Agents are being invited onboard Seven Seas Grandeur during its inaugural northern Europe season, with 12 visits taking place in Southampton, Belfast, Glasgow and Liverpool throughout June and July.

Agents can still register their interest via the Regent Trade Facebook Group, although the brand says limited spaces remain. “Regent Seven Seas Cruises thrives when our valued travel partners thrive,” said Paul Beale, the brand’s vice president UK & Ireland sales. "This record-breaking ship visit programme marks a bold new chapter in our trade engagement strategy.

“With more than 600 agents stepping aboard Seven Seas Grandeur this summer, we’re giving them the opportunity to see, touch and feel what sets Regent apart. 

“There’s no substitute for first-hand experience when it comes to selling the most inclusive luxury experience at sea, and we are proud to empower our partners with the tools and insights they need to succeed.”

Seven Seas Grandeur accommodates 746 guests and claims one of the highest space and staff-to-guest ratios in the industry. It boasts a multi-million-dollar art collection including a Faberge Egg.

Regent is also offering a new online training video. Agents can request access to it through their relevant sales manager.

"The scale and ambition of this summer’s trade engagement programme is massively impressive,” added Steve Odell, senior vice-president international and consumer sales. “It reflects not only the value we place on our agent relationships, but also our commitment to long-term, meaningful partnerships."
