Agents dressed in white and enjoyed a night with Azamara in Brisbane for the White Night in Winter event, where they were updated with all the latest news, met the Australia and New Zealand team and raised a glass or two in the style just like you would onboard under the evening stars.
Held at The Lussh in Brisbane, the event started with drinks and grazing board nibbles before celebrating the news of Azamara’s return to Australian waters on 19 December 2022, with the first departure on 21 December 2022.
Azamara Director of Sales, Belle Osmic, said “Australia is a key market for Azamara, coming just behind the US market for the most booked on the Round The World voyage.”
Belle reminded guests that the Azamara philosophy of ‘Change the way you sea’ was still strong, with the focus being on the guests and their immersive travel experience when joining an Azamara Cruise.
Rounding out the rest of the Azamara team was Kristina Sambaher, Business Development Manager NSW/QLD, Darragh Robbins, Trade & Customer Support Executive, Natalie Bax, Sales Support Dynamo and Jessica Papalia, Business Development Manager VIC/TAS/SA.
Four lucky agents won a door prize to join the first cruise on Azamara to Australia in December. Greg Thorn from Arrivia, Casey Russell from Clean Cruising, Paul Graham from Just Cruises and Sarah Webster from Travel Partners will cruise on the first Azamara Quest sailing to Australia (Perth) from Singapore on 10 December 2022.
Azamara Quest’s 14-Night Australia Intensive Voyage will depart from Perth (Freemantle) on 21 December 2022. From there, it stops in Margaret River to grab a glass of merlot—or two—from local vintners in this renowned wine region, followed by stops in Albany to view its beautiful Victorian architecture, and Esperance, home of Cape Le Grand National Park. Christmas is celebrated at sea, where Azamara take care of the feasts and festivities while guests unwrap two days of much deserved relaxation.
After Christmas, the gifts keep coming, starting with a late stay in Adelaide, then a hop over to Kangaroo Island. After a day at sea enjoying onboard shopping, entertainment, and relaxing in the spa, guests will discover Eden, a rugged paradise on Earth that that lives up to its name.
The ship arrives in Sydney with plenty of time to ring in the New Year. Renowned for its New Year’s celebrations, expect to see aerial displays, traditional aboriginal ceremonies, and fireworks high above the iconic Opera House. After staying for two nights, there is one more day at sea to sail to Australia’s cultural capital, Melbourne, where the adventure ends.
