About our Company
They say Atlantic sailors in the 1800s had a rule for their friends and family each time they left shore— never say goodbye. It was a practice meant to inspire good luck: no goodbyes meant a swift, safe return. No Goodbyes at the LINE DC extends that sentiment to all travelers. No matter what journey you're on— we hope to see you again soon.
