“We care more about our franchise owners and independent vacation specialists and supporting them is our number one priority and winning these awards speaks volumes to the superiority of our programs as compared to others in the industry,” said Debbie Fiorino, senior vice president of CruiseOne/Dream Vacations and Cruises Inc. “These would not be possible without our forward-thinking headquarters team who every year raise the bar in creating and implementing programs that have a positive impact on the way we do business and support our customers – the network of CruiseOne/Dream Vacations franchise owners and Cruises Inc. independent vacation specialists.”

Gold Winners
Vacation Superhero Referral Program is the first of its kind in the travel agent industry. Proprietary technology created in-house makes it easy for a consumer to recommend their travel agent online and get rewarded with a Visa gift card when their referral books a dream vacation.

Selling Fun!, authored by General Manager of Network Engagement and Performance Drew Daly and available on Amazon, this book provides an overview of making a living selling travel. Travel agents can use it as a guide and learn tips on how to be more successful with their business. Topics included are sales, marketing, networking and the importance of having fun working.

Loyalty Cruise Perks gives consumers an option to select an amenity as a reward for booking their next cruise vacation onboard or within 30 days of returning home. Options include credit toward a shore excursion, Resort for a Day experience or onboard credit.

Silver Winners
The Wanderful Promotion was the first marketing campaign of 2018 and included an exclusive consumer offer that was fully funded by corporate headquarters. The rich promotion offered up to $300 onboard credit on preferred supplier ocean and river cruise bookings or up to $150 in resort credits. The Wanderful promotion led to record-breaking sales and was instrumental in kicking off 2018.

Dream Vacations – Ignite U Franchise Owners Kieran and Sherri Murry of Spanaway, Wash. also were recognized for their innovation in launching their travel agency as a subsidiary of their professional networking membership group.
