Azamara Cruises has introduced a new training and incentive program for travel advisors, providing them with the opportunity to earn bonus commissions on 2025 bookings. In order to qualify for this incentive, advisors must successfully graduate from the Azamara World Academy and obtain an Azamara Cruises Expert certificate by October 31. Upon completion, advisors will be eligible to receive a $200 bonus commission for new 2025 Europe bookings made within 30 days of acquiring the certificate. For non-Europe bookings, advisors will receive a $100 bonus commission. This bonus commission can be earned up to eight times per advisor, as long as guests pay a full deposit before November 30.
It is important to note that the bonus commission may be combined with other promotions offered by Azamara Cruises. However, it cannot be used in conjunction with Azamara’s Last Minute Voyages, employee rates, travel agent rates, net rates, interline rates, or group bookings. Additionally, advisors will have the chance to win Azamara Cruises-branded sneakers through a drawing when they sell a 2025 Europe cruise. Double group amenity points can also be earned on new affinity groups.
In addition to the training and incentive program, Azamara Cruises has announced 77 new European itineraries for the 2026 summer season. These itineraries include five first-time port calls in Sarande, Albania; Fredericia, Denmark; Turku, Finland; Menton, France; and Karlskrona, Sweden. The cruise line will also debut two pre- and post-cruise land programs, as well as three solar eclipse cruises.
Azamara Cruises has designed immersive land programs to complement the new European itineraries. For example, a three-night program in Iceland will feature visits to Kerid Crater, the Gullfoss Waterfall, Kerlingafjoll Highlands, the Secret Lagoon of Fludir, and the UNESCO-listed Thingvellir National Park. Another three-night program will focus on ancient civilizations in Egypt and Greece, with activities such as exploring the Khan El Khalili Bazaar in Cairo, visiting the Great Pyramids of Giza, sailing on the Nile for a dinner cruise, and touring the Temple of Poseidon in Athens.
Azamara Cruises is providing travel advisors with an exciting opportunity to enhance their knowledge and earn bonus commissions through the training and incentive program. The addition of new European itineraries and immersive land programs further highlights the cruise line’s commitment to providing unique and unforgettable experiences for guests.
