SeaLink Marine & Tourism recently announced the appointment of Connect2India as its new trade distribution representative for India.
This partnership comes at a pivotal time as India’s outbound tourism market has surpassed pre-COVID levels of visitor arrivals to Australia.
Driven by the country’s expanding middle class, Indian tourists are increasingly seeking unique and high-quality travel experiences and destinations. By tapping into this growing demand, SeaLink aims to showcase its unique destinations and experiences to a high-value Indian audience.
SeaLink general manager for global sales and distribution Richard Doyle commented: “We are thrilled to partner with Connect2India as our in-market sales representative for India. With the rapid growth of India’s outbound tourism, we are confident that SeaLink’s unique experiences at Australia’s iconic holiday destinations will resonate with Indian travellers.”
Doyle went on to say that Connect2India’s strong relationships with key Indian travel trade partners, coupled with their expertise in consumer trends, make them the perfect partner to help the cruise firm expand its presence in the Indian market.
Based in Mumbai, Connect2India is part of the Gaibo Agency group, and is one of the few Australian-owned agencies operating in India. The company is known for promoting leading Australian tourism brands.
