Florida-Caribbean Cruise Association (FCCA)

Preparations are in Place for Top Cruise Executives to Meet in Cozumel, Mexico

Pembroke Pines, FL (June 26, 2007) – Cozumel will host the Florida-Caribbean Cruise Association’s 14th Annual Caribbean Cruise Conference & Trade Show, October 8-12, 2007. The annual Conference and Trade Show is the premier industry event of the year where over 1000 cruise industry partners will come together with approximately 100 Cruise Executives from the FCCA member lines to meet with key players, analyze industry trends and discuss current issues.

Executives from the FCCA Member Lines will bring their expertise to a series of round table discussions that will focus on Marketing, Shore Excursions and Operations.

Delegates who would like a chance to meet with cruise executives on an individual basis can sign up for the Informal Breakout Sessions. These sessions will set aside time for a “one-on-one” meeting and provide the opportunity to further relationships. Sessions will be arranged and confirmed prior to the Conference.

Just for fun, tee-off with some the industry’s top executives in the 10th Annual Golf Tournament. Bid on cruise vacations at a fraction of the cost and mix and mingle with the Member Cruise Executives at the evening social functions and pre and post tours.

Resort Casual is the attire for this year’s event from conference business sessions to evening social events, including the opening ceremony which will take place Tuesday evening at Playa Mia.
