Limited Spaces Remain – Travel Partners Invited to Register Interest via Regent Facebook Page

Regent Seven Seas Cruises®, the world’s leading ultra-luxury cruise line, is reaffirming its unwavering commitment to the travel trade with its largest-ever UK trade engagement initiative. Over 600 travel advisors are set to be welcomed aboard Seven Seas Grandeur this summer during her highly anticipated, inaugural Northern Europe season. Regent’s summer roadshow underscores its belief that travel advisors are true brand ambassadors.

With 12 exclusive ship visits taking place across Southampton, Belfast, Glasgow, and Liverpool throughout June and July, Regent is offering travel partners an extraordinary opportunity to step aboard the newest ship in The World’s Most Luxurious Fleet®. Interested advisors are encouraged to register their interest via the Regent Trade Facebook Group while limited spaces remain.

These curated ship visits are designed to immerse advisors in the signature elements that define Regent’s ultra-luxury experience – from Unrivalled Space at Sea to Epicurean Perfection. Seven Seas Grandeur, the newest member of the fleet, embodies Regent’s relentless Pursuit of Perfection – offering an elevated standard of design, space, dining and service that advisors can confidently share with their discerning clients after visits this summer.

“Regent Seven Seas Cruises thrives when our valued travel partners thrive,” said Paul Beale, Vice President Regent Seven Seas Cruises & Oceania Cruises UK & Ireland Sales. “This record-breaking ship visit programme marks a bold new chapter in our trade engagement strategy – taking it to the next level. With over 600 agents stepping aboard Seven Seas Grandeur this summer, we’re giving them the opportunity to see, touch and feel what sets Regent apart. There’s no substitute for first-hand experience when it comes to selling the most inclusive luxury experience at sea, and we are proud to empower our partners with the tools and insights they need to succeed.”

“The scale and ambition of this summer’s trade engagement programme is massively impressive,” said Steve Odell, Senior Vice President, International and Consumer Sales for Regent Seven Seas Cruises. “It reflects not only the value we place on our agent relationships, but also our commitment to long-term, meaningful partnerships. By inviting over 600 travel advisors aboard Seven Seas Grandeur, we’re reaffirming our dedication to elevating trade engagement – and giving our partners the confidence to position Regent as the gold standard in ultra-luxury cruising.”

Agents stepping aboard Seven Seas Grandeur® this summer will experience first-hand the ship that redefines luxury at sea. Inspired by Regent’s heritage and reimagined for the future, Grandeur embodies the brand’s Pursuit of Perfection — offering unrivalled space, extraordinary service, and transformative design throughout. With only 746 guests and one of the highest space and staff-to-guest ratios in the industry, the ship showcases stunning interiors by Studio DADO, a multi-million-dollar art collection including a bespoke Fabergé Egg, and reimagined dining venues like Compass Rose and Prime 7. From the 4,443 square foot Regent Suite to the beautifully appointed Penthouse Suites, Seven Seas Grandeur has set the standard for the next era of ultra-luxury cruising.

Alongside these in-person events, Regent continues to innovate digitally with its trade-first tools, including Regent Connect – a complimentary co-branding solution that forms part of the Regent Elevate Travel Partner Programme. Designed to enhance client engagement and drive revenue, Regent Connect enables agents to personalise the sales journey while earning the highest commissions in the industry.

Travel advisors interested in participating in this summer’s ship visit events are encouraged to join the Regent Trade Facebook Group and express their interest in attending. Regent is also offering a new online training video, and those interested can request access to it through their relevant sales manager.
