Travel the World Group has been appointed as a preferred Australian partner to promote and sell sailings for Swan Hellenic, an established, well-respected heritage cruise brand with over 7 decades of experience in chartering unique expedition sailings to some of the most undiscovered destinations in the world.
This is the second time Travel the World will partner with Swan Hellenic in Australia, having worked with the brand extensively over 10 years ago. Tasked with driving more enquires and bookings from Australian travellers seeking off-the-beaten path cruising experiences, Travel the World will work closely with agents across Australia to help them expand their repertoire to include Swan Hellenic – offering product training, special offers and industry-leading commission rates.
Travel the World Group Chairman, Andrew Millmore, commented on this appointment, “We are thrilled to welcome back Swan Hellenic to the Travel the World family as it embarks on an exciting relaunch and charters into new waters. This partnership comes at an exciting time just as we are starting to see a resurgence in interest for travel once again. Aimed at travellers who wish to explore truly unique destinations and remote Polar regions in the luxurious comfort of brand new, state-of-the-art ships, Swan Hellenic will provide an authentic, unforgettable and intimate experience.”
“Delivering new products, experiences and opportunities to grow revenue is, and has always been, part of Travel the World’s commitment to our travel agent partners. Though 2020 has been unlike anything we have ever experienced, we will leverage our longstanding knowledge of Swan Hellenic, our passion, our strong industry relationships built over 40 years and wealth of travel experience to help our agent partners deliver truly bespoke expedition experiences to their clients,” he added.
Alfredo Spadon, Swan Hellenic’s SVP Global Sales and Marketing, commented “We’re truly delighted to have Travel the World Group as one of Swan Hellenic’s Preferred Partner in Australia, believing strongly in the immense potential of the Australian market, with its passion for adventure and exploration. It was essential for us to have a truly capable expert partner based in Australia. Thanks to the incredible experience of Travel the World Group, we’ll be able to offer our guests the benefits of full sea-sky integration to carry them from their cities to our ships and back again around the world.”
As one of the preferred Australian partners to make bookings with Swan Hellenic on behalf of travel agents, we will provide extensive training and support to help our agent partners promote these boutique expedition ships, so they can take their offerings to the next level. We also offer leading commission rates, access to exclusive incentives and special offers and dedicated support.
