Who do you call?

What do you do when you have 60 guests booked for Hong Kong’s premier Harbour Cruise for champagne and cocktails to view the fabulous City of Lights laser and light show, and suddenly the Cruise Operator cancels because of torrential rain and thunderstorms?
You make sure your Destination Management Company is THE DMC.
THE DMC recently had exactly that happen. They had 60 guests from a South African bank an hour away from boarding the coaches to take them to board a private junk for Harbour Cruise and Cocktails when the skies opened, a Weather Alert was issued and all harbour cruises were cancelled.
What to do?
A couple of fast phone calls and the coaches were re-routed to Quarterdeck on the Wanchai waterfront. DJ’s were dispatched, staff mobilized and THE DMC’s guests found themselves at one of Hong Kong’s top harbour-side restaurants , champagne and cocktails flowing and, once the rain stopped, overlooking the sparkling lights of Victoria Harbour where they danced the night away.
