Let the #1 Brand in Travel Work For You
Established in 1987, Expedia® CruiseShipCenters® is a global leader in the marketing and sales of cruises and vacations. With a network of more than 150 retail and sales center locations and over 3,600 Cruise Consultants across North America, we provide business opportunities that allow you to enjoy a rewarding business and great lifestyle.
Why an Expedia Franchise?
While we specialize in cruises, our Retail Center Franchises also operate as full-service travel agencies selling a wide range of travel products to meet every vacation need. As part of the Expedia Inc. family of brands, Expedia CruiseShipCenters Franchise Partners leverage the competitive advantage of the most recognized brand in travel and more than $29 Billion in buying power for flights, cars, hotels, vacation packages and more.
As a Retail Franchise Partner operating in an exclusive territory, customers in your community will have the most options for purchasing their vacation - by calling, clicking or coming into your store. Your main responsibility will be to develop and lead a large sales team of Cruise Consultants who will work in your Center or from their home. You'll manage all of this with our industry-leading systems that allow your business to continue running smoothly, even when you're away traveling!
Innovative Marketing, Powerful Technology
Our proven strategy combines your Retail Center Franchise with a powerful local website to not only attract new clients, but create Customers for Life™. You'll build loyalty and trust with every customer interaction, which is why all of our marketing is personalized to the Consultant level and managed through our proprietary, web-based Customer Relationship Management System: CruiseDesk. Everything you need to run your business, from recruitment to marketing to financial reporting is always just a click away in CruiseDesk, no matter where in the world you are.
Stronger.Together Culture
Go into business for yourself, not by yourself! Expedia CruiseShipCenters' proven support system and extensive resources facilitate a smooth transition into the travel business - even with no industry experience! Our Cruise Management Academy offers the essential foundation for your new business while our 75+ Partner Support team and your dedicated Franchise Development Manager will provide ongoing support.
