  Cruise.co.uk to open cruise and stay packages to the trade - News & announcements

    Cruise.co.uk has announced it will launch its full range of cruise and stay packages to the trade in the third quarter of this year. The cruise specialist has over 1,800 packages it will make available to agents, covering all seven continents. They range from seven to 38 nights, with prices starting from £849pp. Cruise.co.uk unveiled an initial partnership with Not Just Travel last month, with 'Thrill and Chill’ departures - which combine sailings from Florida with theme park stays - available for the specialist homeworking network to sell by the end of March. Additional North America packages are due to be added shortly. As part of the initiative, Lee Johnson has been promoted to head of trade sales. He was formerly North America package manager, having previously worked his way up from sales consultant to sales manager, via inventory planning roles. A full trade sales support team will now be appointed, which Lee will head up. The team will comprise business development managers for the north and south, a trade sales manager, five trade sales executives and a trade marketing lead. Recruitment will start shortly. Tony Andrews, cruise.co.uk managing director, said: "Opening our cruise and stay portfolio to the wider trade marks a significant strategic milestone. We’ve invested heavily in building a truly global, end-to-end product offering, and this move reflects our commitment to sharing that expertise with agency partners nationwide." Lee Johnson said: "I look forward to leading our trade sales strategy. Having worked at cruise.co.uk for almost 14 years in several roles I am well placed to promote our brand and products to the trade. "We have a strong focus on customer experience and a unique portfolio of worldwide cruise and stay packages, many of which have an escorted element. We deliver unparalleled, complete travel experiences that were previously inaccessible to other agents. Our aim is to open up our entire cruise and stay portfolio to every agent in the UK and become the most trusted and innovative partner for these packages."

  Cruise demand grows as holidaymakers plan to spend more time at sea - News & announcements

    A new customer survey from cruise specialist cruise.co.uk has revealed rising loyalty to holidays at sea, with 75% of respondents taking at least two voyages per year.   And over a third (35%) said they plan to take a higher proportion of cruises in the future, marking an increase on 2025 of 17%. Meanwhile, 51% of first-time cruisers plan to sail again.   Younger travellers are showing the strongest growth in intent. Among under-35s, 41% said they expect to take a higher proportion of cruise holidays over the next two years, up from 36% last year.   Tony Andrews, managing director of cruise.co.uk, said: “These results highlight just how embedded cruising has become for a large part of our customer base. Seeing such a high proportion of travellers taking multiple cruises each year, and planning to increase that further, speaks volumes about the value, variety and ease that a holiday at sea offers.   “What’s particularly encouraging is the intent we’re seeing from both younger and first-time cruisers. Once people experience how easy it is to visit several destinations in one trip, without sacrificing comfort or value for money, cruising quickly becomes the go-to holiday choice.”

  Caribbean tops Christmas wish list as appetite for festive cruising rises - News & announcements

    A customer survey by cruise specialist cruise.co.uk has revealed that 71% of travellers are open to taking a holiday at sea during the festive period. One in five respondents (20%) say they are 'definite' they will embark on a Christmas cruise within the next two years.   83% would opt for an ocean voyage, compared to 17% who would choose a river cruise.   For ocean itineraries, the Caribbean emerged as the most popular festive destination, with 24% favouring its warmer climate and beach getaways. The Mediterranean followed closely behind at 22%, with the Canary Islands third on 19%.   On the river, the Danube proved the standout choice, as selected by 39% of respondents. The Rhine was next at 29%, followed by the Seine on 23%.   The most appealing aspect of a Christmas cruise is 'a hassle-free holiday with no planning', with over one-third (35%) selecting this as their primary reason for sailing. 'A warm-weather Christmas' came in next at 17%. Meanwhile, 16% went for 'escaping the usual Christmas routine', and the same number 'exploring different destinations at Christmas'.   Tony Andrews, managing director of cruise.co.uk, said: “Our results clearly show that Christmas cruising is becoming an increasingly attractive option for a broad range of travellers. For many, the appeal lies in removing the stress that can come with the festive season, while still enjoying a memorable holiday - particularly as cruise ships embrace the festive season onboard with seasonal dining, themed entertainment and special celebrations.   “The strong demand for the warm weather of the Caribbean, alongside continued interest in classic European itineraries, reinforces the wide range of choice for holidaymakers - whether that’s sunshine, sightseeing or simply switching off.”   The survey was completed by almost 500 customers.

  Value for money driving interest in world cruises - News & announcements

    A survey from online cruise specialist cruise.co.uk has revealed that value for money is the key factor when it comes to booking a world cruise.   The research found that for almost 50% of respondents, the overall cost of a world cruise is the most influential consideration in their booking intentions, followed by the destinations visited during the itinerary (22%).   The findings come after P&O Cruises' recent winter 2027 and spring 2028 launch, which includes the line's longest world cruise to date.   In addition, 58% of those asked chose ‘all-inclusive pricing and packages’ when asked what would increase the appeal of a world cruise, with 13% looking for exclusive excursions and cultural experiences, and 12% preferring smaller, more intimate ships.   A majority (47%) stated their ideal duration of cruise was one to two months, with 22% preferring three to four months at sea.   Overall, 43% of those asked are either ‘very or quite’ interested in taking a world cruise in the future, with 26% undecided.   Tony Andrews, managing director of cruise.co.uk, said: “Travellers are seeking unforgettable experiences at sea without compromising on financial peace of mind. It’s clear that today’s guests want both adventure and assurance that every pound spent delivers outstanding value. This is what world cruises - with exceptional destinations, extended itineraries and so much included upfront - provide in ways that land-based alternatives cannot compete with.”

  Enhanced cabins and more space top passenger wish list for latest cruise ships - News & announcements

    Cruise travellers are most tempted by new ships that offer enhanced cabins, larger public areas and original entertainment options, according to findings released by cruise.co.uk.   The online cruise specialist surveyed 1,200 customers to find out what makes them want to sail on the latest ships. Top of the list was upgraded accommodation, chosen by 28% of respondents, followed by more space and expanded public areas (25%), and refreshed entertainment and shows (16%).   Flashier features such as waterparks and ‘bragging rights’ had less pull and were selected by just 10% and 2% respectively.   Nearly 40 ocean and river cruise ships are setting sail for the first time this year, including Royal Caribbean International’s Star of the Seas, Virgin Voyages’ Brilliant Lady, MSC World America, Princess Cruises' Star Princess and Disney Destiny.   When it comes to brand loyalty, only 15% said they would stick to their favourite cruise line when trying out the latest ships. Most respondents - 85% - said they’re happy to explore different cruise lines if it means experiencing something new.   The survey also revealed that most travellers aren't swayed purely by the novelty factor. Just 10% said they were more likely to book a cruise simply because a ship is new, with the majority either indifferent (75%) or preferring more established options (16%).   Tony Andrews, managing director of cruise.co.uk, said: “It’s clear that travellers are drawn to the added comfort and upgraded experiences that newer ships can bring. Extra space, enhanced cabins and improved facilities evidently make a difference when passengers are planning a holiday at sea.   “And loyalty to cruise lines doesn’t necessarily dictate where customers will book. People want the best value and experience for their money, and they’re open to shopping around to get it.”

  Music, food and culture: Passengers reveal top picks for themed cruises - News & announcements

    40% of passengers are interested in taking a themed cruise, according to a new survey from online cruise specialist cruise.co.uk.   Themed cruises are itineraries designed to focus on a specific subject or topic, including history, sports, wellness and fitness, and TV and film. Onboard activities can include appearances and talks from subject experts, and shore excursions designed to showcase the theme.   Of the 1,000 customers asked, just 10% had taken an itinerary of this kind, indicating the potential for future demand.   A music-focused voyage topped respondents’ preferred theme, taking 38% of the votes, with food and drink on 23% and history and culture 20%.   Tony Andrews, managing director of cruise.co.uk, said: “This interest in themed cruises reflects a shift toward more personalised and immersive travel experiences, where entertainment, hobbies and pastimes form a key part of the experience. From music and food to wellness and film, themed cruises are now a key part of the cruising landscape, providing yet another reason for repeat guests to book again or for new-to-cruise travellers to take their first holiday at sea.”

  Solo cruising on the rise - News & announcements

    An annual survey from cruise specialist cruise.co.uk has revealed that single travellers now make up 5% of the cruise market. The findings were drawn from a survey of over 8000 cruise.co.uk and seascanner.co.uk customers, highlighting key trends in the cruise landscape.   The research also found that solo cruisers are highly likely to recommend the experience, with 70% stating they would encourage friends, family or colleagues to embark on a solo sailing.   When it comes to booking decisions, solo cruisers have similar priorities compared to those sailing with companions. Price and itinerary ranked as the most important factors for the majority of both sets of travellers, ranging between 60% and 70%. Cabin selection and onboard facilities are more of a concern to around 50% of those polled.   Results from respondents when asked: “When booking your next cruise, how important or unimportant are each of the following factors to you?”  

  	Price		Itinerary		Cabin		Onboard Facilities
  	Solo	Non-solo	Solo	Non-solo	Solo	Non-solo	Solo	Non-solo
  Important (9-10)	69%	65%	63%	62%	49%	54%	45%	52%
  Neutral (6-8)	24%	29%	29%	32%	40%	39%	43%	42%
  Less Important (1-5)	7%	6%	8%	6%	11%	7%	12%	6%

    Tony Andrews, managing director of cruise.co.uk, said: “We’re seeing more solo travellers embracing the cruise experience, and it’s clear that affordability and the destinations visited are key drivers for this market. As the popularity of cruise continues to grow across the board, we expect cruise lines to further cater to this growing segment, with more tailored offerings and competitive pricing.”

  Cruise.co.uk introduces online booking - News & announcements

  Cruise specialist cruise.co.uk has rolled online booking functionality. Until now, customers were only able to complete their booking via telephone or over email. This still remains an option, alongside the new online booking function. Cruise.co.uk says it will expand customers’ choice and streamline the booking process.

Tony Andrews, cruise.co.uk MD, said: “We’re always looking at ways to improve our customer service and the introduction of online bookings is a natural step forward.” “We know that many customers are comfortable using these systems, but for us it’s important that we do not lose the human touch.” In 2024 cruise.co.uk celebrated its 40th anniversary. It has almost 32,000 voyages available, sailing from the UK and overseas. It offers itineraries to the Mediterranean, northern Europe, Caribbean, Australasia, Alaska and Asia.
