Clia UK & Ireland will host three Luxury and Expedition Cruise Showcase events in October.
The events in Belfast, Manchester and Norwich will give agents a chance to meet luxury and expedition cruise lines face-to-face.
Each of the evening events on October 8, 9, and 10, will feature a panel discussion.
Andy Harmer, Clia UK & Ireland director, said: “We are thrilled to announce that for the first time this year, along with speed training, our luxury and expedition showcase events will include an expert panel discussion.
“Over recent years we have seen a significant increase of interest in luxury and expedition cruises, so it is important that travel agents feel knowledgeable and confident when selling these types of cruises.
“The panel discussion will give agents a deeper insight into luxury cruises and expedition cruises, how they differ from other cruise holidays, the guest experience and how to attract the right customers.”
Registration for the Luxury and Expedition Showcase events will open at the end of this month.
Clia will also host its first Expedition Cruise Forum in London on March 28.
TV broadcaster Monty Halls and Robin West, Seabourn’s vice-president of expedition operations, will speak at the one-day event.
