Virtuoso has named Lori Sheller as Vice President, Global Cruise, in the latest realignment of senior executives of the luxury travel network.

Since January, luxury cruise veteran, Larry Pimentel has been Virtuoso’s Interim Cruise Program Advisor.

She has held leadership roles at top organisations, including EBG, Swan Hellenic, MSC Cruises USA, Tourico Holidays/Hotelbeds Group and Online Vacation Centre.

In her new role, Sheller will lead Virtuoso’s global cruise strategy, overseeing partnerships with the world’s top cruise lines, driving revenue growth and enhancing the network’s cruise offerings. She will also be responsible for developing new initiatives.

“We are thrilled to welcome Lori to Virtuoso at such an important time in our growth,” said Cory Hagopian, Senior Vice President, Global Partnerships.

“Her strategic vision, leadership and deep industry relationships will be instrumental as we continue to expand our cruise business globally and deliver even greater opportunities for our network.”
