The new offerings were announced to 550 delegates from across the trade and cruise industry and inspired by the #LoveCruise theme of the conference.
The initiatives include the addition of a "love cruise" section to Clia’s website, offering a "practical checklist" of the ways in which agents can make the most of their Clia membership.
The site will also include a new section on sustainability, reflecting the cruise industry’s recently announced ambition to achieve net-zero carbon cruising by 2050.
A series of #LoveCruise webinars will also be announced, which will be free-of-charge for Clia members and held in July and August. The webinars will focus on a range of subject areas intended to inform and update agents on the latest developments within the sector.
Andy Harmer, Clia managing director for UK and Ireland, said the "energy and enthusiasm" for "all things cruise" at the conference has been "genuinely inspiring".
"The trade is clearly in confident mood, so we’re pleased to be able to add to that momentum by introducing our #LoveCruise initiatives," he added.
During the conference, attendees heard from spokespeople from across the industry, with sessions held on three ships over consecutive days: MSC Virtuosa, P&O Cruises’ Iona and Royal Caribbean’s Anthem of the Seas.
