The pioneer in international cruise travel, Norwegian Cruise Line (NCL), today declared that it will pay commission to travel agents on non-commissionable prices (NCFs), demonstrating its industry-leading dedication to the travel agent community globally.
NCL is the first significant modern cruise line to pay travel agents on NCFs for reservations made after the 120-day deadline has passed. Norwegian Cruise Line has made a commitment to being the simplest cruise line to do business with since the inception of the Brand’s Partners First attitude by offering agents marketing resources, promotions, and educational tools to assist them to expand their companies.
“Our Partners First philosophy remains top of mind, and our decision to pay commission on NCFs is further proof of our commitment to this community,” said NCL President and CEO Harry Sommer. “We want our partners to thrive; we want to see their businesses grow all around the world.”
The Cruise Line has made a commitment to giving the community of travel agents the resources and knowledge they need to offer their customers first-rate service. With a closer relationship with their customers and greater brand loyalty as a result of this ground-breaking decision, travel partners will be better able to generate repeat business and boost their earning potential.
The payment of NCFs will go into effect on Jan. 1, 2023, for new reservations made 120 days prior to sailing for cruises departing May 1, 2023, and forward. To qualify for the NCF commission, travel advisors will need to submit a marketing plan to their NCL Sales Support Team by Dec. 31, 2022.
