Oelmann-Scheel joined the start-up team at TUI Cruises in 2008 when the joint venture between TUI and Royal Caribbean Group was formed and was responsible for building up the port and ground operations, as well as the shore excursion department.

Ten years on, in 2018, the shore excursion team transformed into the destination management & operations department.

Great teams, valuable relationships with business partners

‘I am grateful that I have been able to always work with wonderful people, form great teams and put together successful departments, and develop many valuable relationships with all our business partners,’ Oelmann-Scheel said.

She played a major role in the expansion of TUI Cruises including the introduction of eight new ships. Oelmann-Scheel travelled the world representing the brand at trade shows, conferences, on familiarisation trips and at association meetings.
