The Return of the CLIA Conference!

CLIA UK & Ireland are delighted to announce that the 2022 CLIA Conference will be held from May 20-22 in Southampton.

The conference, the 14th to be held and the largest annual travel agent event of its kind in the UK, will include a trade fair, daily conference sessions and a gala dinner.

The first day will offer the chance to visit MSC Virtuosa including the conference opening session, followed by the now infamous trade fair including a great number of cruise lines and associated businesses. The second day comprises a visit to P&O Cruises' Iona including business sessions, guest speakers and an industry update, with a fabulous evening gala dinner to follow at Southampton Guildhall. The final day and closing sessions will be held onboard Royal Caribbean's Anthem of the Seas.

Andy Harmer, CLIA UK & Ireland managing director, said: "With the positive cruise momentum continuing, we're delighted to be able to offer the trade the opportunity to gain the insight and knowledge that will help further support their sales. We have three fabulous ships available to visit, which will further inspire and inform our delegates. We can't wait to welcome partners from across the trade once again, as our flagship event makes a welcome return."

Further details of venues, the theme and speakers will be announced in due course. The event is open to CLIA member travel agents, with registration - including an early bird rate.
