ACBL Logistics
and Group Cruise
Specialists
At Vincent Vacations, we understand that planning a bridge group is about more than just booking staterooms. For duplicate bridge players, the game details are just as important as the destination. Most travel agents do not know the difference between a social game and a Sectional-rated tournament at sea. We do. Whether you are a club manager looking to take your players on a voyage or a group of friends wanting private table time, our Bridge Cruise specialists ensure the lighting, the logistics, and the ACBL sanctions are handled flawlessly.
Our bridge group experts possess the specific logistical authority required to run a successful game at sea. We know which ships feature dedicated, well-lit card rooms and which ones rely on dark, multi-use conference centers. We handle the complex paperwork for ACBL Sanctioning so your players can earn Masterpoints while they travel. From negotiating "Tour Conductor" credits to cover your Director's passage to arranging private cocktail parties for your group, we handle every detail. When you book your Bridge Cruise with Vincent Vacations, you get the leverage of a top-producing agency that knows exactly what card players need.
Booking your Bridge Group with us means your director can focus on the game, not the administration. Our knowledgeable Group Travel Advisors provide personalized support for contracts, deposits, and rooming lists. Let us handle the contracts, the sanctions, and the staterooms so you can focus on the cards.
To ensure your bridge cruise is perfectly planned, our advisors demonstrate the specific logistical authority required by the American Contract Bridge League (ACBL) and experienced group leaders.
The most critical capability a bridge agency can hold is the ability to facilitate the game officially.
Not all ships are bridge-friendly. We steer you toward vessels that respect the game.
We couple our bridge knowledge with the highest level of cruise industry certification.
As a proud member of the Signature Travel Network, we don't just book your bridge game—we enhance the entire travel experience. When you book your group with us, you gain access to a portfolio of privileged amenities that are not available to the general public or standard agencies.
Because of our collective buying power, we can often secure added value that makes the cost of the trip even more attractive to your players.
See how our logistical expertise made the difference for these groups.
"We almost booked a different ship that had converted its card room into a computer lab. Thank goodness for Vincent Vacations. They steered us to a ship that had a dedicated, enclosed card room with excellent lighting and square tables. It seems like a small detail, but for a week of duplicate bridge, it saved our trip."
"I was dreading the paperwork involved in getting our cruise sanctioned by the ACBL. The team at Vincent Vacations knew exactly what forms to file and when. They also handled the 'Tour Conductor' credits perfectly, which completely covered my travel costs as the Director. Professional from start to finish."
"Because of their Signature Travel Network status, our entire group arrived to find shipboard credits waiting in our accounts. We used the extra funds for a group dinner at the steakhouse. It was an unexpected bonus that made me look like a hero to my group members."

Contact Our Bridge Group SpecialistsBridge groups are unique. A standard travel agent might book you on a "fun ship," but we understand that for a duplicate bridge player, the lighting in the card room is just as important as the destination. Here is why serious bridge groups trust us to manage their logistics, Masterpoints, and amenities.
The most critical award a bridge agency can hold is the ability to navigate the American Contract Bridge League (ACBL). We do not just book cabins; we facilitate the game.
Not all ships are bridge-friendly. Many modern vessels have replaced dedicated card rooms with multi-use conference centers. We hold top-tier certifications with lines like Holland America, Cunard, and Crystal—lines known for maintaining proper bridge environments.
We are proud members of the Signature Travel Network, one of the travel industry's most respected consortia. This membership is more than a logo—it is a direct benefit to your bridge group.
While we handle the bridge details, our Signature status works in the background to elevate the travel experience:
Access to complimentary onboard credits, prepaid gratuities, or private cocktail receptions that are unavailable to the general public.
When something goes wrong, you are not just a passenger; you are a VIP client of a multi-billion dollar network. We resolve issues faster.
"We combine the logistical precision required for a bridge tournament with the luxury buying power of the Signature Travel Network."
Let us handle the contracts, the sanctions, and the staterooms so you can focus on the cards.
