Events will take place in Dover, South Queensferry, Liverpool, Belfast, Newcastle and Cork – the latter two of which are new for 2024.
The visits will comprise a welcome by the Holland America Line trade team, a guided tour and lunch. Details of how agents can register their interest will be released soon.
The dates and locations are:
● Nieuw Statendam, 20 April, Dover
● Rotterdam, 26 April, Dover
● Nieuw Statendam, 19 June, South Queensferry
● Rotterdam, 21 June, South Queensferry
● Nieuw Statendam, 26 June, Liverpool
● Nieuw Statendam, 18 July, Newcastle
● Zuiderdam, 8 August, Cork
● Zuiderdam, 10 August, Belfast
Director Sales & Marketing Karen Farndell (pictured) said: “Following the fantastic feedback we received regarding our 2023 ship visit programme, we have decided to go one better and provide even more opportunities for agents to get onboard this year.
“These visits are crucial in helping the trade broaden their knowledge and understand what makes Holland America Line unique in the market. As we prepare to offer ex-UK sailings from Dover in 2025, it’s even more vital we give agents the information they need to confidently sell these itineraries.
“These ship visits complement the raft of trade-friendly tools we have available, ensuring we have everything in place to help generate enquiries and sales.”
