In commemoration of National Travel Advisor Appreciation Month, Aurora Expeditions introduced an incentive offering agents the chance to win a cruise aboard Douglas Mawson, a polar expedition ship, which debuted late last year.

“From now until June 30, 2026, travel advisors who make new bookings on select 2026 or 2027 Europe, Panama Canal and Costa Rica small ship cruises, in conjunction with Aurora Expeditions’ “Companion Travels Free” offer, will automatically be entered into a random draw,” the line said.

Advisors will earn one entry per eligible booking during the promotional period, with no cap on the number of entries they can accumulate.

The incentive is designed to support advisors as they promote Aurora Expeditions’ competitive advantages to their clients, which include, among other things, immersive, expert‑guided experiences in culturally diverse destinations beyond the polar regions.

“Aurora Expeditions has long been known for its small ship exploration in the polar regions, and we are excited to bring that same spirit of discovery to Europe and Central America aboard our brand-new vessel, the Douglas Mawson,” said Beth Mercier, vice president of sales, North America at Aurora Expeditions. “

This incentive is our way of thanking our valued travel advisor partners for their continued support to grow their expedition business with a global specialist like Aurora Expeditions, while giving them the opportunity to experience the Aurora style of small ship cruising firsthand,” she added.
