AUSTRALIA’S cruise community is gearing up for the biggest-ever Cruise360, with record numbers of travel advisors and cruise leaders expected to converge on Sydney for the industry’s most important gathering of the year.
A packed program of international and regional speakers will provide essential insights for cruise specialists, while the event will also include the biggest-ever Cruise360 trade show, allowing delegates to connect with cruise lines, destinations, and other exhibitors from around the world.
The 30 August conference, available exclusively to Cruise Lines international Association (CLIA) members, will be held at the International Convention Centre Sydney, to accommodate the larger numbers, with discounted earlybird tickets ending on 30 June.
Tickets are available for the full-day conference program and trade show, as well as CLIA’s first River Cruise Showcase on 29 August, a half day of product training on sailing the world’s inland waterways.
The River Cruise Showcase will be followed by a welcome event, with CLIA Managing Director Joel Katz saying this year’s Cruise360 will combine a global perspective with practical knowledge to help agents boost their business.
“We will hear from international cruise leaders on the opportunities in an expanding global cruise sector, as well as local experts who can share hands-on experience and advice,” Katz said.
“Cruise360 is a fantastic opportunity to hear from cruising thought leaders and to connect with colleagues from across the cruise sector.
“It’s a must-attend event for any travel agent looking to thrive in cruising.”
