Silversea cruises prides itself on being a world apart from all other luxury holidays - just ask new Liverpool manager Kenny Dalglish.
King Kenny returned to his Reds throne only weeks ago but the living legend was enjoying a sophisticated break at sea when he received the rallying call from the club’s American owners.
Relaxing in a world of award-winning elegance, Dalglish only lasted five days of the week-long cruise on board the Silver Wind in the Arabian Gulf before being given the chance to take charge of the team he left two decades earlier.
Silversea’s Senior Vice President for the UK, Ireland and the Middle East, Trudy Redfern who was hosting the Exotic Kingdoms of the Arabian Gulf cruise, recalls the moment the news came through.
She said: “Kenny was ecstatic when he received the call that he had the job until the end of the season.
“He had a beaming smile. You could tell he was over the moon.”
In a desperate attempt to secure the new Liverpool boss’ safe passage back to the UK, Liverpool fan Mrs Redfern worked tirelessly through the night.
Her first task was to find a fax machine so a contract could be sent through.
But that was not all. The luxury cruise line that is known for its accent on space, privacy and unhurried elegance, rushed Dalglish to shore to catch a flight from Bahrain to Dubai then Dubai to Manchester.
A job expertly done – complimented by wife Marina who saluted the company on Twitter: “Trudy Redfern of Silversea Cruises has been a star.”
You are invited to experience, like Kenny, the extraordinary world of award-winning Silversea, a world of elegance and casual sophistication and the benchmark of luxury cruising.
