Margaritaville at Sea Launches Travel Advisor Certification Program

Margaritaville at Sea has launched a new Certified Margaritaville at Sea Travel Advisor training program. Graduates receive exclusive rewards, perks, and business-building opportunities. 

Now available to registered travel partners worldwide, the program features four training sections that can be completed in less than 90 minutes. Upon completion, graduates earn the professional designation of Certified Margaritaville at Sea Travel Advisor, along with a personalized certificate and certification logo for use across email signatures, websites, and social media.

“Travel advisors have become an essential part of our brand, and investing in their growth remains one of our highest priorities,” said Ron Gulaskey, senior vice president of sales at Margaritaville at Sea. “The launch of the certification program reflects our ongoing commitment to listening, learning, and delivering the resources our advisor partners need to succeed. When advisors feel confident in their knowledge of our brand and in selling it, they’re able to create more seamless, personalized experiences for their clients while growing their own businesses, and that’s a win for everyone.”

In addition to certification and marketing tools, graduates become eligible for a range of exclusive incentives and opportunities, including:

• Booking incentives: Certified advisors receive $50 in bonus commission for all new FIT bookings made within two weeks of earning certification. The first 50 advisors to complete the program will also receive an additional $25 bonus commission on their first FIT booking following certification, for a combined $75 incentive.
  
• Group rewards: Certified advisors receive two additional GAP points for groups booked within one month of earning their designation.
  
• Advisor travel opportunities: Graduates gain access to special perks on travel advisor-rate and FAM sailings and become eligible for invitation-only FAM trips, Seminars at Sea, and select regional events.
  
• Certification assets: Graduates receive a custom certificate of completion, a digital certification logo for use across their own marketing channels, customizable marketing materials featuring the certification logo and, upon request, a Margaritaville at Sea graduate sticker.

The certification program expands Margaritaville at Sea’s growing suite of travel advisor resources and sales initiatives as the cruise line continues to broaden its fleet and reach new travelers.
