In the spotlight

Earn high commissions from alternative sources!

Who said that non-air doesn't fly? And who said that commissions are disappearing? With a simple re-think and some help from your technology partner, you too can plug into this source of high rewards! It's difficult to compete with the economies of scale of the larger chains, but there are other ways to earn money and increase your bottom line!

Commissions are alive and kicking!

Don't miss out on one of the sources of generous commissions: cruise. Cruise is still paying up to 16% commission and, according to Travel Weekly (2006), 27% of travel agents' revenue in the US is already coming from cruise. Even better, the trend is up, up and soaring, and the cruise market is booming. Don't miss this great opportunity.

Added Value

Each year, more than 14 million passengers take a cruise vacation and somehow have to get to the port of embarkation. Since around 75% of those passengers opt for air travel, there is a serious possibility of adding quite a few extra air bookings!
