We hope that you were able to join our hosted webinar yesterday and hear from our river cruise lines on their offerings for our event. If you were not able to make it, please find our webinar linked here and some additional FAQs posted from attendees.
Attendee Service Center Information:
When booking links are released via email, please only have ONE person complete your booking for Expo ship accommodations and/or post-cruises. ASTA will be cross-checking lists and duplicate bookings will be deleted.
If you are not logged into the Attendee Service Center, you will need to do so to complete your selection. Once logged in, you will need to select EDIT ACCOMMODATIONS and then do the same for post cruises as well.
For a step by step review, please tune back in to the end of our hosted webinar to hear more from Sarah Little on this process.
As a Reminder
- Once you make your cabin selection and save it to your ASTA registration, please assume you are confirmed.
- The cruise line you selected will be following up with you in November, after registration closes, to collect additional demographic details and payment.
- Remember, registration for both Expo accommodations and post-cruise FAMs close on October 25. Changes will not be accepted after this point.
- Cabins are booked on a first-come, first-served basis. When inventory sells out, please note additional accommodations are provided at the Hilton Vienna Waterfront.
- If you have a balance due, you MUST complete payment before you are able to secure any cabins. Please do so in advance of our launch.
