Windstar Cruises offers fam trip places and O2 Arena tickets

Windstar Cruises’ new booking incentive will offer agents the chance to win a place on a fam trip sailing from London and tickets to a show at the O2 Arena.

 

The promotion runs until March 30 to coincide with a revamp of 312-passenger ship Star Pride in drydock in Amsterdam.

 

Agents booking any Star Pride cruise departing between April 21 and May 22 this year will receive two tickets for a 2026 show of their choice at the O2 Arena in London.

 

They also have the chance to join a hosted fam trip from the capital, sailing through Tower Bridge to northern Europe, based on a first-booked, first-served basis.

 

Any subsequent places will be transferred to the next available hosted fam trip, according to the line.

 

All bookings will also qualify for Windstar’s ‘Cruise Beyond’ promotion which finishes on March 31 and offers a complimentary all-inclusive package featuring alcoholic beverages, Wi-Fi and gratuities on selected cruises until March 2027.

 

Head of sales Augustus Lonsdale said: “Star Pride’s April and May post-drydock voyages are particularly exciting as they are all new itineraries.

 

“This makes these incentives the perfect way to celebrate as well as reward our partners who have contributed to such an amazing start to our year.

 

“The first sailings from Amsterdam offer a new take on the famous tulip season and are the ideal way to showcase our appeal to river cruise and city break clients.

 

“Following that, we’re welcoming Star Pride to London for the first time as a Windstar vessel.

 

“It is always special when Windstar yachts sail up the Thames and through Tower Bridge, but this year it carries even greater significance as it not only kicks off our season of short cruises from the capital, but also demonstrates our ongoing commitment to the UK and Irish cruise market.”
