Jurni Network, in conjunction with preferred cruise
partners and the Cruise Lines International Association (CLIA), today
announced a 45-day marketing campaign to encourage earlier cruise
bookings and promote the cruise industry. "The Wave Starts Now"
promotion will run from September 15 through October 30.
Typically, the busiest time for bookings in the cruise industry
runs from January to March and is known as the "wave season." The
campaign, part of Jurni Network's efforts to bring value to both
members and preferred suppliers, provides benefits to cruise travelers
and members alike.
"Coming off of our best wave season since 2001, we are excited
about 'The Wave Starts Now' and look forward to achieving pre-9/11
cruise booking levels," said Terry L. Dale, president and CEO of CLIA.
"There's no reason cruise travelers have to book only during the
typical January to March wave season. With the targeted marketing
capabilities of Jurni Network and this great promotion, we hope to get
a head start on 2006 bookings."
During "The Wave Starts Now" campaign, travelers who book cruises
will be offered consumer bonuses such as onboard savings booklets,
shipboard credits, savings certificates, reduced deposits, gifts and
Jurni-funded shore excursions.
Jurni members will also be eligible for benefits. In addition to a
chance to attend a Jurni-sponsored Seminar at Sea, Jurni members will
be eligible to win a seven-day cruise, attend weekly Web training
sessions on cruise offerings and sales best practices, and receive
hands-on sales training at one of Jurni's regional conferences being
held in New York, Dallas, San Francisco and Los Angeles during "The
Wave Starts Now" campaign.
Cruise lines participating in the promotion include:
Norwegian Cruise Line -- www.ncl.com
Princess Cruises -- www.princesscruises.com
Royal Caribbean International -- www.royalcaribbean.com
Celebrity Cruises -- www.celebrity.com
SeaDream Yacht Club -- www.seadreamyachtclub.com
"This promotion supports the Jurni mission to be our members'
marketing partner by offering a variety of programs and services that
benefit their business. "The Wave Starts Now" promotion also supports
our commitment to increase the sales of our preferred suppliers," said
Mike Baldwin, CTIE, general manager of Jurni Network. "By sponsoring
this campaign we hope to encourage cruise travelers to book early and
to extend the prime cruise selling season for member agents and
preferred suppliers."
