a group is 15 or more persons traveling together. But with some cruise lines, and to certain destinations, it can be fewer.
What are the advantages of a cruise group?
We negotiate directly with the cruise line to secure the best value for your group guests. Because we are one of the larger national retailers for cruises, we rely on our strong relationships to secure the best rates and group amenities possible. Plus, on many cruises, we offer
exclusive amenities.
With some cruise lines, pricing is not very negotiable, while with other cruise lines it is. We specialize in arranging the cruise vacation that can extend the best overall arrangements to meet the needs of you and your group. If required, we can also arrange the
best air fare, as cruise lines often do not have competitive air pricing, as well as
shoreside excursions that are exclusive for your group, or
pre- or post-cruise extentions.
For larger groups, advantages can include a
complimentary cruise beth(s),
complimentary cocktail party for your group, possible upgrades in staterooms, complimentary bottle of champagne or wine in the stateroom, group dining arrangements if desired, and other amenities.
Families & other types of groups
Multi-generational
family cruise vacations are popular, and an extended family makes a great cruise group. To qualify for group amenities, however, note that children sharing a stateroom with two adults do not usually qualify toward earning bonus group amenities.
A group can also be a club or organization, like a womens travel group, a fund-raising opportunity for an organization, a group of friends such as a girl's getaway, a company incentive, or a trip combining vacation with business, with meetings or seminars onboard. There's no end to the possibilities.
If you are a registered non-profit organization, contact us about coordinating a cruise promotion for your organization as a fund-raiser.
