CRUISE WITH OXYGEN!

It’s about the Experiences!

Cruising with oxygen is a wonderful way to get out and see the world – once you are settled in your cabin, there is no more packing and unpacking until the day you leave. You can be as active as you want at the ports we visit or simply relax in a deck chair! There is a full medical infirmary on the ship in case of emergencies. Your friends and family are more than welcome to travel with us as we often have meetings just for caregivers.

You no longer have to worry about traveling with oxygen! The respiratory therapists at Cruise Planners/Get Up and GO2 escort our Sea Puffer group cruises with backup equipment. If you would like to go on an individual cruise, we are also able to book your trip and make all your medical and mobility arrangement

Thank Goodness for the Sea Puffers!
I have severe COPD and have been on oxygen 24/7 for 15 years. Among other feelings, I felt as though I would never travel again. Then I found this marvelous travel agency through The Pulmonary Paper called the Sea Puffers. It is run by two respiratory therapists – Celeste Belyea and Holly Marocchi.

My husband and I have met some marvelous folks on Sea Puffer cruises. Celeste and Holly run a few seminars during each trip which are very informative.

We all know we have gained some independence with the invention of the portable oxygen concentrators. Unfortunately, on my most recent cruise, my POC stopped working. Celeste and Holly loaned me as they bring many different POCs to try out and for emergency use. Now my husband and I never travel any other way! Thank Goodness for the Sea Puffers!

FAQs FOR CRUISIN' WITH SEAPUFFERS!

Thank you for visiting the Sea Puffers website. Do you have a question about Sea Puffers or our Group Trips? Please browse our Frequently Asked Questions to see if your questions have already been asked. If not, we are always happy to answer your questions about our trips and services.

Who are the Sea Puffers?

Celeste Belyea and Holly Marocchi are registered respiratory therapists who became travel agents. They have been escorting the Sea Puffers with their friends and families, on trips and cruises since 2003. Their goal is to ensure people know, that just because they may use oxygen, does not mean they can no longer travel and enjoy life!

Where do you travel?

The majority of trips we plan are cruises – You unpack once and get to wake up in a different city to explore. We often schedule group shore excursions but you are more than welcome to go off on your own. We are here for back up. We have traveled from Hawaii to Russia; Canada and the Caribbean and many, many places in between!

Is there any extra cost for traveling with the Sea Puffers?

None! We are part of Cruise Planners – a nationwide network of full-service travel agents that allows us to get you great pricing and perks for your trip. We are often able to lower your cruise fare when a new promotion comes out.
We arrange your flight to the port the day before the trip and send all necessary documentation for your oxygen equipment to the cruise and airlines. During the vacation, we get together and trade tips on living with lung disease and show off new oxygen equipment. If you need to rent oxygen or mobility equipment as scooters, we take care of those arrangements with reliable rental companies.

Can I travel with the Sea Puffers as a solo traveler?

Of course! Many of our travelers travel solo. If you need someone to push you in a wheelchair or help with daily activities however, your should bring along a helper as Celeste and Holly are unable to do so.

Can you help me on my own vacation?

Absolutely! We can take care of your travel, mobility and oxygen arrangements. Cruise Planners is an American Express travel agency which means you can also you credit card points to pay for your travel.
