Land Tour Vendors – Cruises Inc contracts for our cruise customers !
Land Tour Vendors – Cruises Inc contracts for our cruise customers !
There were
basically 3 reasons, why I choose
Cruises Inc 25 years ago (FYI, they had to approve me too).
·
Specialized in cruises. They were devoted to the cruise
industry. Not only for having a personal relationship, but in
serving on the boards, for many years, in trying to help improve the industry,
for the benefit of the cruiser.
·
The regular travel agent, or at least in my
area, knew very little about cruises.
Not only, no one specialized in this area, but it seemed, that no one
had even taken a cruise. Since I had
discovered, for myself, this was the vacation that “truly took me away”, then
for myself, I needed to understand this industry. And better yet, have a close-knit
relationship, that I would never get, if connected to a local agency !
·
Cruises Inc didn’t focus on other travel. Our mind would be able to stay focused on one
topic. Giving us the needed time, in
taking seminars and visiting just the cruise ships, to better help the cruiser.
Well today, “land
travel” has changed much, in being more like a cruising product …
·
One stop purchase. Vendors put together packages, for agents to
buy “for their clients”. Instead of piecing
a vacation together, the vendor can offer more of what it needed by the
vacationer. Whether it’s transportation
from/to airport or to/from cities or meals included with All-Inclusives.
·
Land vendors too, have personalities and
budgets. You can read many reviews
online. And select companies, like Apple Vacation, rates their properties, for
the vacation to better understand. And
after you too, have experienced them for yourself, you often know next time, if
you want to travel again, with this same vendor.
·
Representatives of the vendor are often on
property or escorting the group.
And like the
cruise lines, land vendors turn to agents in providing their vendor packages, for
the benefit of the vacationer …
·
Better informed before travel
·
And when possible issues arise (whether vendor
related or personal customer issues), to have that needed support, of an agent.
·
Help keep folks protected from non-official
companies/sites. Like cruises, internet sites buy URL names,
that will lure the searcher to their site.
The consumer thinking they are on the official site of the land vendor, when
in actuality, they’re not.
About 5 years ago,
the “land vendors” approached Cruises Inc.
Their reason:
·
Over the last 30 years, Cruises Inc continues to
win awards in the travel industry, for our attention to detail. Meaning, more happier clients, when they
arrive to their destination. Who doesn’t
want happier clients, upon arrival ? LAND VENDORS TOO, WANT HAPPIER CLIENTS –
OURS ! Who could blame them, in
making this approach !
·
And as the Nation’s Largest Cruise-Only
agency, we have a lot of clients. What better way for them to reach more vacationers
than with our many clients.
Cruises Inc’s
reason in now offering “land packages” to our customers …. Like cruises …
·
To be there for our clients. Back our clients. Be that go-between with possible issues.
·
We now have that special relationship with the
Top Brand Land Vendors. That contract,
where the vendors “knows” which clients are ours !
Top Brand Land
Vendors, like the major cruise lines, now travel with Cruises Inc to our annual
convention. We meet them 1st
hand, like we do the cruise lines. Continuing
to build that relationship, for the benefit of our customers, as we have with
the cruise lines.
It’s a WIN-WIN
situation. These vendors have more
access to our cruise clients, with providing their land packages and
All-Inclusives. Our cruisers can now
come to us, for this same back, with “their choice” land vacation package. And Cruises Inc now has a larger industry position,
for protecting our cruise clients, with their other type bucket-list vacation
opportunities and dreams.
With more to come …
Cruises Inc Exclusive Land Vendor offers !
Just last month, we had an Exclusive offer, for our clients, with Apple
Vacations. We’re looking forward, to the
future, in providing our clients more.
Like cruises, land
travel is not meant for venturing alone !
