ABOARD VALIANT LADY_Virgin Voyages acknowledged top-selling journey advisors with its first-ever First Mate Spectacular Soiree and Golden Ink Awards throughout a four-night cruise on its latest ship, Valiant Lady, which departed Miami on Jan. 4.
Virgin invited the highest 100 North American “First Mates” who had probably the most bookings between Nov. 1, 2021, and Oct. 31, 2022, to a complimentary cruise and celebration of their success. Agents, together with representatives from the Cruise Lines International Association (CLIA) and the American Society of Travel Advisors (ASTA), plus commerce press, assembled in The Manor for the ceremony.
The high “First Mates” received awards in a number of classes from John Diorio, Virgin’s vp of North American gross sales, and Sabrina Newman, supervisor of commerce engagement and co-host of Virgin Voyages’ “The Monday Sip” podcast.
During the cruise, brokers have been handled to a cocktail reception and obtained particular Virgin swag, in addition to a non-public celebration at Virgin’s Beach Club on Bimini. “This is something we’ve wanted to do for some time,” Diorio instructed me, acknowledging the vital position journey advisors play of their enterprise.
