Cruise Express advisor Malcolm Leyland recently earned $1,000 in Rewards by Viking points after inviting one of his clients to attend a Viking Homelands Virtual Explorer Session.
His client, Linda, was then randomly selected as the major prize winner, receiving a complimentary companion cruise fare valued at up to $15,000.
The result highlights how a client invitation can deliver real rewards, giving travellers the chance to win valuable prizes while helping advisors earn incentives and support the booking journey.
“The Viking Explorer sessions have been a great resource for both myself and my clients. They’re easy for clients to join, packed with useful information and the hosts are relatable, engaging and fun,” said Mr Leyland
“That personal approach goes a long way in helping clients connect with the Viking experience and feel more confident about booking.”
The story comes as Viking prepares to host its final Virtual Explorer Session for 2026, Capitals of Eastern Europe, on September 24.
Advisors who invite clients to attend will give them the opportunity to win a complimentary companion fare valued at $11,000. If their client wins, the advisor will also receive $1,000 in Rewards by Viking points.
