The cruise line named Direct Line Cruises (Hauppauge, NY) its Northeast Region Partner of the Year; Prestige Travel Systems (Tampa, FL) its Southeast Region Partner of the Year; and AffordableTours.com (Stafford, TX) its Midwest Region Partner of the Year for the second consecutive year. These Vacation.com member agencies were selected based on their significant contributions to the overall success of Royal Caribbean – both for promoting the cruise line and increasing sales.

“We are proud of these agencies for earning this recognition,” said Vacation.com President Steve Tracas. “All of our members understand the value Royal Caribbean brings to the marketplace, and they successfully communicate that value to their clients, which leads to cabins booked and loyalties forged.”

Vacation.com was also recognized by Royal Caribbean as its Consortia Partner of the Year.

“We sincerely appreciate this award from one of our top Preferred Suppliers in recognition of the focus our network places on selling their products. In addition, we applaud their sales team for continually presenting new ideas and marketing initiatives to generate more revenue for Royal Caribbean as well as our member agents,” added Tracas.
