Avalon Waterways resumes fam trip programme

Avalon Waterways has resumed its agent fam trip programme, with the first sailings set to take place since 2020.

Starting in October, the programme will enable agents to join three or four-night sailings on the Danube.

They will be hosted by a member of the Avalon Waterways UK sales team.

Phil Shipman, Avalon UK sales director, said: “It’s great to restart the agent fam trip programme and we can’t wait to host agents onboard.

“We know how stand-out our product is and we are looking forward to agents being able to experience it for themselves.

“Agents are integral to everything we do at Avalon Waterways and the reintroduction of fam trips is a natural step for us as we continue to build our new and existing relationships.”

The line says its Avalon Panorama Suites are 30% larger than the industry standard and offer river cruising’s only open-air balcony.

Avalon cabins are set up so the beds are facing outwards meaning guests can enjoy the floor-to-ceiling panoramic windows and wake up to a new view every morning.

Avalon Waterways was recently awarded the ServiceMark accreditation with distinction for great customer service by the Institute of Customer Service.

The cruise line is a sister brand to Globus and Cosmos Tours.
