Small Ship Cruising in Croatia Continues to Gain Popularity Among Travelers As Company Strengthens Agent Partnerships. |
With a fleet of more than 60 ships in six different categories, Katarina Line continues to build its reputation worldwide as Croatia’s premier small ship cruising company and leading DMC. Coming off a record year in bookings, the company has announced its schedule for participation in winter 2020 workshops and trade shows that will take representatives across the United States and Canada. They include educational seminars and travel shows, as well as agent training to help advisors sell small ship cruising and land tours in Croatia. |
“We continue to strengthen our ties with the travel community and educate advisors about the unique vacation experience that is small ship cruising on the Adriatic Sea. We’re also discussing our wide range of immersive land tours that introduce travelers to Croatia’s architectural, cultural and historical attractions, as well as its many natural wonders,” said Daniel Hauptfeld, marketing director for Katarina Line and a frequent participant at many of the travel shows. “We owe a great deal of our success to the loyalty of our travel agent partners. They make up more than 98 per cent of all our bookings and we are always happy to reward them with some of the most generous commissions in the industry.” |
Katarina Line can meet agents at the trade show booths, as well as schedule meetings before or after the shows. Representatives can also visit agents' office for a private presentation and to train its staff.
