While online sites show attractive base prices, we at Doxsee Cruises provide value beyond just cost - one to one personalized service, 24/7 support during travel, expertise in resolving issues, and often exclusive amenities or rates.

Many times I can match online prices while providing superior service and protection.

GROUP TRAVEL ADVANTAGES

✅ Volume discounts (often 5-15% savings) ✅ Group amenities (welcome receptions, exclusive events) ✅ Flexible payment schedules ✅ Single point of contact for all travelers ✅ Coordination assistance (rooming lists, special requests) ✅ Group insurance options ✅ Emergency support during travel

HOW THE GROUP BOOKING PROCESS WORKS

Step 1: Planning Phase (6-18 months ahead)

Assess group needs and preferences

Research destinations and options

Secure preliminary group rates

Create booking timeline

Modern cruise ships have stabilizers that reduce motion significantly. Choose midship cabins on lower decks for least movement. Bring motion sickness remedies, consider acupressure bands, and book during calm weather seasons. Most people adjust within 1-2 days.

Doxsee Cruises essentially act as your travel advocate and problem-solver throughout your entire journey.

I always recommend travel insurance, which typically costs 4-10% of your trip cost. Cruise lines have varying cancellation policies - usually full refund until final payment (60-90 days), then penalties increase. I can explain each supplier's policy and help you choose refundable options when needed.
