Luxury exploration cruise company Ponant has announced the dates for its 2024 UK and Ireland-wide ship visit programme for trade partners and agents, with registration opening this month.
With over 450 places for travel agents to experience ship visits, the programme, which will take place between April and September 2024 across UK and Irish ports, will include time on board Ponant ships Le Lyrial, Le Boréal, Le Champlain and Le Dumont d’Urville.
This 2024 ship visit programme offers trade partners and agents the opportunity to immerse themselves onboard Ponant ships at one of 12 regional ports in the UK and Ireland: Dartmouth, Cobh, Dublin, Douglas, Aberdeen, Rosyth, Belfast, Glasgow, London, Dover, Cowes and Portsmouth.
Each ship visit will see trade visitors welcomed by the trade team, followed by a short verbal introduction to Ponant, its premium value offering and an overview of the types of sailing offered. Agents will then embark on a full ship tour before tasting onboard gastronomy.
