Viking Cruises is hoping to make it a little easier for Travel Agents in Australia and New Zealand to familiarise themselves and sell its extensive catalogue of cruises through its first locally dedicated Agent Portal.

Launched today, the Viking Travel Agent Portal gives consultants direct access to a range of tools to help them learn and sell river and ocean trips, including current offers, documents for each destination, an image library of images, webinars and training tools, as well as downloadable marketing material.

The cruise line’s Managing Director in Australia and New Zealand, Michelle Black, the online portal aims to make it easier and faster for consultants to sell its cruises and according to an early test, it does exactly that.

“Initial feedback from the Agent test group has been positive as it provides Agents with all the information they may need, in one reliable and accessible resource.”
