Power listing Ranking for GMT - Global Marine Travel

GMT- Global Marine Travel is now #29 on the Travel Weekly Power List 2022, climbing 13 spots over 2021. This is now GMT's fourth year in a row to make the list of the largest, most successful retailers in the travel industry, based on full-year 2021 sales.

The Company’s 2021 developments included:

  • Grew during the pandemic largely due to cruise lines ramping back up their operations. GMT secured several accounts because it has the scale to operate in-house air departments more economically than some cruise lines can.
  • Invested in online booking tools, resulting in increased sales but not overhead.
  • Designed and executed several private air charter operations for cruise lines.
  • Focused on selling hotels in addition to flights more than in the past.

Looking ahead Global Marine Travel feels that the geopolitical events are not helping with the travel recovery from the pandemic. The company is hoping that the stop-start pattern ceases for the sake of its cruise-related business and moving crew around the world.
