As part of its overhaul and new brand awareness, a UK sales team is being put together for Azamara Cruises. Bookings were previously done through parent company Royal Caribbean Cruises, but the new look Azamara Club Cruises is now offering exclusive bookings and exciting new options for their passengers. This is a great onshore cruise job opportunity that you can get if you enjoy working on land in the travel and tourism industry.
Azamara will not only offer its passengers a better cruise experience, but they will also create a more relaxed cruise experience, adopting the tag line, “You’ll love where we take you”. Added benefits include an offer of wine included in the cost of dinner, as well as all gratuities. To add to the relaxing atmosphere, the itineraries of the cruise ships will change slightly. The focus is going to be more about spending time at each port instead of rushing to as many as possible. This means that there will be more overnight stays at ports including Istanbul, St Petersburg, Sorrento, Singapore, and Bangkok. These changes are expected from about April 2010 when the company becomes mainly all inclusive. This will see the prices rise by 6 to 12 percent, but this will still make Azamara Club Cruises an excellent value for money choice.
The majority of people are looking forward to the new changes and especially the inclusion of Britain and Ireland in the sales for Azamara Club Cruises. This change has been a long time coming, because after its release in 2007, the global recession hit hard and Royal Caribbean’s focus was on promoting its Oasis of the Seas. Many passengers also looked to Celebrity Cruises’ new Solstice class of cruise liners for a well known affordable option.
Now, Azamara Club Cruises will be able to offer passengers excellent deals and great service on both of their ships, namely the Azamara Journey and the Azamara Quest, which each carry 694 passengers. They will visit all the top cruise destinations and their new dedicated sales team will be ideal for increasing its customer base in Ireland and Britain. Currently there is a dedicated team of eight working in the United States.
Along with the new sales team jobs, Azamara is also looking to retrain and hire butlers that provide an English style service, which will only be made available to suite passengers. You can also expect to find various other cruise ship job openings that are available in preparation for the April re-launch.
