Aquila Center for Cruise Excellence Launches 2026 Training Wave Season for FCCA Members
Offered free of charge, the 2026 series features three interactive, one-hour webinars built around the “triple bottom line” framework: People, Planet and Profit. Built from Aquila’s Living Lab — where real-world experience meets global training — the sessions are designed to reflect practical insights from across the cruise industry.
The 2026 program, titled “From Ship Calls to Strategic Impact: The 3Ps Applied for Cruise Success,” will be held on three consecutive Wednesdays:
May 7, 2026 | PEOPLE
Inclusion as Competitive Advantage: Practical Actions to Strengthen Diversity, Equity & Inclusion in Cruise Destinations
As expectations around diversity and inclusion continue to rise, this session will explore how destinations and operators can embed inclusive practices into their experiences and partnerships, enhancing both guest satisfaction and business performance.
May 14, 2026 | PLANET
Future-Ready & Competitive: Environmental Strategies for Long-Term Cruise Growth
With environmental sustainability playing an increasingly critical role in cruise line decision-making, this session will highlight actionable strategies to protect natural assets, align with global standards, and position destinations for long-term growth.
May 21, 2026 | PROFIT
Unlocking Hidden Profit in Every Ship Visit: Strategic Shifts to Increase Revenue Per Call
This session challenges traditional measures of cruise success by focusing on revenue optimization. Participants will gain practical insights into pricing strategies, participation rates and data-driven decision-making to maximize profitability.
Participants who complete all three sessions will receive a certificate of completion from Aquila.
The Training Wave Season is part of ongoing collaboration between Aquila and FCCA to provide professional development opportunities for cruise destination stakeholders, including tour operators, port authorities and tourism officials.
