The team at Cruisescene in Sydney’s North Ryde (part of Donna Barlow Travel) is marking National Cruise Week with an Expo on  Saturday September 8 and has invited clients to join them, with a non-cruising friend, to check out the deals on offer. Pictured left to right are Cruisescene North Ryde’s team: Yvette Bortolussi, Tara de Andrade, Stephanie O'Keil, Donna Meads-Barlow, Kimberly Neville, Marc Randall and Carla Chidiac.

National Cruise Week is now underway with more than 1000 travel agents across Australia and New Zealand selling a great range of special cruise deals  on offer from International Cruise Council Australasia member cruise lines.

ICCA General Manger Brett Jardine said a large number of agents were planning special events to promote the week – the biggest ever cruise promotion undertaken in Australasia.

“We’ve had a great response from agents to this initiative, which has been promoted heavily in national media in both Australia and New Zealand, so we’re really looking forward to seeing how all the activity translates into sales,” Mr Jardine said.

National Cruise Week runs from September 3-9.
