Swan Hellenic has announced the launch of its new Group Travel Programme.
*All details correct at time of publish (22 August 2025)
The new Group Travel Programme offers agents an additional commission of up to 4% while delivering outstanding value and guarantees.
With groups starting from just eight guests, travel agents can unlock a wide range of exclusive benefits, including protected pricing and flexible amenity options.
This makes the new programme perfect for everything from special celebrations, such as honeymoons, anniversaries, birthdays and family and friends’ reunions.
It’s also ideal for affinity travel tailored to the desires of alumni associations, cultural societies and professional networks, or photography, birdwatching, culinary travel and faith-based groups.
Corporate Events and Incentives are also richly supported, from training trips and reward programmes to leadership retreats – all in an exclusive, culturally rich environment equipped with full facilities.
Swan Hellenic’s luxury boutique ships accommodate just 152 or 192 guests, an intimate, private atmosphere is guaranteed.
Delving into the details of Swan Hellenic’s new Group Travel Programme, it’s clear that every aspect has been built with client satisfaction and travel agent earnings in mind.
Clients will enjoy a complete package, free of common additional costs. All meals, most drinks, tips, Wi-Fi and excursions are included. Many sailings also include group return transfers and pre-cruise hotel rooms.
In addition, flexible amenity points deliver extras ranging from onboard credit and private events to premium gifts.
With Swan Hellenic, a whole range of customisation options are also available to further elevate the experience, including special dinners, cocktail receptions and curated private group excursions.
All in all, clients are guaranteed a unique, transparent deal with no last-minute surprises.
Travel agents benefit from additional commission of 2% to 4%, a reduced tour leader threshold, and the peace of mind that no initial deposit is required to hold group space.
Plus, protected pricing ensures group bookings are managed consistently across all Swan Hellenic channels.
Advisors never have to worry that their clients will see lower prices elsewhere after committing to their booking. That both safeguards the travel agent’s client relationships and protects their earnings.
Business growth likewise benefits from real flexibility to customise perks to client needs, confident sales thanks to protected pricing, and full Business Development Manager support with sales tools, marketing co-op funds, marketing assistance and guidance.
Every group naturally also enjoys all Swan Hellenic’s signature inclusions, from elegant, fully-appointed staterooms, most with spacious balconies, to fine dining and beverages, expert-led excursions, onboard lectures, and inclusive tips and port taxes.
Carlos Garzon, V.P. of Global Sales, said:
“Our new Group Travel Programme is designed to be simple, flexible and rewarding for travel agents, while delivering the extraordinary experiences and enhancing the value for which Swan Hellenic is famous.
“This is about giving our partners the tools they need to create something truly memorable for their clients.”
The programme is available now for all 2025 to 2027 voyages.
