YouTube Video Description

If there’s one thing we’ve learned the last ten months, and with many passengers returning to the sea year on year, it’s that cruisers love to cruise.  Two former cruise directors, Anthony Richards (EFFY Jewelry) and Abe Hughes (Royal Caribbean International), have used their experience to keep the community engaged with cruise, be they passengers, crew, vendors, or shoreside personnel. In this webinar, they'll share tips learned throughout their industry experience to continue keeping the cruise community engaged. Tune in to gain valuable insight into why it is essential to maintain the community and hear examples of how best to engage with each group.
