STEFANO ORONI, Managing Director of Incentives at Sea and Beyond is a passionate believer that cruising is not a one-brand-fits-all industry. “We have seen a lot over the years, especially more recently when it comes to the cruising market and who’s who in terms of brokerages. For the most part, cruise brokers like to marry their clients solely with their very limited product offerings. The problem with this is that it is a very short-sighted approach to the lifetime value of the individual client,” he says. Agents working with the company will find that there are several benefits that make the process of planning and booking a cruise programme easier. Incentives at Sea and Beyond offers agents:
Expert advice
“One of the primary benefits of working with us is the expert advice that we can offer. With well over 30 years’ combined experience, we provide valuable insight into the different cruise lines, ships, and itineraries available, as well as offer recommendations based on your group’s demographics, preferences, and budget,” says Oroni.
Personalised service
Another advantage of using Incentives at Sea and Beyond is the personalised service provided. “A good cruise brokerage will take the time to understand your unique needs and preferences and work with you to create a customised programme that meets your unique requirements. We assist you with any special requests or requirements, such as dietary restrictions, mobility issues, or other considerations.”
Cost-savings
Working with Incentives at Sea and Beyond can also lead to cost savings, says Oroni. Why? “Because the company has access to exclusive deals and promotions, we can help you find the best possible deal for your cruise programme – one loaded with benefits such as onboard credits, beverage packages or other amenities. These can make your programme stand head and shoulders above your peers.”
Convenience
Booking a cruise can be a complex and time-consuming process, especially if agents are unfamiliar with the various cruise lines, their ships, their policies, and the multiple itineraries available says Oroni. “By partnering with us, you save yourself the hassle of hours and hours of research and selection. Instead, like many before you, you can rely on the expertise and experience of Incentives at Sea and Beyond to handle all the details, from selecting the right ship and itinerary to online check-in and many more conveniences we offer for your group. We will even arrange pre- and post-cruise transportation to and from the port if required.”
Support and assistance
Finally, partnering with Incentives at Sea and Beyond means ongoing support and assistance throughout the planning stages, during, and after your cruise programme, 24/7. In conclusion, partnering with Incentives at Sea and Beyond offers several benefits – expert advice, personalised service, cost savings, convenience and ongoing support and assistance. So, if you’re planning a cruise incentive, consider using a reputable, well-established cruise brokerage like Incentives at Sea and Beyond.
