Swan Hellenic has promised travel agent partners now have almost as much to look forward to as their clients with the launch of the cultural expedition cruise pioneer’s new “Luxury Unlocked” promotion.
This will reward them with £100 bonus commission on each stateroom booked, while treating their clients to a free balcony upgrade, gold wi-fi upgrade and $250 onboard credit when they book any from a prime selection of the company’s renowned cultural expedition cruises sailing in 2026. And that £100 bonus commission is in addition to all standard commission normally paid. What’s more there’s no limit to how many of these cruises’ clients can book, giving travel agents unlimited earning potential.
The cruise selection offered is equally generous, with a sumptuous spectrum of 36 very different cultural expedition cruises, providing premium exploration opportunities across Africa, Antarctica, Central America, the Arctic, Europe and Latin America. Departing aboard ice-class boutique expedition ships SH Diana and SH Vega between March and October 2026, the selected cruises also offer a wide choice of durations, ranging from 7 to 20 nights.
So adventurous travellers wanting to explore “beyond ordinary” almost anywhere in the world – experiencing the luxury onboard discovery lifestyle that won Swan Hellenic Cruise Critic’s 2024 Best in Cruise award – now have a new reason to just pull the trigger and live the dream to “see what others don’t”. And travel agents have one more reason to help those dreams come true.
Swan Hellenic’s purpose-built boutique expedition cruise ships boast elegant yet comfortable Scandi-design interiors, extensive outdoor spaces and dedicated expedition facilities. SH Vega accommodates 152 guests in 76 spacious suites and staterooms, the majority with large balconies. While SH Diana accommodates 192 guests in the same distinctive comfort and style in 96 staterooms and suites.
Both ships feature a state-of-the-art gym, spa, panoramic sauna, club room and swimming pool, plus three dining venues, the Swan Restaurant, Club Lounge and Pool Bar & Grill. Created for guests with a passion for adventure and cultural exploration, the company’s meticulously planned itineraries explore the wild landscapes, wildlife, peoples and cultures of the world’s less travelled and most historic regions. Each thoughtfully curated cultural expedition cruise is in addition enriched by the knowledge of renowned experts and expedition guides, who socialise with the guests on board and take them on extraordinary journeys of discovery.
“At Swan Hellenic, we’re committed to supporting the travel trade as true partners,” said Mario Bounas, General Manager UK & Ireland. “This enhanced promo reflects our gratitude, and our belief in the power of early, collaborative success. Together, we’re inviting guests to discover the world differently and ensuring travel agents benefit from every booking.”
