The contest is on Carnival's trade Facebook page
Carnival Cruise Line's 'What’s Your Carnival IQ?' contest for travel agents offers gift cards and the chance to win one of five Caribbean cruises.

The contest launched today on Carnival's trade Facebook page and runs throughout February. The daily three-question, multiple-choice quiz is designed to test agents’ knowledge of Carnival’s brand and on-board experience.

Each day Carnival will choose 15 agents at random from among those who correctly answered the questions via Facebook Messenger to instantly win a $25 Amazon gift card. At the conclusion of the contest, the line will select 10 finalists at random from all daily participants to win a $100 Amazon gift card, and five grand prize winners will get a seven-day Caribbean cruise for two.

Agents who participate in the contest every day will also automatically win a 'Choose Fun' T-shirt and bumper sticker.

'We know how hard travel agents are working during wave season, so we came up with a trivia contest that will give them nearly 375 chances to win more than $10,000 in gift card prizes and one of five free cruises throughout the month,' said Carnival’s Adolfo Perez, SVP sales & trade marketing. The questions, he added, are 'a mix of facts many agents will know easily, along with some guestimate-style challenges that add an element of fun.'

The 'What’s Your Carnival IQ' contest is the line’s latest addition to #thelist, which includes recent agent initiatives that are part of the line's 'Travel Agents Rock' program.
