Dear Mr. Sterling,

On behalf of the more than 1,000 employees at Vacations To Go, I'd like to start by wishing you a Merry Christmas, a Happy Hanukkah and a joyous holiday season. Please note that our office will close early on Christmas Eve and will remain closed on Christmas Day. We will resume our normal hours on Thursday, December 26.

If you are fortunate enough to be cruising this week, you might want to check out my personal tribute to Clement Clarke Moore's 'Twas the Night Before Christmas, so you'll know just what to expect.

Cruises are a popular choice for corporate meetings and events because they offer great value to businesses, participants and employees.

Typically, the price of a cruise ticket includes your stateroom, transportation between exotic ports, most meals, entertainment and a variety of unique onboard amenities depending on the ship. Onboard, meeting space and audio/visual equipment can be tens of thousands of dollars less than a conventional hotel or resort.

Here are some examples of amenities that have little to no cost on cruises:
  • Access to business facilities and meeting rooms
  • Large and small conference rooms
  • Digital projectors, audio systems and high-speed internet access
  • Showrooms for group presentations
  • Informal gathering venues
Vacations To Go's Group Department specializes in creating group travel experiences, taking all the work off of your company's meeting planner. For more than 35 years, our experts have assisted countless organizations -- from small companies to large corporations -- in planning seamless events at sea.

Your company will have a dedicated expert as a single point of contact who will assist with the entire process, including setting up a personalized registration website for fast and easy online registration and booking.

Lastly, as an added benefit, Vacations To Go can provide a Host or Hostess to accompany your group onboard. From the beginning of your trip to the end, the host will assist with logistics such as air travel and transfers to and from the pier, facilitate meetings and activities including team building and entertaining group games, resolve issues that may arise on board, and serve as your advocate with vendors.

For inquiries, give us a call at 800-514-9986 or visit our Meetings at Sea or Incentive Cruises page.
