Albatros Expeditions entrusts Blue Water with cruise agency
Case
Blue Water is always quick to respond to our queries with advice, no matter the time of day
Steffan Danino, Product Manager at Albatros Expeditions
This year, prior to repositioning to Arctic waters, Albatros Expeditions planned several port calls in eight Northern European countries where they do not normally call. To ensure a smooth process, the expedition cruise operator appointed Blue Water as its regional hub agent to coordinate the port calls.
“As Albatros Expeditions’ agents we appointed local agents and make sure all bookings and permissions were in place. When changes to the sailing schedule occurred, it was up to the team at Blue Water to make the puzzle come together by suggesting new destinations”, explains Pernille Marcussen, Operations Manager Port Agency & Cruise at Blue Water. Fortunately, the agency tasks were carried out well and to the great satisfaction of the client:
"Blue Water is always quick to respond to our queries with advice, no matter the time of day. When it came to organising complex itineraries and handling last-minute changes, Blue Water was our first point of contact. They also helped us to arrange the Christening for our vessel which went off without a hitch. Additionally, as a Scandinavian company, we appreciate having a local partner with a global reach to assist us in our worldwide operations”, says Steffan Danino, Product Manager at Albatros Expeditions.
Christening of the expedition vessel “Ocean Albatros”
Blue Water had the great privilege of managing this ship’s inaugural call to Copenhagen, which involved the official naming and Christening of the state-of-the-art expedition vessel "Ocean Albatros" at Copenhagen Malmö Port in May.
