(TAN): Seabourn is reiterating its commitment to travel advisors with its third annual “Global Partner Appreciation Event.” Set to run longer than ever – from March 2 – April 30, 2020 – the two-month event demonstrates Seabourn’s gratitude to dedicated travel advisors around the world.
This year’s edition of the “Global Partner Appreciation Event” will see global sales teams in North America, the United Kingdom, Europe, and Australia reinforcing Seabourn’s longstanding support to travel advisor partners, who are instrumental in the company’s business. Through an increased number of activities, including seminars, webinars, conferences, events, and in-person meetings, the event offers opportunities for regional sales teams to share details of new developments from Seabourn.
“We take our guests on ultra-luxury journeys they’ll never forget, but it takes dedicated travel advisors to show prospective cruise passengers what really makes Seabourn the finest experience on the seas. Our travel advisor partners remain an invaluable asset for us, and we want to continue to support their growth and success every way we can,” noted Chris Austin, Seabourn’s senior vice president of Global Marketing & Sales. “Our ‘Global Partner Appreciation Event’ helps our teams keep advisors up-to-date with the latest details on Seabourn and offers an avenue for us to show our partners how much we appreciate their support and commitment, which grows stronger year after year.”
As part of the 2020 “Global Partner Appreciation Event,” Seabourn is offering a two-month-long promotion with rewards. For each booking made during the event, travel advisors can enter for a chance to win a Seabourn cruise. Bookings must have a deposit to be eligible. Seabourn will draw one lucky winner who will receive a cruise for two of up to seven days.
Seabourn is also providing opportunities for advisors to earn Amazon Gift Cards in the U.S., U.K. and Canada markets.

Seabourn’s Partner Appreciation Event is applicable to select 2020 & 2021 sailings (certain restrictions apply). The event runs concurrently with the brand’s “Sensational Suite Savings” promotion that offers a number of benefits for consumers. Seabourn is also running a special group offer during the Partner Appreciation Event, where groups booked during March and April on select sailings will be eligible for both shipboard credits and bonus commissions. Additional details on the group offer are available on Seabourn’s online Travel Advisor Center.
The “Partner Appreciation”-inspired activities are designed to ensure travel advisors have a keen grasp of the cornerstones of the “Seabourn Difference” and are fully equipped to grow their own business, increase luxury sales, and identify new cruise guests. Highlights to be featured include new itineraries, company news, and insider perspectives on the line’s two new expedition vessels – Seabourn Venture and its yet-to-be-named sister ship – which are scheduled to launch in June 2021 and May 2022, respectively. Seabourn’s Travel Advisor Center also offers a number of tools, resources and information to assist travel advisors on everything they need to know to sell the ultra-luxury cruise line to their clients.
