They say "No news is good news", but who are 'they'?
Well, the point is - no 'new' news to report in the cruise industry this morning, but we did want to remind all our cruise selling agent subscribers (and suppliers, too!) that we are less than 4 weeks away from the beginning of voting for the 2nd Annual Helmsman's Awards. The Helmsman's Awards are the only cruise industry only awards voted on solely by those in the industry.
Last year, nearly 2,600 cruise selling agents voted in our 1st Helmsman's Awards, and we expect many, many more in 2007!
Which line is your choice for Best Food, Best Onboard Services, Best Entertainment and Best Internet Access (a new category for 2007)?
Which line has the best Group Sales Department, Best Kid's Program, Best Itineraries, Best Shore Excursions and Best Loyalty Program?
(Need a recap of all categories and last year's winners? Go HERE)
Voting begins August 1st and lasts through August 31st. You can only vote once, so make sure your vote counts!
Please remember, Daily Cruise News is dedicated to strengthening and solidifying the relationship between the cruise industry suppliers and the cruise-selling agent distribution system. This is YOUR opportunity to let the suppliers know, in a BIG voice, how they are doing FOR YOU!
And, as always, we want ALL your comments - good and bad. if there is a cruise line that stands out to you, that you recommend every time, or if there is a lin you will not sell - we want to know, and we want to know why.
A special note to our over 22,000+ home based subscribers - we know that sometimes you aren't getting the attention from the suppliers that you deserve. Daily Cruise News is ALWAYS letting them know you are out there and tries to bring you as much diverse industry news and supplier offers as we can. We know you don't want 30 emails a day when Daily Cruise News can bring it all to you in one! It is very important that you vote for this year's Helmsman's Awards and make your voice heard, especially in those categories that affect you the most!
Don't get out and vote - stay in and vote - for the 2007 Helmsman's Awards, coming August 1st.
