Participating in an exclusive
study tour ‘by invitation only’,
MTA – Mobile Travel Agents
managing directors Karen & Roy
Merricks were recently privy to
the inner workings of Viking Star.
Travelling onboard the inaugural
Viking Ocean Cruises voyage
between Oslo and Stockholm, the
Merricks represented one of only
four invited Australian agencies.
The brand new vessel – fresh
from being christened in Bergen
in May – called in Copenhagen, Berlin, St Petersburg, Tallinn and
Helsinki during the voyage.
“It is just as important for us
as any of our Australia-wide
Members to be updated with
the latest developments taking
place across the industry
and particularly the cruise
industry which is a fast growing
component of our overall
business,” Karen Merricks said.
