Faction Summary Legendary Hospitality Across Sirius
The Orbital Spa & Cruise story has its humble beginnings in 475 A.S, just before the Texas incident. Our founder, Tony Cortez, set up Orbital Spa & Cruise to cater to the multitude of travelers moving between the houses of Liberty and Bretonia. What started as a small luxury service pit stop eventually grew into the burgeoning resorts that criss-cross the landscape of beautiful Curacao.
In order to provide the very best to our clientele, Orbital Spa & Cruise eventually expanded to maintain its own shipping fleet. From those beginnings we began to branch out and offer passenger services as well as well as luxury cruises to those who wish to experience the grandest vistas in all of Sirius.
Despite our origins in Liberty, our company grew to become a household name in all of Sirius. We offer luxury ski resorts on Denver, hot spring resorts on Planet Baden Baden, striking vistas of the Poole system from Luxury Liner Shetland, views of the gas clouds of the Sigmas from Hawaii, and of course the crown jewel, the resort world of Curacao (along with rumors of trips to the liner Barbados by invitation only). From all corners of Sirius we offer the best in services to our clientele. Recently with the opening up of Gallia, Orbital Spa & Cruise plans to expand into this new market as well, competing with the hospitality companies of Gallia.
OS&C is divided into 4 subsidiary lines specializing in publicity (White Star Lines), excursions to the border worlds and beyond (Triton Expeditions), logistics (Orbital Network Express) and security (Spa-SEC).

Diplomacy Potential Friends and Partners
A more specific summary of our diplomacy can be found here on our information and feedback page. Essentially we follow OS&C's diplomacy. We are open to ad-hoc cooperation with legally questionable groups, but these are one off partnerships on a personal basis. We are not surprised to be working with a group one week on a particular project and being pirated by them the next. Only the Gaians, Enclave, and Nomads do we consider to be universally hostile to our interests.
Boundless Pleasure Event, a culmination of much inter-faction RP to have an introductory flight to Gallia, culminating in a memorable standoff in Hudson Current Trade Event to stockpile materials to repair the Curacao docking ring
