Virgin Voyages boosts agents' commission for December

Virgin Voyages is offering agents up to six percent extra commission for bookings made for the rest of December.

The additional commission will give agents up to 16% for bookings made for Virgin's first cruise ship, Scarlet Lady, by December 31.

Agents - called First Mates by Virgin - will get an additional 3% bonus on fares for new bookings and another 3% for new bookings for sailing in April and May, on top of the standard 10%.

President and CEO Tom McAlpin said: "We see our First Mates as a true extension of our team and recognize their commitment to our brand as valued partners. As Scarlet Lady prepares for her maiden voyage in April, we know our First Mates will play a pivotal role in making her inaugural year a success and we wanted to find more ways to show our unwavering appreciation."

Scarlet Lady will make her maiden voyage in April 2020.
