The first ‘trade-wide’ booking incentive by Marella Cruises is offering 25 places for agents on a Caribbean sailing.
The ‘Make it on Marella’ trade promotion will see winning agents take a cruise from the Tui line’s new home port of La Romana in the Dominican Republic.
The top 20 agents, plus five ‘wild card’ agent places, will win a trip onboard adults-only ship Marella Explorer 2.
The seven-night itinerary departs on March 11, 2025, with calls at St Maarten, Dominica, Antigua, British Virgin Islands and Samana, Dominican Republic.
To enter, agents need to submit their own Marella Cruises package bookings on a digital form. A leaderboard will be created by the line to ensure agents are aware of their placements.
The incentive runs from today (Wednesday) until December 31.
Winning agents will receive the full end-to-end service from Marella Cruises with flights, transfers and tips included, and an all-inclusive treatment as standard to sample the food and drink options onboard.
The trip will be hosted by representatives of Marella Cruises and Tui.
Marella Cruises managing director Chris Hackney said: “We are thrilled to be offering 25 incentive places aboard the Marella Explorer 2 in 2025.
“It’s important to us that we give our trusted travel agents a unique trip to immerse themselves in the product whilst also experiencing one of our new Caribbean homeports for 2025 in La Romana, Dominican Republic.”
