Star Cruises, "The First Global Cruise Line" and "The Leading Cruise Line in Asia-Pacific" is pleased to announce that it has won the "Best Innovative Product" at the Outbound Travel Mart held in Mumbai, India from 8-10 March 2002.
The three-day fair was officiated by the Deputy Chief Minister of Maharashtra, Mr. Chaggan Bhujbhal and saw the participation of various tourism organisations, airlines and travel agencies representing a wide cross-section of outbound leisure products available in the Indian market today.
At the awards ceremony held after the fair, Mr. Sanjeev Aggrawal, CEO of Travel Trade Fair / Outbound Travel Mart presented the award to Star Cruises (India) Sales Manager, Mr. Vijay
Puthran.
"We are pleased with the award received which clearly recognised the quality of Star Cruises' products and services measured against other internationally acclaimed tourism products. This goes to show that Indian nationals have taken a liking to cruising and have shown a preference for the Star Cruises brand, particularly in the Asia-Pacific region for short-haul holidays. Star Cruises' sister brand, Norwegian Cruise Line is also marketed to the more adventurous and seasoned cruisers who may opt for longer cruises in Alaska and the Caribbean," said Star Cruises' Senior Vice President of International Sales and Marketing (Asia-Pacific), Ms. Jean

"We would like to salute the organisers of this fair who have done a great job in raising the awareness of the numerous holiday options abroad. We certainly look forward to the next travel fair.
