Your officers and crew work tirelessly to deliver the best vacation experience for your guests. Provide them with a benefits package that keeps them fit and healthy so they can keep giving their best. Our team specializes in the cruise industry and has extensive insight into which benefits are offered throughout the industry and are most appreciated by officers and crew. Based on your budget, requirements, and goals, we’ll craft a benefits strategy that rewards current officers and crew for their efforts and attracts new members to your team. We’ll also create a communication strategy so that crew members are more aware of their benefits and appreciate and value the package they receive. Once the plan is in place, we’ll be available to answer questions about the policy in clear-cut language so that members understand their coverage. Our overall goal is to remove the burden of benefits administration from you so you can focus on your crew.

As the cruise industry expands and looks to fill thousands of positions over the coming years, employers looking for a competitive edge include Crew Benefits in their overall compensation package. If you’re not already offering benefits or are unsure how to expand your benefit offerings, we’re here to help! Benefits, advice, and services can include:

• Medical, Dental and Vision, and Dependent coverage

• Vacation Medical insurance

• Disability and Accidental Death

• Life insurance

• Customized Retirement Savings and Loyalty programs

• Crew Claims handling

If you currently offer benefits, consider extending benefits to another employee group or including medical coverage for dependents. Various strategies are available to help lessen the impact on budgets, and we can help develop a short and long-term strategic plan to ensure you achieve all your benefits goals. This strategy, which includes a budget, timeline, and communication plan, will allow you to continue to attract and retain your top-notch officers and crew and stay ahead of the competition while ensuring the health and well-being of your seafarers.
