Star Clippers will operate its largest ever Fam trip for the UK travel trade.
The UK trade team has invited 15 travel agents aboard Star Flyer for an eight-night sailing from Malaga to Rome later this month.
UK-wide travel agents from The Cruise Village, Miles Morgan Travel, The Travel Bureau, Deva Travel, IGLU, Glen Travel, Gates Travel, Peakes Travel and more will experience the Star Clippers service on an authentic tall-ship.
The sailing will be divided in two parts, each giving agents a first-hand experience of sailing on the 166-capacity ship.
Star Flyer will depart Malaga on 26 April before visiting Motril (Spain), Ibiza (Balearic Islands), Palma de Mallorca (Balearic Islands), Mahon (Balearic Islands) and Bonifacio (Corsica). The ship arrives in Rome on 4 May.
The two groups will be hosted by Nicola Cox, Regional Sales Manager for the South, and Alison Jared, Regional Sales Manager for the North.
“Providing travel agents with the opportunity to experience a Star Clippers sailing first-hand is the ultimate way to educate industry partners about our unique product,” said GM of Star Clippers UK, Fay McCormack.
Star Clippers is represented in the UK by General Sales Agent Fred Olsen Travel.
The line’s two smaller ships, Star Flyer and Star Clipper have a capacity for 166 guests each, while Royal Clipper carries 227 with a crew of 106.
