By: Caribbean Journal Staff

Karisma Hotels and Resorts is launching a new travel agent advisory board, Caribbean Travel Advisor has learned. 

It’s called the Compass Committee, and it will “receive first-hand looks at new product development and innovation across the portfolio and participate in quarterly online meetings and annual on-site events,” with a group of agents, executives and agency owners.

The company’s Gourmet Inclusive Vacation Consultants and Rewards agents can apply for membership on the committee.

In order to be eligible, agents and owners must be “enrolled and active” in Karisma’s Gourmet Inclusive travel agent programs. 

Entries close on May 30, with selections announced on June 15. 

“At Karisma Hotels and Resorts, we have an agent-first commitment,” said Marilyn Cairo, Vice President of Global Sales at Premier Worldwide Marketing. We pride ourselves on collaboration and building a community where everyone is empowered to succeed. We always want to be better partners, and this board will help ensure that. It’s one of the many ways we plan to give back this month and beyond.”

The launch is part of Karisma’s celebration of Travel Agent Appreciation Month, with programming including in-person seminars throughout May, new incentives (double points for bookings made for Nickelodeon and Margaritaville resorts between now and July 31) and virtual scavenger hunts.
