On accepting the prize, Uwe Mohr, Director of Travel Agency Sales at AIDA Cruises, commented: “On behalf of the entire AIDA sales team, I would like to thank all our travel agent partners for the trust and confidence placed in our company on a daily basis by recommending AIDA to their customers. We are absolutely delighted to receive this prize, which shows us that we are able to convince the market through quality and reliability. However, the Globus Award is also an incentive to continue supporting our partners in the most important sales channel, around 10,000 of them, with the best possible service in the area of sales.”
