There is a distinct financial advantage to using a professional travel advisor over a direct website when booking a cruise. Cruise lines include the cost of professional advisor support in every fare they publish. If you book directly online, the cruise line simply retains that portion for themselves without offering any additional benefit to you. By booking through me, you ensure that this value is returned to you. You maintain the same level of direct support from the cruise line, but I am frequently able to secure additional on-board credits that are not available to the public. Furthermore, I can often access lower group rates to reduce your overall travel cost. You effectively get the same cruise and the same service, but with more value in your pocket and professional oversight of your logistics.
