Annemarie Cassidy | Cruise Azul Travel

I’m Annemarie Cassidy, founder of Cruise Azul Travel and a Distinctive Voyages Host with Travel Leaders Network. I specialize in helping travelers explore the world in style—through luxury cruises, bespoke itineraries, and unforgettable experiences both at sea and on land.

Travel has always been a part of who I am. As the daughter of an airline pilot and a flight attendant, I grew up with a passport in hand and a deep love for global adventure. My first cruise was at age 10, and since then, I’ve journeyed across six continents—always seeking out the perfect balance of luxury, culture, and fun. Antarctica is still on my list, and I’m already planning how to get there!

As a Distinctive Voyages Host, I personally host select cruises that offer my clients exclusive amenities, private shore events, and a personalized touch that elevates every voyage. Whether you’re celebrating a milestone or simply ready to unwind somewhere extraordinary, I bring my personal of experiences and genuine passion to every trip I plan.

When I’m not traveling or curating dream vacations for others, you’ll often find me dancing—on a ballroom floor, at a beachside resort, or simply enjoying the rhythm of life on board a beautiful ship.

Let’s work together to make your next journey unforgettable.
