Norwegian Cruise Line announced the appointment of Aaron Fletcher as its first dedicated Business Development Manager for Ireland.

Fletcher will work with Gary Anslow, Senior Director of Sales UK&I, to drive NCL’s growth strategy in both Northern Ireland and The Republic.

During his tenure, the company won ‘best sales support team’ at the NI Travel Awards in 2017, 2018 and 2019.

Prior to Travel Solutions, Fletcher spent five years at Oasis Travel, preceded by nearly five years at Thomas Cook.
