Tirun Travel Marketing has announced a strategic partnership with Air India to introduce integrated packages combining flights and cruises. This initiative will offer Indian travellers a seamless journey connecting Air India and Air India Express flights with cruise holidays from the Tirun portfolio.
Connecting flights with cruise itineraries
The collaboration, which formally commenced in November, marks another step toward simplifying international cruise vacations for Indian travellers. By integrating domestic and international flight connections with cruise itineraries to destinations such as Singapore and Hong Kong (initially), and with plans to expand to Sydney, Los Angeles, and destinations across Europe, the program ensures end-to-end convenience, from a traveller’s home city to the embarkation port and back.
Meeting the growing demand for curated experiences
The initiative reflects the growing appetite among Indian travellers for curated, all-inclusive experiences that merge air travel and leisure seamlessly. With both partners focused on delivering world-class journeys, the program complements India’s rapidly evolving outbound travel landscape. It also empowers travel agents and tour operators across the country with a ready-to-market, air-inclusive cruise product, reducing logistical complexities and expanding the reach of international cruise vacations.
Comment from Tirun CEO
Speaking on this partnership, Varun Chadha, CEO, Tirun Travel Marketing, said, “The Fly-Cruise program bridges the gap between doorstep and deck by creating a single, seamless travel experience. With Air India’s extensive connectivity and our world-class cruise portfolio, we’re making travel planning simpler- a top priority on today’s traveller’s wish list. Together, we continue to add value to the way India travels and vacations.”
