Oceania Cruises and Regent Seven Seas Cruises have strategically appointed Directors of Sales for the Asian market, excluding Japan. This move aims to bolster market presence and optimize sales growth for each brand within the region.

Constance Seck, a seasoned hospitality veteran, will take on the role of Oceania Cruises' director of sales for Asia, operating from Singapore.

In a parallel move, Holly Kong, equipped with over seven years of industry expertise and a strong tourism background, will exclusively represent Regent Seven Seas Cruises as director of sales for Asia, managing operations across Asia from Hong Kong, excluding Japan.

Enhanced support for trade partners

Both cruise lines plan to appoint dedicated sales coordinators in Asia starting 1 January 2024, aimed at strengthening relationships with trade partners.

"This is an exciting move as we continue to expand our presence in the region and further develop the impressive sales performance within Asia,” said Jason Worth, vice president, international sales of Oceania Cruises. “We are confident that having dedicated resources for each line will help us to achieve our growth goals more quickly and better assist our valued trade partners.”

“The Asia Pacific region is a huge passion of mine and plays a significant role in the growth of the luxury cruise market,” said Lisa Pile, vice president sales & general manager Asia Pacific of Regent Seven Seas Cruises. “The appointment of directors of sales dedicated to each individual cruise line underlines our strong commitment to the innovation and development of the brands in Asia.”
