Carnival boosts Northern Ireland trade relationship with new partnership with Travel Solutions – Northern Ireland’s largest tour operator

Carnival Cruise Line has revealed it is working with tour operator Travel Solutions to grow trade awareness and sales in Northern Ireland.

Independent agents will now be able to use Travel Solutions’ platforms to book Carnival packages for their clients.

The Travel Solutions Team

As part of the collaboration, Carnival held a travel agent ship visit in Belfast, on Carnival Legend on August 16. Onboard, more than 30 agents, invited by Travel Solutions, had the opportunity to explore the ship and network with the cruise line’s trade team.

Luke Smith, director, UK & international sales at Carnival, said: “We’re delighted to be working with Travel Solutions to help promote the unique Carnival experience to agent partners in Northern Ireland. We know there is a strong desire from the trade in the region to learn more about our product and we look forward to developing these relationships.”

Carnival Conquest

Peter McMinn, managing director at Travel Solutions, said: “The demand for cruise holidays continues to grow and it is exciting that Travel Solutions can add Carnival Cruise Line to our portfolio of cruise companies. The Northern Ireland traveller now has easy access to the world’s largest cruise line with a range of fly/cruise holidays, with flights from Belfast and Dublin. We look forward to working with the team in growing Carnival sales in the region”.
