There are many wonderful reasons to vacation as a group. Cruise Planners, an American Express Travel Representative, makes it simple to plan these gatherings on any cruise, tour or all-inclusive resort of your choice. Virtually every Cruise Planners travel partner has a group program that offers special benefits. And to qualify for group rates and amenities as few as 16 people need to travel on the same itinerary.

  • Planning is easy. We handle the details (room assignments, payments, etc). Most travel companies even have a full time “group coordinator” to assist once you sail.
  • Enjoy perks, like group discounts and points that can earn your group onboard amenities.
  • Customize it! We can arrange private shore excursions, cocktail hours, meeting space, games or other activities, just for your group.
  • No payment headaches. Each person can pay individually, or as a group. 
  • Weddings or events? We offer destination weddings starting at $995 and events packages starting at $795 at many locations around the world. Our event managers will handle every aspect of your special event.

Example client who booked a cruise for the office:

A tax consulting firm had a record year.  To celebrate the win and invest in their culture, we helped them plan a cruise for the entire office.  On Royal Caribbean's Mariner of the Seas, rates started at just $425/person and spouses and cabin upgrades were available at the employees' cost.  We handled all the research, planning, booking, and changes, so that the office manager and general manager could have peace of mind to focus on their jobs.
