Group Leader Program Details

Definition of a “Group Leader”

An individual or entity that organizes and assembles a group of individuals who wish to register and reserve staterooms on a cruise ship as a “group” for any reason and is compensated accordingly. “Groups” are generally formed as a result of a common thread among the members.   

Purchase of a Cabin by a Group Leader

A Group Leader may only qualify individuals for his/her group after their own purchase of a cabin for the subject cruise.

Passenger List

Prior to solicitation, the group leader must provide StarVista LIVE with a list of names and addresses of prospective passengers. If a person on the list has sailed with StarVista LIVE within the last three years and is not a past group member of the Group Leader submitting the name, that name will not qualify. Once a prospective passenger is part of a group, he/she cannot then change groups nor may another group leader claim that prospective passenger.  A member of a group may start his/her own group and submit a list of new prospective passengers at any time.

Please note that it is the intention of StarVista LIVE to ensure that Group Leaders are properly rewarded for their efforts.  To that end, if a name has been cleared on the Group Leader’s list and appears on the manifest of the cruise, the Group Leader will be credited accordingly.  Failure of the passenger to complete his purchase disqualifies that passenger from inclusion in a Group. 

Future Cruises

As long as an individual is actively serving as a Group Leader for StarVista LIVE then said individual shall be compensated for passengers who continue to book with said Group Leader.

Terms and Conditions of Cabin Purchases

Passengers in any Group must fulfill all of the requirements of any person purchasing a cabin for a StarVista LIVE program, including payment in full. Such requirements are prominently displayed on the web sites of the respective cruises:

Failure to complete the requirements disqualifies the person as a passenger and their cabin will not be included in the total cabin calculation of the Group Leader.
