Orange Travel Group has been recognised for its outstanding performance with Aroya Cruises, securing the award for 2nd Top-Selling Agency in the International Markets category during a ceremony held on board AROYA.
The International Markets category encompasses global markets outside the GCC, making this recognition particularly significant given the scale and competitiveness of the regions involved.
A Rapidly Growing Cruise Brand
Launched in late 2024, Aroya Cruises is a premium cruise brand owned by Cruise Saudi, a key entity driving Saudi Arabia’s Vision 2030 initiative. The brand offers a distinctive Arabian-inspired cruise experience on board its modern 151,000-ton ship, designed with an impressive passenger-to-crew ratio of 2:1.
Currently operating in the Arabian Gulf from Dubai, Aroya Cruises will expand its itineraries to the Mediterranean from June, with Istanbul as its homeport. Guests can expect 7-night sailings exploring destinations across the Greek Islands, Turkey and Egypt, before the ship transitions to the Red Sea in mid-September, operating cruises from Jeddah.
A Strong Distribution Network
Orange Travel Group plays a key role in the global growth of Aroya Cruises, holding distribution rights across more than 30 countries, from Germany to Tunisia and Kazakhstan.
Through a network of thousands of travel agency partners, Orange delivers cruise products in eight languages – English, German, Italian, French, Greek, Arabic, Russian, and Maltese, ensuring strong accessibility across diverse markets.
Reinforcing a Leading Position
As a fully Maltese-owned company, Orange Travel Group continues to strengthen its position as one of the leading cruise-selling agencies in Europe, consistently ranking among the top performers in the industry.
This latest recognition further highlights the group’s commitment to excellence, strong partnerships, and continued expansion across international markets.
