inGroup International LLC, the parent company of cruise subscription club inCruises, announced on July 20, 2026, the completion of a planned leadership transition that began in late 2024. Effective July 15, 2026, Frank J. Codina concluded his service as Co-Manager, stepping down from his role as Co-Chief Executive Officer as part of a carefully orchestrated succession process.
Anthony Varvaro, who has served as the company's Chief Operating Officer and Chief Financial Officer since 2022, has now assumed the additional role of Co-Manager. He joins CEO and Founder Michael “Hutch” Hutchison, who will also serve as Executive Chairman. This leadership structure is designed to ensure continuity and position the company for its next phase of growth, with a focus on strong governance and operational excellence.
“Frank contributed meaningfully to our company’s growth over the past decade, and we are grateful for the role he played in helping build our business,” said Michael Hutchison. “We wish him every success in this next chapter of his professional journey.”
Mr. Codina has also recently accepted an appointment to the Board of Directors of the Miami Dade College Foundation, one of Florida’s leading higher education foundations. The Foundation manages more than $250 million and grants millions annually in scholarships and student success initiatives that benefit more than 18,000 students each year. It supports Miami Dade College, the largest college in the US by undergraduate enrollment, which awards more associate degrees than any other college in the nation and has one of the most ethnically diverse student populations, with students from 167 countries across eight campuses.
This transition completes a thoughtfully planned succession process designed to ensure continuity of leadership while positioning the Company for its next phase of growth. Under its strengthened governance structure, inGroup International remains focused on serving its global community of Members, Partners, employees, and business partners.
