Agents celebrate ‘best ever’ £52,000 cruise booking
Travel agents Tracey Wilkes and Charlotte Barnett of Travel Trail in Tenbury Wells, Worcestershire are celebrating a cruise booking worth £52,000.
The pair booked a regular customer on a Grand Round the World Cruise with CMV for 2019.
Wilkes said: "I have been in the industry for 21 years and this is the best booking I have ever had to handle with my colleague Charlotte Barnett.
"The gentleman who is a good regular customer called and said he wanted to book a CMV world cruise that he had seen advertised.
I was a little nervous at pressing the keyboard to confirm this wonderful booking."
CMV said the booking would have earned the agency at least £5,200 commission as it pays a minimum of 10%.
