Lucky Travel Agent to Win Cruise for Two with Fred. Olsen Cruise Lines

 

October 9th 2018 – Travel agents are in with the chance to win a cruise for two aboard the newest addition to Fred. Olsen’s fleet – its river boat Brabant – in celebration of the company’s new European River Cruising Online Training Programme.

 

The interactive programme, which launched this month in conjunction with Online Travel Training, allows travel agents to learn more about Fred. Olsen’s river product, following the launch of its first river ship Brabant earlier this year.

 

It features five modules focusing on life on board Brabant, destinations and key experiences, guest services and how to book, complete with videos, images and downloadable documents of useful information, with a short quiz at the end of each module.

 

To celebrate the launch, Fred. Olsen Cruise Lines will offer one lucky agent a free cruise for two people on board Brabant, with free flights and a free dining drinks upgrade – plus, all agents who go on to make a booking will receive £20 in shopping vouchers.

 

Mike Evans, Head of Sales at Fred. Olsen Cruise Lines, said:

 

“It has been a successful inaugural year for Brabant, which has been serving the Danube, Main, Moselle and Rhine rivers with us since April.

 

“We know that our travel agents are integral to this success, and it is paramount that those selling our river cruises really understand the product that we offer, how we operate and how this differs from our ocean cruises.

 

“Our new European River Cruising Online Training Programme is the perfect way for us to make sure travel agents know Brabant and our sailings inside out, while rewarding their hard work and loyalty with shopping vouchers and the chance to win a free river cruise with us to experience it first hand!”

 

The winning agent will be able to choose from the following cruises as their prize:
