We Are…

We are here to serve you…

The lifestyle and comfort you expect aboard your yacht is only as good as the personnel responsible for its operations, maintenance and service.

When hiring crew, from a laundry steward to a captain, confidence is key: you need the assurance that your vessel will operate and be maintained as well as – or better than – you could operate or maintain her yourself.

You need the certainty that your guests will be served and pampered to your highest expectations – and beyond.

For over 20 years through interviews conducted in the Head Office in Cebu City, Crew Asia’s hand-picked crewing personnel have provided this confidence to yacht owners throughout the world.

Quality is our By line…

All our personnel are carefully screened hand-picked professionals who have been chosen for their qualifications and experience. They are also endowed with the culturally-ingrained attitudes of loyalty and service. Interviews and cross referencing are done out of the Head Office in Cebu City.

Since 1992, Crew Asia, a POEA accredited Manning Agency has serviced the very top end of the yachting and mega-yachting community.

Today this Manning Agency deploys 600+ crew members aboard 220 yachts – from 40 meter sailing vessels to 162.5-meter mega-yachts worldwide.

As the luxurious mega yachts grow larger in size and more in number, so does Crew Asia’s client list.  Today more than 50 of the Company’s client-vessels rank amount the top 200 largest, most luxurious yachts in the world ranging from 65 meters to 162.5 meters as reported by Boat International.

Philippines Working to Attract More Cruise Ships

• April 25, 2024

As an emerging cruise destination in Asia, the Philippines is working to attract more cruise ships and cruise brands to its shores.

With 121 cruise calls and 140,000 passengers expected to arrive in 2024, the country is going after different niches of the global cruise market.

According to Paulo Benito Tugbang, director for product and market development at the Philippine Department of Tourism, the main focus is on expedition and luxury vessels, but there’s also potential for contemporary vessels and even homeporting operations.

“We are building interest from cruise ships, trying to attract ships from different segments because we really want everyone to discover that the Philippines has a lot to offer,” he told Cruise Industry News during an exclusive interview.

“In our experience, expedition cruises really like to visit exotic destinations and to be able to explore virgin islands and untouched nature,” he continued.

The Philippines is well suited for these kinds of activities, Tugbang explained, with several exotic ports of call to be discovered.

Another big market for the country comes from upscale cruise lines, he noted, with companies like Seabourn being frequent visitors.

“These brands also like to visit untouched places and really have a bespoke experience,” Tugbang explained.

According to Tugbang, the government recently had conversations with The Ritz-Carlton Yacht Collection to explore plans for future calls.

“Our strategy includes building up a portfolio that also features more mega-cruises, the big ships that are more family-friendly,” Tugbang explained.

With a year-round cruise season, the country offers various port options, he added, including eight that are regular cruise destinations.

The country is divided into three major island groups, and all of them currently being visited by cruise ships.

“Part of our strategy as one of the newer players in Southeast Asia is to ramp up our experiences, the things that we want to share with the cruise travelers,” he said.

The initiative includes showing the guests the country’s cultural assets, Tugbang explained, in addition to introducing new islands and destinations.

“We are strategically placed in the center of the Asia-Pacific region and offer a cultural mix of a lot of influences, which is an advantage,” he noted.

In the future, the Philippines could also serve as a homeport for cruise ships, with Manila being especially fit for the role, he added.

“Manila is our best bet. We have a new player coming to improve our airport and make it bigger and even more accessible,” Tugbang highlighted.

The government is also working to build additional airports across the country, improving accessibility to different islands.

Developing port infrastructure is part of the country’s plans as well, with a five-year investment plan already in the pipeline.

“Our Tourism Department is working along with our Philippines Ports Authority and our cruise ports in five major destinations to build cruise terminals,” he explained.

“It’s really a whole-government approach and effort to ramp up The Philippines’ role in Asia’s cruising playground, positioning ourselves as one of the best new destinations in the region,” he said

Home to 12 million, the capital of the Philippines is a dynamic city with a rich colonial history dating to 1565, when the Spanish arrived. Dive into the most popular attractions, including the elegant Malacanang Palace, the National Museum of the Philippines and Rizal Park. The poignant, 150-acre American Cemetery and Memorial holds U.S. and Allied servicemen who made the ultimate sacrifice during World War II. The historic walled city core, Intramuros, is well worth exploring.
