VIKING LAUNCHES NEW TRAVEL ADVISOR PORTAL

Viking has launched a new and improved travel advisor portal designed to provide advisors with the tools and resources needed to sell the cruise line’s river, ocean and expedition voyages. The updated platform offers a comprehensive suite of features to enhance the booking experience and streamline the marketing process.

Travel advisors can access a wide range of tools, such as engaging marketing content and assets for building co-branded websites, as well as the popular Travel Advisor Academy.

The new improvements include:

  • Journey through the booking process – Search multiple cruise types with intuitive filters to find itineraries by city, port, month or date range.
  • Search for voyages by offer code – Find and book qualifying sailings with a new offer code search feature.
  • Manage bookings more efficiently – Sort bookings by upcoming payment deadlines with the new booking dashboard.
  • Find clients’ bookings with ease – Search for a booking by guest name and filter by booking status.
  • Choose a stateroom category – Select from all stateroom categories with an interactive room selection.
  • Add Air Plus while making an online booking – Avoid calling the Viking Air Department to add Air Plus earlier in the booking process.
  • Send an eQuote – Download a PDF or print a quote for clients.

“For 27 years… one of the reasons we have enjoyed success is because of our relationships with travel advisors,” says Torstein Hagen, Chairman and CEO of Viking. “We have always had some of the most trade-friendly policies, including our history as the first and only major cruise line with no NCFs. This new and improved portal is the latest step in our effort to be the best business partner for travel advisors.”
