THE INTERNATIONAL CRUISE COUNCIL AUSTRALASIA
has launched a new river cruise training
module which is targeted to help agents get a
better insight and understanding of the sector.
“The module examines the history,
development and growth of river cruising as
well as the unique attributes of the vessels,
potential river cruise passengers and the
varied itineraries and exciting sightseeing on
offer,” said ICCA gm Brett Jardine.
“It also includes an in-depth look at major
river cruise destinations from Europe to
Egypt, focusing on embarkation and
disembarkation ports as well as unique and
popular ports along the way,” he added.
The module comes at a time when the
market for river cruising is starting to erupt,
with the latest ICCA figures showing that last
year river cruise numbers from Australia grew
by 12%.
