Oceania Cruises has launched its Oceania trade connect online platform, offering support initiatives to travel partners with the aim of increasing brand knowledge, so agents can sell itineraries successfully.
Agents who sign up to the comprehensive platform will have access to OLife Choice Rewards, training programmes and the opportunity to connect with the Facebook community on the Oceania Trade Insider page. In addition, partners can seek help with their marketing efforts and gain access to assets to ensure that Oceania Cruises can be promoted effortlessly.
