THERE’S a reason why Carnival’s motto is “choose fun”, with the team from the cruise line hosting trade partners aboard the Carnival Spirit yesterday to sample the latest small batch beers imported from the USA.
Guests will have a selection of new beers to suit their palates with toasted amber, Caribbean wheat and Indian pale ales now available on all departures.
Speaking with Cruise Weekly, Anton Loeb, Director of Sales at Carnival Cruise Line said that Carnival Spirit had enjoyed a solid 2019, with sales tracking at 92% capacity sold with only “small pockets of opportunities for agents left to sell” for the remainder of the year.
He urged agents to leverage promotions to fill the remaining spaces this year ahead of the ship moving to Brisbane in 2020.
Loeb said that an additional BDM in QLD had joined the team to capitalise on the demand that Carnival Spirit is expected to generate.
In other news Loeb said that a series of “Seminars at Sea” will be available next year when Carnival Splendor arrives in Sydney in Dec for agents to familiarise themselves with the added facilities aboard the fleet’s largest vessel.
