| HLO’s cruise stars set sail

HELLOWORLD’S 2024 Cruise Star top-performing travel advisors rediscovered their inner child recently on a whimsical four-night adventure on Disney Cruise Line’s Disney Wonder.

The ship, which was kitted out in full Christmas regalia, was hosted by Cruiseso Sales Manager Greg Wilson, with advisors able to fully immerse themselves in the Christmas magic as only Disney can do it.

“Our Cruise Star agents had a terrific time on the sailing,” said Wilson, pictured above inset with Cinderella herself.

“It was so great to see such big smiles and agents being able to meet their favourite Disney characters,” he added.

Sailing return from Melbourne to Hobart, the 2024 Cruise Stars reward famil saw agents treated to a glittering fireworks display on departure from Tasmania as part of the ‘Pirates in the Caribbean’ themed deck party.

This theme continued with a swashbuckling dinner experience, while the voyage also featured a private mixology class, brunch in the speciality restaurant Palo, and plenty of photo opportunities with iconic Disney characters including Mickey Mouse and Donald Duck (pictured above).

Helloworld Group General Manager Cruise Steve Brady extended his thanks to Disney for its support of the 2024 Cruise Stars reward trip.

“The collaboration with Disney Cruise Line provides a unique opportunity for top-performing agents to experience the magic of Disney at sea, sailing from an Australian port that we know is incredibly popular with Australian cruise travellers,” Brady said. ML
