Some Ideas for Groups:
We will help you get started with these easy to follow steps:
1. Pick a Ship and Itinerary - See how many people are interested in joining you. HINT: New ships
tend to attract the most takers.
2. Select a Month to Travel - Once you have a ship and itinerary and an initial group that's interested,
attempt to select a month that all can agree to travel. HINT: The best group deals are offered in
January, February, May, June, September, October and early November.
3. Contact STC Tours- Once you have an idea of how large your group will be initially and the month and
ship of sailing, contact Your Cruise Agents at (www.stctours.com 718-320-0011 and let us know that you
are interested in leading a new group cruise. We will explain the process to you and will contact your
creferred cruise Lines to obtain your official quote. After you receive your proposal, and checking with
your initial group members, it is full speed ahead! HINT: Being flexible in sailing date may mean a
better price and more amenities!
4. Promote your Group Cruise - Once you have your Cruise Planner Group started, we will create a
speical flyer for your group cruise listing all of the information about the cruise including prices and
booking information.
5. Remind Group Members to Send in Deposits - Once you have decided to reserve a new group, full
deposits for each cabin booked need to be made. Encourage your group members to send in their deposits
as soon as they have decided to cruise with the group.
6. Encourage Purchase of Travel Insurance - It's important to remember that there are penalties on a
group starting at 70 days prior to departure so please get your group to buy third party travel
insurance. We have recommendations. HINT: Third party insurance offers more comprehensive coverage
than your average cruise line package. Insurance is based on price per person of actual cruise fare & age.
7. Plan Some Fun - Plan some group activities during the curise, or make arrangements to go on some
shore excursions together.
8. Final Payment - Final payments will be due 3 months prior to travel date. Passengers that are
purchasing an air/sea package will have their transfers included from the airport to and from the ship.
HINT: For those that are booking their own air, transfers are available for purchase.
