The Only Cruise Event Specialists in the Hall of Fame

CLIA (Cruise Lines International Association) inducted Landry & Kling into the CLIA 2009 Hall of Fame in recognition of our pioneering role in the use of cruise ships as corporate meeting venues. Today, we are globally recognized as the premiere business-to-business resource for cruise meetings, group events at sea and ship charters.
