Avanti Destinations has taken a step forward in the travel industry by creating a microsite specifically designed for travel advisors to book pre- and post-cruise hotel stays, sightseeing tours, and activities. This innovative platform aims to make it easier for advisors to book land packages for independent travelers, especially those who specialize in booking cruises.
Avanti Destinations offers an extensive selection of options in 63 port cities around the world. Whether it’s Barcelona with 49 hotels and 37 tours/activities or Kyoto with 26 hotels and 47 tours/activities, the microsite provides a plethora of choices for travel advisors and their clients. With a two-night minimum hotel stay requirement, advisors can easily customize their clients’ travel experiences to suit their preferences.
The microsite includes a tutorial that explains how it works, making it easy for advisors to navigate the platform and save proposed pre- and post-cruise stays. Advisors can input specific details such as the cruise line, sailing date, ship name, number of days on the cruise, desired star rating of the hotel, room type, and number of hotel nights. Once the hotel is selected, the site conveniently displays tour and transfer options, automatically finding the correct transfer for the harbor, hotel, and airport.
By providing a seamless booking process and a wide range of options, Avanti Destinations aims to enhance the overall experience for both travel advisors and their clients. The microsite allows advisors to add their agency fee and trip protection, ensuring transparency in pricing. When sharing the completed pre- or post-cruise extension with clients, the total price includes the agency fee and commission, while trip protection is displayed separately.
Avanti Destination’s microsite is a game-changer in the travel industry, simplifying the booking process for travel advisors and providing a wide range of options for independent travelers. By leveraging user-friendly features and enhancing the overall experience for both advisors and clients, Avanti Destinations is setting a new standard in customized travel experiences.
