Quark Expeditions is launching a new groups and charters training for travel advisors.

A new specialization module has been added to its advisor learning platform, PolarPRO, to help travel advisors unlock new revenue opportunities.

The new offering gives travel advisors the tools to “deliver extraordinary polar experiences for their clients—whether they’re planning a family reunion, corporate retreat or fully customized private voyage,” says David Marathakis, senior director of the Americas for groups and charters at Quark Expeditions. “By combining expert knowledge, flexible booking terms, and personalized support, we’re making it easier than ever for advisors to grow their business and create unforgettable journeys in the polar regions.”

Within the module, advisors can learn about flexible booking terms, payment options and real-life use cases for maximizing group benefits and commissions. For additional assistance, it also offers AI-driven support and robust training tools. Group bookings are available for parties as small as six guests on select voyages and offer benefits like discounts starting at 5 percent, free berths for larger groups and a dedicated group specialize to guide bookings and customization.

The segment also includes information about how to book a completely private polar voyage and create fully bespoke expeditions. From curated itineraries and themed onboard programming to customized cuisine (including Indian, vegan and gluten-free options), every detail can bring the group’s vision to life.
