Both 2024 ‘Tropics & Exotics’ voyages to the Caribbean, South America, South Pacific, Africa and the Far East and the ‘Europe & America’ voyages within Northern Europe, Iceland, Greenland, the Mediterranean, the Greek islands, the Holy Lands, Alaska, Canada and Bermuda will be launched simultaneously.

In all, there are more than 350 destinations.

Country-wide presentations

The presentations for travel partners and their key clients will be held in Christchurch on June 8, followed by Wellington, Auckland and Hamilton and will conclude in Tauranga on June 30.

The agents will also be reminded of Oceania’s ‘Book Four and Sail Free’ offer where they receive a cruise for two for every four cabins on 2022 voyages they sell by June 30.

First two-collections launch

‘To launch two collections simultaneously is a first for Oceania Cruises and we are delighted to be hosting events face-to-face again with our valued travel partners and their key clients in New Zealand,’ Jason Worth, VP Australia and New Zealand, said.

‘We are seeing strong demand from the New Zealand market and we are looking forward to inspiring even more excitement and anticipation for the exceptional itineraries and shore excursions within this voyage collection,’ Worth said.
