Selling River Cruising in the New Age of Luxury

How soon will river cruising fully come back and how can travel advisors sell it today? This category has been booming for 20 years, but then the pandemic hit and it was stopped cold. Now it's reemerging slowly as luxury river cruising recover with new health and safety standards. James Shillinglaw of Insider Travel Report moderated a panel with Gary Murphy, vice president of sales and co-owner, AmaWaterways; Jennifer Tombaugh, president of Tauck; Walter Littlejohn, president of Crystal River Cruises; Ellen Bettridge, president Uniworld; and John Waggoner, founder and chairman of American Queen Steamboat Company. This discussion was originally broadcast in June as part of our Virtual Vacation Events-New Age of Luxury virtual show.
