About

Meet Michael & Reed.

We started McKahn Cruises because the best cruise experiences we've had came from knowing the ships, and the clients we serve deserve that same insider knowledge, delivered personally.

Our story

A personal approach to cruise planning.

McKahn Cruises LLC is an independent cruise advisory owned by Michael McWhorter and Reed Kahn, and even the name is personal: McKahn blends our two last names, McWhorter and Kahn. We're not tied to one brand, and we keep things small on purpose: you get us directly, from the first conversation to the day you disembark.

We plan sailings across every major cruise line, but MSC Cruises, and the MSC Yacht Club in particular, is where our deepest expertise lies. Having sailed the enclave first-hand, we understand the nuances between ships, suite categories, and itineraries that turn a good Yacht Club trip into an exceptional one.

Through our affiliation with Avoya Travel, a well-established travel network, we have access to competitive pricing, exclusive promotions, and professional support behind the scenes, while you still get personal attention from people who actually know your trip.

Client stories

In their words

Michael & Reed put us in a Yacht Club suite we didn't know existed at a price that made sense. Butler, private pool, the works. We'll never cruise another way.
Dana & Robert K.MSC Seascape, Eastern Caribbean
Three generations, eleven people, zero stress. He handled connecting cabins, dining, and the excursions. Everyone still talks about it.
The Alvarez FamilyRoyal Caribbean, Western Caribbean
I'd booked online for years. Working with Michael and Reed, we got more perks and better cabins, and someone to call when our flight was delayed.
