CLIA UK & Ireland has released information about its ‘Summer of Opportunity’ initiatives, which will offer agents the chance to enjoy ship visits, sales training and product development with events taking place in six different ports around the country.
The first event is a Cruise Sales Masterclass on board Celebrity Eclipse in Dover on 6 June. This is followed on 21 July by a Discovery Expo in Portsmouth on board Swan Hellenic’s Minerva and then on 23 July, a Cruise Sales Masterclass in Liverpool on board Princess Cruises’ Caribbean Princess.
A luxury Cruise Expo is planned in Southampton on 14 & 15 August on board Regent Seven Seas Cruises’ Seven Seas Voyager together with Oceania Cruises’ Marina.
The following day, a Cruise Sales Masterclass is taking place in Newcastle upon Tyne on board Holland America Lines’ Koningsdam which is being launched in April. This will be the ship’s first visit to the UK.
“These events are designed to provide travel agents with hands on product training and knowledge and I am delighted with the line-up of ships which covers the luxury, premium and discovery sectors,“ said Andy Harmer, CLIA Europe VP Operations. “We are committed to supporting our members with excellent training and inspirational events and I believe this ‘summer of opportunity’ will help agents increase their business and knowledge which is key to increasing sales.”
