Cruise360 Australasia is one week away from dropping anchor in Sydney on Thursday 25 August, hosting a fleet of travel advisors and industry insiders for conference sessions, events and a trade show designed to instil the confidence and knowledge required to ride the current wave of challenges and change in cruising.
The Southern Hemisphere’s largest cruise conference, Cruise360 brings travel professionals, cruise line representatives, ports and destinations, industry suppliers and Cruise Lines International Association (CLIA) partners together for a panoramic view of the industry.
Cruise360 has added two additional expert sessions that will highlight the new opportunities emerging from cruising’s global revival.
In the Turning Obstacles into Opportunities expert session, author and educator Heidi Denning will offer self-leadership strategies to help advisors overcome obstacles and seize new opportunities, while a panel session of cruise line sales and marketing leaders will provide insight into consumers’ changing habits and buying behaviour.
The Changing Habits: Understanding Cruise Marketing Trends Post-Pandemic panel session will be moderated by Dan Russell (General Manager & Director, Clean Cruising) with Kathryn Lock (Director of Marketing, Royal Caribbean International), Chloe Jones (Senior Marketing Manager, Princess Cruises), Steve Richards (Director of Sales, Silversea Cruises), Lisa Teiotu (Commercial Director Australia & New Zealand, MSC Cruises) and Matt Vince (Director of Marketing, Regent Seven Seas Cruises) plus an overview of global trends presented by Google Industry Manager – Travel, Henry Meagher.
