If you’re planning a meeting or incentive travel program for your group of 500 – 700 and exclusivity is a key element, nothing matches the impact of “owning” your own ship with a full ship charter. In May, Celebrity Cruises introduced an entirely new premium brand in response to the demand for more upscale and experiential cruises: Azamara Cruises.
The name “Azamara” is a coined term rooted in Romance language references to blue (“aza”) and the sea (“mar”), and a lesser-known word, “acamar”, which in Classical times was the southernmost bright star that could be seen from the latitude of Greece. How appropriate for this new brand launched as “a bright star on the deep blue sea”.
With a capacity of 710 passengers each, the Azamara Journey and Azamara Quest offer unparalleled pampering and prestige for corporate groups, with butler service and concierge-style amenities in every stateroom and suite. All staterooms feature plush European bedding and plasma TV’s; special touches include Evian water, daily fruit basket and fresh-cut flowers, as well as complimentary in-suite espresso and cappuccino. Your attendees will also enjoy exquisite dining and the exceptional personal service that comes with a guest to staff ratio better than 2:1.
Because of their small size, the two Azamara ships will give your guests access to exotic hidden corners of the word upclose and personal; and unique “off the beaten path” shore excursions promise once-in-a-lifetime experiences. And remember, with a full-ship charter, you have the opportunity to customize your cruise itinerary and day-to-day agenda for optimal ROI.
Azamara Journey and Azamara Quest also offer an enhanced emphasis on spa and relaxation, with treatments many of your guests will relish. Certain spa services are provided in the privacy of their rooms and both ships offer an outdoor spa relaxation lounge.
With unparalleled service standards and exotic destinations delivered in an intimate, sophisticated environment, your next corporate cruise on an Azamara ship is sure to be a success.
Select dates are still available for charter in 2008. For more information, rates and itineraries contact Marisela Guanch at mguanch@landrykling.com or call us at 800-448-9002.
