Virtuoso names 2025 Cruise Icons
Luxury agent network Virtuoso has unveiled details of its 2025 Virtuoso Cruise Icons, honoring advisors whose sales performance excels within the industry.
A group of 185 advisors from 13 countries worldwide have received the Virtuoso Cruise Icon designation, which is up 27% increase from 2024.
It recognizes advisors who generate the top one percent of the network’s cruise sales.
A full list of the 2025 Virtuoso Cruise Icons is here.
The Cruise Icon program went global in 2023, and sales have continued to rise across Virtuoso’s various regions each year.
From 2023 to 2024, their Virtuoso preferred supplier cruise production saw an estimated 45% increase, reflecting significant growth in the US and Canada.
“The 2025 Virtuoso Cruise Icons set an extraordinary standard in their field, and I congratulate them on this well-deserved recognition,” said Virtuoso’s SVP, Global Member & Partner Sales Cory Hagopian.
“This distinction elevates their standing with our partners and reinforces their industry prominence with clients.”
The Cruise Icon recognition provides advisors with quarterly collaboration sessions designed to foster growth and networking as well as a private dinner during Virtuoso Travel Week.
Icons also gain access to exclusive travel opportunities, such as the inaugural season of PONANT EXPLORATIONS’ Le Commandant Charcot through Canada’s St. Lawrence River during the boreal winter.
Hosted by Samuel Chamberlain, PONANT EXPLORATIONS CEO of Americas, the 2024 Cruise Icons recently embarked on a journey through the St. Lawrence River from 22 February to 6 March 2025.
Many Virtuoso cruise partners offer exclusive amenities to Virtuoso travel advisors, enabling affiliated advisors, including Virtuoso Cruise Icons, to provide unique benefits to their clients.
The Virtuoso Voyages program gives access over 450 select cruises each year across 13 different cruise lines.
