Registration for Travel Weekly’s CruiseWorld is now open. The 2022 event returns to Fort Lauderdale, Fla., and the Broward County Convention Center, Nov. 2-4.
The annual event has a lot to offer advisors of all tenures and sales levels, including supplier trainings, networking, ship inspections and informative general sessions.
By registering early, you can take advantage of the event’s lowest rates. Register now at the early bird rate of $175, more than 40% off full-price registration.
Ship inspections will make a comeback, taking place November 5-6. Watch the CruiseWorld website at CruiseWorldShow.com for updates on the roster of ships to be announced in the coming months.
Returning in 2022 are the crowd-favorite Pitch Perfect segments where a panel of suppliers pitch their product to advisors’ hypothetical clients live on stage. Topics will feature multi-generational, group and luxury travel as well as river cruising.
Also back is CruiseWorld’s popular STAR (Select Travel Advisor Recognition) Program for an elite group of up to 250 CruiseWorld attendees. The 2021 program was sold out. All those interested in applying are encouraged to do so as soon as possible. More information on the semi-hosted program and the STAR application can be found at cruiseworldshow.com/star.
Peer-to-peer training will be available on Friday, Nov. 4. These breakout sessions are a highlight of CruiseWorld. They enable developing and established advisors to learn from one another in the areas of marketing, sales, social media, product development, professional development, supplier relationship building and more.
Advisor attendees will also have a chance to brainstorm together in an interactive Think Tank. Attendees will be able to share ideas about what has worked for them and ask for assistance from their peers for challenges they are facing.
Supplier sponsored workshops will also be offered on Wednesday and Thursday, Nov. 2-3. Attendees will hear from destinations, cruise lines, and other suppliers on new products and programs.
The 2022 supplier roster for the Exhibitor Showcase is growing day by day. Airlines, cruise lines, destinations, hotels and resorts, professional services, tour operators, host agency and consortia, travel insurance and more will all be well represented on the showcase floor come November.
