Cruise Holidays adds new agencies

Three cruise-specialty agencies dropped previous affiliations to join Cruise Holidays in the first quarter of this year, the company said. The three joined two newly opening agencies to contribute to a first quarter growth for the cruise company. The three will add nearly $10 million to Cruise Holidays annual sales volume. They are Clear Water Cruises, the Cruise Center, and Cruise Captains. Cruise Holiday said reasons for the move included the company’s strong support services, buying clout, and robust marketing and training strategies. Report by David Wilkening
