In recognition of Travel Advisor Appreciation month, which kicks off today, Viking is rewarding Viking Travel Advisor Academy graduates with $100 per booking bonuses on their Reward Cards.
The offer, which is in effect through May 31, 2025, applies to all types of Viking cruises – from river to ocean to expedition to Mississippi itineraries – and without advisors having to manually track bookings.
Travel advisors can log onto the Viking agent portal at www.viking.com/travel-advisor and complete the Viking Travel Advisor Academy coursework to become Viking Certified Experts. They should click on Viking Rewards to register to qualify for the offer.
Most recently, Viking floated our its latest Nile River ship, the 82-passenger Viking Amun, which is scheduled to make its debut in September 2025.
The company has also ordered two ships from Fincantieri in Italy, Viking Libra and Viking Astrea, which the line said will be the first hydrogen-powered cruise ships.
