Advantages of Meetings at Sea

There has been an explosion in the popularity of conducting business meetings and conferences at sea. The cruise lines have responded by building new ships with dedicated conference rooms and large theater conference rooms that rival the best hotels have to offer. The cost savings of a meeting at sea can be substantial in comparison to a like meeting at a land based facility. On a cruise ship the meals (all you can eat), AV equipment, meeting rooms, and entertainment are included in the cruise fare.

The decision to conduct a meeting or conference at sea on a cruise ship, the following are some questions a company needs to answer
1. What type of meeting, at sea or on land, will attract a larger target audience
2. What type of meeting will leave the participants more energized
3. Which type of meeting will provide the greater value to the company in helping them to attain the goals set out to be accomplish by this meeting
4. What type of meeting will have the greatest cost/benefit ratio for the company
