Creative Cruising recently hosted the highly anticipated Cruise Spirit Retreat at the iconic Uluru. The event brought together travel agents for three days of immersive cruise content with masterclasses focused on Expedition and Antarctica, as well as luxury cruising.
Agents had the unique opportunity to learn from industry experts representing renowned cruise lines including Quark Expeditions, Ponant, Silversea, Regent Seven Seas, Tauck, and Covermore. The masterclass provided in-depth insights into the latest trends in expedition and luxury cruising, equipping agents with valuable knowledge to better serve their clients in this ever-popular category.
In addition to the masterclass, the retreat featured discussions on current cruise and market trends, enabling agents to identify and capitalise on emerging opportunities, and to engage in sessions on effective marketing and social media strategies to drive sales and enhance their business growth.
They also had the opportunity to enjoy exclusive pre-dawn access to Field of Light, the Voyages drone, sound and light show Wintjiri Wiru as well as a walk to the Mutijulu waterhole at the base of Uluru.
“It’s been a terrific few days,” said said Steve Brady, group general manager Cruise. “Cruise Spirit stores represent some of the top cruise stores in the industry. It was great to host them, not only at an awe-inspiring location, but the feedback on the masterclass content has been so positive. Providing top agents with even more skills and knowledge to do what they do best!”
