I've been humming the Smokey Robinson song, Cruisin', this week.
And now I have it
in your brain too, right? :-) You're welcome for the ear worm. (I put the video with lyrics above, so you can sing along.)
Maybe it's because I've been booking so many cruises for clients - and - I'm planning so many cruises myself. It's on the brain.
I'm
taking a group to Greece for an intensive journey with Azamara next July (see section 3. below in the newsletter for details), and I've been booking clients on that as well as clients on Azamara's France intensive journey and their Italy intensive journey. I'll also be sailing with Azamara this winter.
I've booked some clients on a Ponant Mediterranean cruise, as well as
some A&K charters on Ponant, and a couple of Tauck partial charters too.
I have clients today onboard AMA Waterways river cruises for the Taste of Bordeaux, and a Rhine Getaway - and I'm also working with and confirming other clients for Christmas markets, a New Year's Eve cruise, Burgundy and Provence, the Douro, a Tulip cruise, and Egypt. And I'll be sailing
on AMA myself sometime this fall.
I'm confirming air for clients doing a Uniworld Christmas markets, and have some clients doing the French rivers with Tauck.
I'm working with a couple of clients on
Lindblad sailings to Egypt with Jordan extensions.
I'm working with several clients on Oceania cruises to Australia and South Pacific, as well as some Med and South America cruises. And I'll be sailing on Oceania myself again sometime soon.
I have a few clients cruises with Holland America to Singapore and the Baltics. And a few
clients cruising Newfoundland and the eastern Canadian coast with Seabourn. Plus, there's a few others doing Alaska with Lindblad and Princess.
I'll be sailing with Windstar to the Caribbean in December, and have just confirmed some clients with them to Tahiti.
And I'm working on several clients cruises to Antarctica with Quark and
Silversea and Lindblad. I'm also working on several Galapagos trips with Lindblad.
When I was in Vegas, some of my best meetings were with my cruise partners in the Cruise Cafe. Last week, I'd mentioned the Globetrotting Day, where I met with 36 travel partners in a trade show environment. (See
https://lushlife.ca/30-cool-things-from-virtuoso-globetrotting/ ) . I also met with at least 20 or more cruise partners in one-on-one meetings for product updates and special trainings. They were some of the best for relationship building as well as knowledge building, so I can help my clients better travel the world.
