Luxury small-ship cruise line, Aqua Expeditions, has announced a new partnership with the Flight Centre Travel Group (FCTG), becoming a preferred supplier of the travel agency network.

The partnership will allow guests to book Aqua Expeditions’ luxury cruises through FCTG’s network of travel agencies including their flagship brand as well as their luxury-focused brands including Travel Associates, Luxury Travel Collection, and Envoyage.

Partnering with FCTG as a preferred supplier will also see Aqua Expeditions receive priority placement and visibility across FCTG’s network of travel consultants. With over 450 agencies in Australia alone, this partnership will allow Aqua Expeditions to showcase their unique small ship expeditions to a broader clientele.

For Flight Centre Travel Group, the partnership grants access to Aqua Expeditions’ premium products within their system. Travel consultants across the FCTG network will be able to book Aqua Expeditions’ cruises, access a comprehensive set of sales resources, participate in webinars, and work closely with the Aqua team.

Travellers will be able to enlist the services of FCTG’s knowledgeable travel consultants, who can provide expert guidance and personalised recommendations, and also arrange flight itineraries and hotel accommodations.

This partnership will make it more convenient than ever for guests to embark on Aqua Expeditions’ voyages, currently spanning seven destinations with a fleet of five.

“With an aim to expand our presence in the Australian luxury travel market, we are pleased to announce this partnership with Flight Centre Travel Group,” founder & CEO of Aqua Expeditions, Francesco Galli Zugaro, said.

“We constantly strive to ease the booking process for both our existing and prospective guests, and this partnership will serve as another key step towards this goal.”
