Cruise agents host afternoon teas to boost business
Travel agents nationwide are hosting afternoon teas to mark the sixth annual National Cruise Week from September 21 to 29.
This year the focus is to get ‘Britain and Ireland Cruising’ by highlighting the range of destinations and experiences available from river cruises in Europe to long haul ocean cruises.
Andy Harmer, CLIA UK and Ireland director, said: "This year we will celebrate the sixth National Cruise Week, an event that has gone from strength to strength thanks to the terrific support of travel agents and our cruise line members.
"All-in-all, young or old, solo or family, there is a cruise to suit everyone’s taste and everyone’s pocket."
Three Cruise Shows are also taking place in Manchester (7 & 8 September), Birmingham (21 & 22 September) and Glasgow (5 & 6 October) where visitors are able to meet cruise lines and discover inspirational travel ideas.
