Hurtigruten Group has announced Melanie Gray as the new Regional Sales Manager for Victoria, Tasmania, South Australia and Western Australia, who brings a wealth of dedication and expertise to the role with more than 16 years’ industry experience.

After a short break from the travel industry, Mel Gray said she is excited to embark on this next journey with Hurtigruten Group as part of the APAC team.

Ms Gray has previously held roles in sales, product and learning and development at Cox & Kings, Intrepid Travel and Flight Centre Travel Group, and is known for her dedication and people skills.

Ms Gray is the latest member for the growing Hurtigruten APAC team, which recently recruited for multiple sales and marketing roles, including Sales Director and Sales Manager.

Hurtigruten welcomed back APAC Marketing Director Joel Victoria in May after a pandemic-induced break as the brand moves to shore up major local initiatives that will drive the cruise line into the next decade.

The Norwegian-based global travel and expedition cruise company also reported that all ships are fully operational and forward bookings for the 12-month period from Q2 2022 to Q1 2023 were higher than pre-pandemic levels.
