AmaWaterways is joining in on the Summer Olympics fun with its own Cruise for Gold travel advisor incentives, offering Gold, Silver and Bronze medals to three travel advisors. Prizes include everything from suite accommodations during an Egypt sailing to a French balcony stateroom on a European itinerary.
A Gold Medal wins a luxury suite on AmaWaterways’ 12-day Secrets of Egypt & the Nile river cruise, departing between September 2024 and March 2025, as well as Business Class roundtrip air from award-winning Turkish Airlines. A Silver Medal winner enjoys a twin-balcony stateroom on any European itinerary from September 2024 to March 2025, excluding Portugal, and a Bronze Medal winner takes home a French balcony stateroom on any European itinerary from September 2024 to March 2025, excluding Portugal. All prizes are for a travel advisor and guest, and subject to availability.
Travel Advisors — Ready, Set, Go
Travel advisors are automatically entered into the contest with every new fully deposited booking on any 2024 and 2025 French itinerary made during the Summer Games timeframe (July 26 to Sept. 8, 2024). The more bookings, the more entries, and there are plenty of options as AmaWaterways operates a choice of eight French itineraries across five ships.
Winners will be drawn at random and announced on Sept. 9. A flyer summarizing the details of the contest can be found at 2024_CruiseforGold_Contest.pdf.
To help travel partners maximize reservations during this period, AmaWaterways has produced a wide range of marketing materials including social reels, imagery and videos, all available at the line’s Travel Agent portal: amawaterways.com/agent-login. A new video and additional reels for social media featuring AmaWaterways’ French cruises have been added to the sales/marketing materials. A France-themed webinar will be shown on July 24—registration can be found here.
“Over the coming weeks the eyes of the world will be on France” comments Alex Pinelo, Senior Vice President, Sales at AmaWaterways. “Every day, millions of people will be watching live streams from many parts of France, and this will undoubtedly bring the destination to the forefront of their minds. It’s not just Paris that will be hosting events, Bordeaux, Marseille and Lyon are all operating as Summer Games venues and will be in the spotlight too. The travel advisor community has a great opportunity to capitalize on France’s high profile and earn both great commissions and fabulous prizes.”
