Crystal has launched a unique contest for travel advisors offering $450,000 worth of prizes. The Crystal Grand Challenge invites advisors in the U.S. and Canada to participate in one of two races: the Crystal Sprint Race and the long-distance Crystal Ocean Race.

“The 2024 Crystal Grand Challenge stands as a testament to our unwavering commitment to excellence and our enduring partnership with travel advisors, both seasoned and newcomers alike,” said Marett Taylor, chief sales officer of A&K Travel Group. “This challenge celebrates their invaluable contributions and reinforces our dedication to providing unparalleled experiences for our discerning guests.”

In the Crystal Sprint, travel advisors who have booked a Crystal sailing since its relaunch are eligible to enter for a chance to win the top prize of $150,000. The first prize will be awarded to the first travel advisor who books 15 2024 cruises by May 31, 2024, with subsequent prizes of $100,000 and $50,000 for two runners up. (Groups and contracts for charters and incentives are excluded. Back-to-back sailings or combo sailings count as one individual booking.)

For travel advisors who have not yet booked a Crystal sailing since the brands relaunch can enter the Crystal Ocean Race. The first of these travel advisors to make 10 bookings for 2024 by Dec. 16, 2024 will win the first prize of $75,000, with prizes of $50,000 and $25,000 for two runners up.

To enter the 2024 Crystal Grand Challenge, advisors should visit the travel advisor portal on Crystal’s website.
