The Cruise Professionals organises FAM to Japan for travel agents

The Cruise Professionals recently organised a FAM (Familiarisation) trip for select travel agents and media onboard the Diamond Princess, sailing from Tokyo to ancient Japanese cities. The nine-day cruise covered cities of historic and cultural importance, namely Kanazawa, Maizuru, Sakaiminato and Kagoshima in Japan, and the city of Busan in Korea. The trip had a group of over 200 delegates from travel agencies and media from countries in Asia, Europe and South America. The FAM was undertaken to promote Princess Cruises’ new deployments in Asia, including China, Japan and Singapore, according to a release.

Nishith Saxena, Director, The Cruise Professionals, said, “It is our endeavour to provide our travel and media associates the same cruise experience as any passenger who would sail onboard a Princess Cruises ship. Only once you are onboard a Princess ship, you begin to realise the overall supremacy in service, food and entertainment it has over other cruise lines. We are extremely happy with the words of appreciation from our travel agency associates as they have experienced Princess Cruises hospitality first hand and we thank them for their continued support for Princess Cruises.�
