Viking Cruises launches agent portal

VIKING Cruises has amped up its support for the trade by launching a travel agent portal for Australian and New Zealand agents, offering a range of marketing tools.

The portal features materials covering both Viking’s river and ocean product, including current offers and promotions, a range of documents for each Viking destination, an image library, access to webinars and other training tools and downloadable marketing material such as flyers, brochures, press releases and Facebook tiles.

Viking Cruises Australia and New Zealand md Michelle Black said the move was to “better support our trade network and make it easier and quicker than ever for our valued agents to market and sell our river and ocean cruise product”.

“Initial feedback from the agent test group has been positive as it provides agents with all the information they may need, in one reliable and accessible resource,” she said.

As an incentive to register for the portal, Viking Cruises is giving away an eight-night Chateaux, Rivers & Wine river cruise for two on the 20 Oct 2018 departure.

To go in the draw, agents must register by 01 Dec.
