Cruise World Has It All Event Covers Travel Expertise on Land, Air, and Sea
From November 1-3, 2023, CruiseWorld will bring the entire industry together at the Greater Fort Lauderdale/Broward County Convention Center in Florida. The industry will experience growth and evolution through educational workshops, general sessions, networking events, and a trademark Exhibitor Showcase. Travel advisors seek education, relationships, and new products for their eager customers. Supplier partners can establish new sales relationships and share product updates.
CruiseWorld successfully supports every segment of the travel industry—cruise, tour, destinations, hotels, technology, and more. CruiseWorld also strives to create an environment of inclusion. We embrace, value, and champion our attendees’ diverse backgrounds and the experiences that make them unique. We will continue to expand our diversity, equity, and inclusion efforts to ensure that our events embrace diversity and varied points of view.
The event includes 5 general sessions where industry leaders will take the stage to discuss new updates within their company, what to expect in the coming year, trends, and more.
There are 19 workshops and 12 peer-led sessions that will provide invaluable information to help propel travel businesses to new heights, taught by both suppliers and travel advisor peers.
The dynamic and interactive Exhibitor Showcase provides advisors with a venue to meet travel suppliers and learn more about their product and service offerings. Over 145 exhibitors in attendance come from all facets of the travel industry, not just cruise.
With ship tours, advisors will have the opportunity to get on board and tour the best ships on the water. Advisors can learn which ships are best for each of their clients and are armed with information to more effectively plan the perfect cruise vacation.
Finally, there is the STAR (Select Travel Advisor Recognition) Program. CruiseWorld has created the STAR Program, connecting pre-qualified industry professionals through pre-scheduled, virtual, one-on-one Business Connections and select networking opportunities. Travel Weekly sponsors approve members who are committed to their future and the event programming, and provide them with complimentary event registration and two nights of hotel accommodation at an official conference hotel.
As Ashley Gil, with Royal Caribbean International says, “CruiseWorld is an opportunity to connect with different vendors, agents, and people in the industry. It’s a great way to promote a business and encourage agents to grow their business with us. It’s also a way we get to share new, exciting information with travel partners to get them to better sell our brand.”
