We welcome both the experienced and the inexperienced travel professional. We are not a technology or marketing firm pretending to be a Host Agency attempting to sell you our products. We realize it is important for home-based agents to keep costs down and to realize more from their investment when choosing a Host Agency.

We are members of IATAN, CLIA, NACTA, and The TRAVEL INSTITUTE. As an affiliate you will have access to our many booking engines including CRUISEDESK, VAX, MLT,and many hotels and land travel operators. You will have access to the best pricing with the Expedia brand name. We also offer the top level supplier commissions and great email marketing programs.

Please take a few minutes to review our website. It is loaded with everything you may want to know about our program. Our program is straight forward with one single low fee to join, no annual renewal fees and it includes E&O insurance.

Our CRM system called CruiseDesk is by far the best system in the industry. You are able to track your client's profiles, book your travel from air, hotels, land destinations and cruises, send out itiniaries, client invoices, establish client communications and deadlines, populate booking reservations with your client information, track your sales and commissions in detail by supplier and type of travel, know when your commissions are received, administer your consumer website and many more functions.

THERE IS A DIFFERENCE BETWEEN HOST AGENCIES.

If you are like many people who have researched Host Agencies, then you know how confusing and frustrating it is to choose the right one. Don't fall into the trap that a free membership is better or that you need to pay a lot of money for the best. When choosing a Host Agency you should look at the basics and then you'll be able to get past the "hype and deceptiveness".

Ask how long the host has been in business and if it's profitable. A Host Agency losing money may not be around to pay you your hard earned commissions. Does the Host Agency offer it's own photo ID cards for you to obtain travel perks and large discounts?

Agencies offering photo ID cards are not really Host Agencies but are considered "card mills". Many times these card mills and other marketing type agencies use a form of the pyramid scheme to lure you in. These schemes may be legal, but it gives one reason to investigate. Other so-called host agencies, who are really marketing firms, usually send out misleading e-mail broadcasts containing outrageous text to get your attention. Their seminars offer "get the money" seminars that smell of the old "get rich quick" schemes offered by Multi-Level Marketing companies. Beware of those marketing firms offering consumers discounted travel afforded the 'real' agents. An over-abundance of testimonials is also a good tip-off of a marketing agency. Serious travel agents won't get fooled if they do their homework.

You will find ExpediaCruiseShipCenters-OVC an easy choice as your Host Agency.
