Full-Ship Charters—Our Specialty
A key Landry & Kling strength is our ship charter experience. We’ve chartered ships of every imaginable size for corporate programs, sporting events, city-wide conventions – even disaster relief. Our experienced team is familiar with the planning required for a wide variety of cruise ships, yachts and river-vessels, giving you the benefit of all that’s been learned on prior programs. We’ve contracted charters with over 26 different cruise lines and over 75 different ships - a track record that’s second to none. “Landry & Kling was the invisible force that brought it all together.” —Beverly Kahn, National Secretariat, 5th Summit of the Americas
