Norwegian Cruise Line Introduces “CruiseFirst” Program for Travel Partners
Norwegian Cruise Line launched “CruiseFirst”, a value-add program offering guests both increased flexibility and additional savings when booking their dream cruise vacation in 2021 and beyond.
CruiseFirst certificates will allow guests to receive a $300 value coupon for the cost of $150, where they have three years from purchase date to apply their certificate to any new reservation across NCL’s award-winning 17-ship fleet, visiting more than 300 destinations worldwide.
CruiseFirst certificates are combinable with nearly all public promotions including our currently running bestselling deal of the year: 30% off a voyage on any ship plus all five Free at Sea offers including free open bar, free specialty dining, free shore excursions credits, free WiFi and discounted rates for friends and family– a value of more than $2,900.
From Jan. 1, 2021 to March 31, 2021, to provide additional support to travel partners, advisors will receive a Wave season $50 gift card bonus on the purchase of each CruiseFirst certificate. Advisors will also receive full commission on the reservation of the new booking made using the CruiseFirst certificate. Commissions will be paid based on NCL’s standard commission policy.
“In advance of ‘Week of You’, our most robust travel partner initiative ever launched and in anticipation of our highly-awaited comeback to cruising, we created a program that places immediate revenue in the hands of our travel advisors while creating value for their clients,” said Katina Athanasiou, chief sales officer at Norwegian Cruise Line. “This is why we’re pulling out all the stops to help our partners be at their best entering 2021 and together, be better prepared to have a successful Wave season.”
Norwegian Cruise Line’s “Week of You” taking place Dec. 7 to 11, 2020, will feature a complimentary five-day series of curated virtual events designed to inspire and support travel advisors.
