Cunard encourages trade to register places for 2018 ship visits

Cunard has revealed 10 dates for agents to visit its ships this year to give the trade a “first hand experience to share” with customers.

The line has encouraged agents to book quickly as places are limited for the events which run until December 15.

The ship visits, starting on August 3, will either have a special focus on the line’s premium Grills offering, the Transatlantic Crossing or Alaska voyages.

Cunard has doubled the number of places available this year to 700.

Announcing the dates, a Cunard statement read: “At Cunard, we know how important it is for you to see and experience the luxury of our offering so you have first-hand experience to share with your customers.”

Gary Anslow, Cunard’s UK sales director, previously told Travel Weekly that the line was making a “conscious effort” to set up agent visits to help boost trade sales.
