Experts of the Infoflot cruise center noted an unprecedented increase among tourists and travel agents to “atypical” cruises: expeditions, luxury cruises and foreign cruise trips on non-trivial routes.

“This year, the Infoflot product line has been replenished with a large number of unusual cruise routes. These include expeditions to the North Pole from Murmansk on an icebreaker, and exclusive cruise routes in Egypt and China, and trips on luxury chamber liners around the world. We observe a high interest in this product from both tourists and agents,” says Andrey Mikhailovsky, CEO of the Infoflot cruise center. 

Throughout the year, Infoflot conducts training events where it talks about foreign and expedition cruises. In February and March, Infoflot experts held the 3rd annual cruise Festival in Moscow, St. Petersburg, Kazan and Yekaterinburg, and at the end of March the 1st Online festival took place, which lasted 3 days and gathered more than 1,000 agents. During the summer of 2024, Infoflot experts held more than 30 events on board ships. 

“Considering the cost of such a cruise and the high agency fee, selling a selective cruise is a great way for an agent to increase his earnings. Thanks to the active development of our training platform, any travel agent can already study such complex cruises and start offering them to tourists,” added Elvira Speshilova, Head of the agency network development department. 

On the ProCruises training platform, you can watch training videos about river, sea and extraordinary cruises and take part in the Infoflot online regatta, a training intensive in which more than 1,000 agents already participate. The final day of the regatta is October 31, new participants will have enough time to catch up with all the stages and compete for the main prize – a cruise on the Astoria Grande liner!

Infoflot provides comprehensive support to partners and shares knowledge. Since the beginning of the season, it has been showing ships and holding events on board. The telegram channel “InfoflotPRO” contains the main cruise news and favorable offers.
