Rue du Gabian, Monaco, 2016-1-8 — /Travel PR News/ — Ultra-luxury Silversea Cruises today announced that is has been recognised by Worldwide Cruise Associates as its Top Corporate and Incentive Cruise Partner for 2015.
Each year Worldwide Cruise Associates, a leading supplier of corporate and incentive travel events since 1992, extends the award to its top cruise partner to honour the cruise company’s substantial contributions that assist with the success of Worldwide Cruise Associates.
Steve Bloss, president of sales for Worldwide, said: “Silversea was a natural choice for the award this year. We not only shared our biggest year with a single partner since our inception at over $10 million, we also partnered closely with Silversea to procure a sophisticated and extended full-ship charter for the Olympic Games in Brazil next summer.”
Sean J Mahoney, Silversea’s vice president of corporate and incentive sales, said: “This record year with Worldwide is not only a testament to their value and expertise as a cruise procurement resource, it also demonstrates what can be accomplished with a cruise partner like Silversea that is truly committed to creating unparalleled corporate, incentive, and event experiences.”
