CARNIVAL Corp is continuing to restructure its sales operations in Australia, with the abrupt departure of Holland America Line (HAL) and Seabourn Cruise Line National Sales Manager Nikki Glading.
The Carnival stalwart had been set to meet with key industry partners at Virtuoso Travel Week in Las Vegas, but her appointments are being taken instead by Jennifer Compton, and recently appointed Seabourn Marketing Lead Catherine Rynd.
Seabourn’s Vice President of Global Sales Steve Smotrys told Cruise Weekly he will now have more involvement with the local operation.
The company just last month confirmed the shock departure of long-time HAL/Seabourn Sales Director, Tony Archbold (CW 18 Jul).
Carnival Australia acknowledged that a restructuring of the business was in progress “to align the sales focus”, with a spokesperson saying a more full picture would be provided as the restructure takes shape.
Other departures from the brand include Seabourn Senior Marketing Manager, Brendan Wall, who has resigned to take up another role in cruise.
