FAQs

What does marine travel management involve?

Marine travel management is a specialised service focused on the unique demands of the maritime and offshore sectors. It goes beyond standard business travel, covering everything from crew change logistics and seafarer transport to last-minute itinerary changes, visa requirements, and port-specific travel rules.

At ACE Travel Management ATG UK, our marine travel services include coordinating bookings, managing cancellations, securing specialist marine fares, and providing traveller safety through real-time monitoring. The aim is to deliver seamless offshore travel management that keeps costs down while ensuring your crews arrive safely and on time

How can ACE Travel Management ATG UK help with marine travel?

A dedicated marine travel agency like ACE provides expertise that generalist agencies cannot. We understand crew rotation schedules, the pressure of tight deadlines when ships dock, and the complexity of handling multiple crews at once.

By leveraging our industry knowledge and global network, we secure access to the best marine travel company fares and ensure your people get where they need to be, even when plans change suddenly. This allows shipping companies, offshore energy providers, and cruise operators to focus on their operations rather than travel admin.

What are the benefits of using specialist marine travel management services?

Partnering with a specialist marine travel company offers multiple benefits. Firstly, you gain access to competitive offshore and marine fares that are not available to the public, reducing your overall travel spend.

Secondly, you benefit from 24/7 support, ensuring your crews can travel safely regardless of time zones or unexpected disruptions. Thirdly, we provide advanced reporting systems that give you complete oversight of travel costs, helping you build efficiencies across your business. Above all, by working with a marine travel specialist, you can trust that your unique challenges are understood and managed by experts who know the maritime sector inside out.

How does ACE Travel Management reduce travel costs?

We use our membership in the ATG global network to negotiate exceptional marine fares on behalf of our clients. Combined with innovative ticketing systems, this means we can reduce costs across all fare classes.

Our transparent reporting allows businesses to see exactly where their money is going, while our ability to manage last-minute changes and rerouting prevents unnecessary spend. Whether you’re running a commercial fleet or a passenger cruise operation, our marine travel services are designed to balance cost efficiency with reliability and safety.

What technology does ACE Travel Management use for marine travel?

We use a cutting-edge technology suite that includes travel booking systems, real-time reporting, and a traveller dashboard. Our digital tools automate operations, provide detailed insights, and ensure you have up-to-date information on travel policies and bookings, enhancing overall efficiency and safety.

​​Can ACE Travel Management ATG UK support cruise companies, naval fleets, and offshore energy businesses?

Absolutely. We can work with B2B clients across the entire maritime spectrum, including commercial shipping lines, naval operations, offshore oil and gas providers, renewable energy companies, cruise liners, and yacht operators. Each of these industries faces unique challenges — from managing large-scale crew changes to supporting extended offshore deployments — and our role as a trusted marine travel agency is to tailor solutions to fit those needs. By drawing on decades of experience, we provide reliable offshore travel management that allows your organisation to run smoothly.

How does ACE Travel Management ensure traveller safety?

Our comprehensive duty-of-care systems are designed to protect seafarers and offshore workers at every stage of their journey. This includes advanced traveller monitoring technology, real-time crisis management tools, and a 24-hour emergency contact line. Our consultants are trained to respond to unexpected events, from flight cancellations to geopolitical risks, ensuring your crews are supported at all times. By combining technology with human expertise, we deliver marine travel solutions that prioritise the safety and wellbeing of your people.

Do you provide tailored solutions for different types of marine companies?

Yes. No two marine organisations are alike, and that’s why our marine travel specialists build tailored solutions based on your operational needs. For example, a cruise line may require large-scale seasonal crew deployments, while an offshore drilling company might need last-minute flights to remote locations. We take the time to understand your business and design a marine travel programme that creates cost-efficiencies, ensures compliance, and delivers long-term value.
