Unlock The Ultimate Arctic Experience: Quark Expeditions Announces Travel Advisor Competition

Published on December 18, 2025

The travel Industry has been impacted by the Covid Virus, and Quark Expeditions, a cruise line specializing in polar adventures, has launched its “This is Polar Competition” to reward travel advisors who have made the most sales and, to some degree, reestablish the polar adventures travel offerings. Travel Advisors are being awarded what should be a once-in-a-lifetime promo, a fully subsidized expedition to the Arctic region of Norway, Svalbard. This promo is part of the Waves Season Campaign Quark Expeditions’ run in the travel industry, which aims to provide savings to travel advisors and their clients due to the Covid Virus impact.

The Svalbard Explorer Voyage

The Svalbard Explorer: Best of Arctic Norway, a cruise line of the Archipelago Svalbard which is characterized by its waterfalls, mountains, Glaciers, and wildlife and has the motivation of the “Wildlife Capital of the Arctic”, over an eleven expedition to Norway, is aimed at providing the coastal travelers of the Arctic some of the most untouched, and remote regions of the world. For the winning travel advisors, the cruise is scheduled to take place between June 7 and June 17. The explorer aims to deliver to the clients an appreciation of the great Svalbard on the cruise and aims to inform and educate on the region’s conservation and ecology.

The participants of this amazing landscape will be guided by Quark Expeditions’ knowledgeable expedition team. The advisors will receive essential firsthand experience of the polar areas that they will be able to communicate to their clients. This is a special chance to travel to an area that very few will be able to experience.

How Travel Advisors Can Take Part

Travel advisors do not need to do much to join the contest. They have to sign up for the competition and then start to earn points. They can receive points through a range of actions like booking repeat passengers, making reservations for the Arctic 2026, and attending Wave Season webinars. On top of this, trainers can receive points by finishing PolarPRO, which is a program meant to increase participants’ polar expedition knowledge. Winning the competition can become more probable by submitting more points. Advisors are encouraged to participate in a range of activities.

Travel advisors get five entries for booking repeat passengers, three for Arctic 2026 bookings, and two for other bookings. One entry is also given for attending the Wave Season webinar, and one for completing PolarPRO. This system encourages advisors to participate in all elements of the competition so they can book more than one reservation and get more chances to book the coveted Svalbard voyage.

The Prize: A Journey into the Arctic

The winners of this voyage will be travel advisors and will be one of six who will get to travel to the Arctic in June of 2026. Svalbard is known for its natural beauty and diverse wildlife, including polar bears and reindeer, as well as various bird species. Travelers to the destination can also enjoy and explore dramatic landscapes, including glaciers, fjords, and other adventurous and natural scenery. This voyage is the perfect experience for an outdoor lover!

Advisors who take part in these voyages learn about the polar regions and gain knowledge and skills that they can use to encourage clients to book future trips and expeditions and work with Quark Expeditions. Each of these wins provides a training-based competition with the extra benefit of travel to one of the most remote and beautiful places on earth.

Wave Season Savings for Advisors and Clients
