■CRUISE LINE UNDER 75,000 PASSENGERS
WINNERS ROYAL CARIBBEAN &
CELEBRITY CRUISES
The judges said
Royal Caribbean was particularly credited for its commercial success,
especially for achieving its targeted growth in market share in the UK
over the past 12 months. Judges also highly rated the line’s on-the-road
sales team and noted the operator’s successful restructure of its UK
office. They also said the operator had showed its commitment to the
UK market by deciding to base a ship year-round in Southampton.
Celebrity’s dedication to the UK market, demonstrated by the
deployment of one of its new class of ships to Southampton next year,
and the launch of a forerunner in the UK this year, ensured this entry
stood out. Judges were also keen to reward the decision to create a
standalone trade team for the brand, noting the commitment this
showed to helping agents promote and sell a line that traditionally has
not enjoyed the highest profile in the Royal Caribbean stable.
They said:
Jo Rzymowska, RCCL UK general manager
“The team are absolutely over the moon that two of our brands have
clinched the two big cruise awards. We know we have great ships but
we still don’t take this lightly. What set’s us apart is how we work with
Royal Caribbean’s Jo Rzymowska and TTA’s Gary Lewis, flanked by Lucy Huxley and Austin Healey the trade. We listen to agents to find out exactly what they want.”
