In a bid to make selling cruises smooth sailing for agents, Regent Seven Seas have laid out new optional Business Class flight packages on offer for voyages from April 2017 onwards.

The new Business Class Air Package fares for which agents receive a commission will include: an all-inclusive luxury cruise, return business class flights from all major Australian gateways with preferred airline partners Emirates, Qantas or Singapore Airlines, one night pre-cruise hotel accommodation and transfers between the airport, hotel and their chosen cruise ship.

“We know the overwhelming majority of our guests fly Business Class and often require hotel accommodation prior to their cruise,” Norwegian Cruise Line Holdings Steve Odell, SVP & managing director Asia Pacific said.

Regent offers all guests an all-inclusive experience including:

  • FREE unlimited shore excursions
  • FREE unlimited WIFI
  • FREE unlimited beverages (including fine wines and premium spirits)
  • FREE fine dining at specialty restaurants
  • FREE pre-paid gratuities
  • FREE open bars and lounges and in-suite mini bar replenished daily

“Our travel agent partners are now able to sell an attractive package including an all-inclusive luxury cruise, return business class flights, hotels and transfers in a pre-packaged format that makes booking their clients holiday incredibly easy and convenient – both for the agent and the client,” explained Odell.

Business Class Air Package supplements start from AU$4,440 for Asia voyages and from AU$6,590 to Europe.

Upgrades to First Class flight flights and route deviations (for a small fee) are also available. ‘Cruise only’ packages for Australian travellers who enjoy long periods of travel and desire more flexibility continue to be offered.
