Luxury cruisers urged to use agentsAustralians have much to gainfrom the services of Virtuoso,

an elite group of travel advisors. LUXURY travel network Virtuoso has

appealed to Australian travellers to work with

its 'in-the-know travel advisors' when planning

a holiday involving a cruise.

Speaking with Cruise Weekly, Albert Herrera,

senior vice president, global product

partnerships, said: Each trip from Australia is

a long trip, so a cruise is always combined withsomething else, such as a rail adventure, a

beach resort or an extended stay in a villa.

The experiences we curate are truly best

handled by a knowledgeable advisor, especially

for the savvy cruiser looking for something

unique, something special.

Herrara said the main trends in luxury

cruising were a growth in river cruising,

particularly experiential cruises, such as the

Amazon, extended families booking adjoining

staterooms and earlier bookings to secure

preferred suites.

The company is set to launch a newparticipative website that connects travellers

with the most relevant local advisor.

It will be a collaborative tool that allows

people to look through our product catalogue

and then look through our advisor catalogue to

see who matches what they want, Herrara said.

Because it can be as much fun to plan a trip

as to take one, people like to engage with

someone, talk about their aspirations and

work together to come up with the best

possible personalised holiday.

Meanwhile, in a survey of Australia-based

travel advisors, Myanmar was named 2013's

must-see destination, followed by South

America, Morocco and Bhutan.

Virtuoso's network comprises more than

7,200 travel specialists, including 31 member

agencies in Australia and New Zealand, who

work closely with luxury lines such as

Seabourn, Silversea, Regent Seven Seas,

Crystal Cruises, Paul Gauguin Cruises and APT/

AMA Waterways.

CMV cancels first cruise CRUISE & Maritime Voyages, the company

bringing Astor to Western Australia at the end

of the year, has been forced to cancel the

inaugural sailing of its other recently acquired

vessel, Discovery, after passengers had already

boarded.

According to reports by British media, the

ship was detained by the UK's Maritime and

Coastguard Agency following an inspection inPortland, Dorset.

MCA said the detention notice would remain

in place "whilst the owners and crew

undertake revisions to their safety

management system".

Discoverywas supposed to set sail on a 15-

night cruise to the Northern Lights, in Norway,

but the 657 passengers have been sent home.

The last-minute change comes after an earlier

hitch when the departure was delayed and

switched from Avonmouth in Bristol, apparently

due to bad weather in the Bay of Biscay.

According to CMV, passengers on thecancelled cruise will receive a full refund, 250

compensation and a 40% future cruise discount.

After the technical issue is addressed,

Discovery is expected to sail its next scheduled

cruise on 15 March.
