Silversea Redesigns Group Sales Program to Focus on Simplicity

Silversea Cruises has introduced Silver Simplicity, its new simplified sales program for groups. Silver Simplicity is available for new group bookings on all future 2014 and 2015 voyages, replacing the Group Amenity Point (GAP) program.

Group travel is a highly lucrative market for travel professionals looking to boost their income. By reaching out to local schools, companies, houses of worship, and other organizations to leverage a group interest or need, agents can maximize their earning potential.
