Superfast Ferries recently invited several port agents on a three-day familiarization trip to Italy. The group, made up of company executives from several departments and Adriatic coast port agents from Patra, Igoumenitsa, Corfu, Bari and Ancona, boarded Superfast V for Bari.

Workshops and presentations took place in the ship’s conference room during the trip where several issues were discussed focused on improved customer services in anticipation of the busy summer period. Upon arrival at Bari, the group visited Alberobello, a small town in the Puglia region famous for its trulli constructions. After tasting local delicacies, the group shopped at Bari and boarded Superfast V for their return journey.
