Please let us know if your group has any special requests such as a meeting place, group picture, private party arrangements, etc.

Group T-Shirts:Group T-shirts and other items may be distributed to your members only, prior to the cruise. No merchandise may be sold at Festival at Sea venues.

Terms and Conditions:Group Leaders are required to confirm their reservations with an application and deposit for the specific cabin category desired. Group Leaders are required to make monthly payments as outlined for their own reservation. Once you have reached the required number of group members for a complimentary passenger fare, you will be refunded the cruise fare only, based on the average category booked by your members. Group Leaders may upgrade their cabin category for an additional charge (if applicable). Reservations are taken on a first come, first served basis. No cabins will be held without a deposit from every passenger in the cabin. BE SURE THAT YOUR GROUP MEMBERS ARE AWARE OF THE PAYMENT POLICIES; PARTICULARLY THAT PAYMENTS ARE DUE EVERY 30 DAYS AND ARE NON-REFUNDABLE. Separate groups cannot be merged for any reason. Repeat passengers that were not members of your group in previous years can dine with your current group but do not count towards your incentive. Repeat passengers that originally sailed as members of your group may continue to be members of your current group. Repeat passengers may form their own groups. However, as a courtesy, please inform your previous Group Leader that you are forming a group of your own. Blue World Travel will keep track of your group by your name and number. You will be assigned a number by one of our reservation agents. Prior to sailing, we will send you a summary of the confirmed members in your group. We ask that Group Leaders also keep track of the names and number of members in their group. This will serve as a cross check.
