ITRAVEL has added cruise to its booking platform HQ by itravel, as demand within the sector continues to surge (CW breaking news yesterday).

The travel agency recognised the need to equip its advisors with the tools required for success in cruise, as the volume of bookings in the sector flows.

HQ by itravel now connects advisors with a vast network of cruise lines, as well as hotels, transfers, and activities in one centralised location, simplifying the booking process.

Key features include comprehensive booking capabilities, enabling advisors to reserve various components of a booking; efficient management, storing all bookings in one location; dedicated support with various aspects of the process; and white-label solutions, providing advisors with a direct bookable website.

HQ by itravel has become the primary booking tool for its agents, resulting in increased conversions and margins.

“The addition of cruise to HQ by itravel has already transformed our members’ booking processes,” Chief Executive Officer Steve Labroski said.

“We’ve had an unwavering positive response from our network, with the majority using it as their primary booking tool.”
