For the first time, MSC Cruises has invited 20 of its highest-performing travel partners in Australia and New Zealand to attend All Stars of the Sea, the cruise line’s annual global trade recognition event, held this year aboard the spectacular new MSC World Asia.
The Australian and New Zealand delegation will join more than 1,000 international travel advisors and partners from around the world on an exclusive five-night voyage from Le Havre to Barcelona. As some of the ship’s very first guests, they will experience MSC World Asia’s innovative design, world-class entertainment, exceptional dining and signature European hospitality before she enters regular service.
All Stars of the Sea recognises and celebrates MSC Cruises’ most valued travel partners from around the world, rewarding the travel advisors, agencies and partners that have demonstrated exceptional performance, commitment and partnership with the cruise line.
“Bringing our Australian and New Zealand partners to All Stars of the Sea for the very first time is a significant milestone-not just for this market, but for MSC Cruises globally,” said Katrina McAlpine, Managing Director Australia & New Zealand, MSC Group Cruise Division.
“To experience our newest ship in Europe immediately following her christening makes this an incredibly special moment. Our partners won’t simply attend All Stars of the Sea-they’ll become part of MSC Cruises’ history and return home with a truly unique story to share with their teams and clients. It reflects the strong partnership we’ve built with the travel trade and our shared commitment to growing the MSC Cruises brand across Australia and New Zealand.”
During the voyage, partners will be recognised at a series of awards celebrating outstanding achievements across categories including Best Network Agent, Best MSC Yacht Club Producer and more. Guests will also enjoy exclusive product presentations, connect with MSC Cruises executives and network with leading travel professionals from around the world, while being among the first to experience everything MSC World Asia has to offer.
