Through personalized service and expert advice, the brick and mortar travel agency has been helping clients navigate through the overwhelming amount of travel options to choose the right vacation for their needs. The demand for customized travel services continues to grow. In fact, American Express Spending and Saving Tracker revealed that between 2015 and 2016, consumer use of travel agents increased nearly 80 percent. Cruisers in particular are partial to agents, with 82 percent of them stating they tend to book cruises through an agent, according to Cruise Lines International Association’s 2017 Cruise Travel Report.
As consumers continue to reap the benefits of using travel agents, cruise specialist Expedia CruiseShipCenters is building on this momentum and looking to add more than 1,400 new Vacation Consultants and over 30 new retail travel franchises by the end of 2017. Their CruiseDesk® technology gives Consultants the flexibility to sell travel from the retail store, their home office, or anywhere in the world. In addition, their marketing tools and comprehensive sales training provides the tools and support to attract and retain customers for life. Expedia CruiseShipCenters is seeking individuals interested in careers in travel to join its growing team of Vacation Consultants.
“Our goal is to navigate spectacular vacation experiences for every single customer, and in our 30th year, we now have over 5,000 Vacation Consultants striving to do just that,” said Matthew Eichhorst, President of Expedia CruiseShipCenters. “We’re excited to celebrate this milestone with our customers and plan to continue exceeding expectations in everything we do.”
