“Music plays on the ship”: Sochi-Sevastopol sea cruises were developed
The company "Black Sea Cruises" has decided on the main agent for the sale of tours and promotion of this route in the tourist market. They will be the tour operator of river cruises company Infoflot. The company said that the main task of the general agent is to sell the cruise through its network of agencies and with the help of new members. Now there is a "contractual company" and the success is already there - sales began on April 6, and more than 300 applications have already been received.
Infoflot is the main agent in this product, the tour operator is the Black Sea Cruises company, a subsidiary of Rosmortport. The aircraft "Prince Vladimir" is currently under repair at the Turkish shipyard, it is translated under the Russian flag, and this will be the only cruise ship fully under the Russian flag, - said the General Director of "Infoflot Moscow" A. Mikhailovsky. Although the liner is not new - built in 1971, but it has been repeatedly renovated. But we, with our experience in selling river cruises, are convinced that a ship cannot be old or new, it can only be fit or unsuitable. The liner has nine decks, five passenger, 330 cabins, a total capacity of up to 900 people.
The cruise plan is planned: “Circular weekly trips along the route Sochi – Novorossiysk – Yalta with a two-day parking lot – Sevastopol – a day at sea – Sochi”. From June 11 on Sundays, Prince Vladimir will leave Sochi and return to Sochi on Saturday morning. At each stop, tourists will be able to board a steamer or go, Mikhailovsky said. The cost starts from 25 thousand rubles, includes accommodation in the cabin, food and use of the ship's infrastructure. The program of excursions (for an additional fee) is in the planning stage.
The result is positive. Since April 6, pre-booking began, all the information in the booking system is available, travel agencies have checked everything and distribute it on their networks, there is a contract company, and at the same time accepting applications. We have already received about 300 applications, Andrei Mikhailovsky said. “The volume is large, this cruise will not be closed by residents of the capitals, the cruise will be available to everyone. All our agencies (more than six thousand) are familiar with the information about the cruise, now we deal with contracts. The booking will be on the site, the expert noted.
