Cruise & Maritime Voyages rejoins CLIA
Cruise & Maritime Voyages (CMV) has re-joined CLIA as a regional member of Europe and Australasia after quitting three years ago.
Chris Coates, CMV group commercial director, said: "With an expanding ocean fleet and international market presence, we believe the time is right to re-establish links with CLIA and the close working relationship previously enjoyed.
"The expansion of the global industry fleet and carryings bring increased challenges which we consider are best served with all stakeholders working together".
Andy Harmer, CLIA UK & Ireland Director added, "We are delighted to welcome back Cruise and Maritime Voyages as a CLIA cruise line member. As the line grows its fleet and presence across the UK and the world, CLIA looks forward to supporting CMV through our training tools, online resources and travel agent events."
Not all major cruise lines are members of CLIA.
Adventure cruise specialist Hurtigruten left in 2016 and luxury cruise line Viking has never been a member.
