SEATTLE, June 17, 2020 – Seabourn, the world’s finest ultra-luxury travel experience, is focused on helping travel advisors find new opportunities for travelers and has therefore enhanced the brand’s small group pricing on select sailings, locking in fares that have been reduced since product launch. The updated policy applies to standard group contracted pricing on Seabourn’s 2021 summer programs in Alaska/British Columbia, the Mediterranean, and Northern Europe.
Standard groups set-up prior to the contracted rate reductions have been automatically updated to the newly reduced contracted fares so there is no need to request any adjustments.
In addition, group policies start at five suites and the brand is offering even more for small groups that are set up before July 31, 2020, including eligibility for Seabourn’s 4% Bonus Commission offer. Groups set up by the deadline will also be eligible for the Group Amenity Program Shipboard Credit and Bonus Commission amenities to combine when groups achieve their minimum tour conductor credit.
“Right now we realize there are small groups out there intent on finding ways to travel together, whether that’s extended families, groups of friends, affinity groups, and many others,” said Chris Austin, senior vice president of Global Marketing & Sales for Seabourn. “We want to make Seabourn their first choice for that shared experience in a spacious onboard environment that will take care of their needs against the backdrop of destinations that will create memories they will talk about for years to come.”
All group offers and benefits are also available with the line’s Sensational Suite Savings valid through July 31, 2020, which offers 50% reduced deposits and savings on a selection of suite accommodations and exceptional amenities, including veranda suite upgrades, shipboard credits up to US$2,000 per suite, air credits up to AU$1200 per person, Internet packages and more.
The four percent bonus commission applies only to new bookings for select 2021 sailings in Alaska/British Columbia, Europe, and Canada/New England and is not valid on voyages on Seabourn Venture.

For small groups who choose an applicable voyage, Seabourn is also offering 10% Early Bonus Savings to clients for those individual bookings paid in full by July 31, 2020, which also helps travel advisors earn commissions now rather than later when the booking is fully paid. These offers are stackable, adding up to significant value for the client and travel advisor.
The Charter, Groups & Incentives team at Seabourn is always available to discuss the possibilities of amazing travel experiences for groups ranging from five suites to full ship charters sailing itineraries crafted specifically to the client’s needs. More details can be found on the Seabourn website.
