Travel Counsellors enjoy a 'Summer of Love'

The ’Summer of Love’ features a series of exclusive fam trips and experiences with Disney throughout the summer. It kicked off the CLIA conference, where Disney Destinations International hosted a special pre-conference session highlighting the wonders of Disney Cruise Line. Following this, in Manchester, over 30 Travel Counsellors and support team members took part in an immersive Disney training session, which culminated in a mesmerising performance of Disney’s Aladdin.

Central to the initiative were several fam trips, starting with a magical stay at Disneyland ® Paris for eight TCs, enabling them to explore the parks and resorts first hand. The highlight of the ’Summer of Love’ was the Ultimate Walt Disney World Fam Trip supported by co-sponsor, DoSomethingDifferent.com, where 16 Travel Counsellors and a support team colleague experienced the best of Walt Disney World Resort in Florida. This exceptional trip focussed on the value of the Disney Magic Ticket, along with the current Free Dining and Drinks offer and combined a luxurious stay at Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort and Spa with an exclusive visit aboard Disney Cruise Line’s newest cruise ship, the Disney Wish, showcasing the breadth of Disney’s offerings. 

Charlotte Helstrom, a Travel Counsellor who went on the Walt Disney World Resort in Florida trip, shared her thoughts on the experience: "I was thrilled to be part of the team on the Walt Disney World trip, as I got to spend time with my colleagues and friends while being truly spoiled by the exceptional Disney team. Experiencing it firsthand was amazing and will only help me to further provide expert advice and personal recommendations to my customers, ensuring every Disney holiday I book is magical."

Looking forward, August and September offer more experiences with Disney Cruise Line, featuring ship visits aboard the Disney Dream as she returns to Europe with magical sailings from Southampton. These visits will allow Travel Counsellors to deepen their understanding of Disney Cruise Line’s offerings.
