In 1982, cruise veterans Joyce Landry and Jo Kling formed a business partnership that pioneered the concept of “meetings at sea”. Over the years, Landry & Kling, Inc. has provided hundreds of cruise solutions for corporate meetings and incentive groups, as well as dockside charters for global events, and other events at sea. Last fall Landry & Kling launched Seasite.com, the first online cruise platform for meeting and event planners. Now both companies are entering a new phase of growth and global expansion as we proudly welcome Mark Phillips as our new Chief Operating Officer.

Like our co-founders, Mark is a true visionary and accomplished executive leader. He was founding team member at StarCite where he most recently held the position of Managing Director/Vice President, International Markets. According to Jo Kling, “Mark’s track record with StarCite paves the way for Seasite’s strategic relationships with travel professionals around the world who want to add cruise venues…to reap the benefits and ROI of the underutilized cruise sector.”

“Mark has a reputation as an innovative leader,” adds Joyce Landry. “That, along with being extremely focused and strategic, are among his many attributes that will help take us to greater heights.”
