Costco sold an around-the-world cruise booking through Costco Travel for $293,000.

That revelation came Thursday when CFO Gary Millerchip provided some “fun facts” about the exclusive travel service for Costco members during the warehouse store’s first-quarter earnings conference call.

“Our largest cruise booking last year was a 150-day around-the-world cruise that departed from Fort Lauderdale and stopped in places like the Galapagos Islands and Easter Island,” he told analysts and investors.

According to Costco’s CFO, the owner’s suite cabin on the ship was booked for two people for the six-figure price.

“The total price was $293,000 for two people in the Owner’s Suite cabin and the additional benefits of the booking included a $13,000 onboard credit and the $25,000 Costco Shop Card,” he said.

The CFO did not provide any information about which cruise line operated the long vacation.

“We offer a wide range of vacation packages, car rentals, cruises, hotels, flights and other travel-related services,” Millerchip said on the conference call. “In addition to extremely competitive rates, many of our deals include a Costco Shop Card as additional value for booking at Costco.”

Consumers can use Costco Shop Cards to pay for a warehouse retailer membership and the various items Costco sells.

COSTCO’S “NETFLIX MOMENT” BIG WIN

Millerchip also noted during the call that members who use Costco Travel “spend approximately twice as much as members who do not use these services.”

Costco Travel also saw a staggering number of rental cars last year.

“Last year we sold enough rental cars to fill every U.S. Costco parking lot 8.5 times,” the executive reported.
