Celestyal Cruises Unveils Enhanced Trade Portal for Travel Agents

Celestyal Cruises, renowned for offering immersive travel experiences, has unveiled a new trade portal designed to streamline the booking process for travel agents. This boutique cruise line, known for its focus on Greek heritage and personalized service, aims to enhance the efficiency and convenience of pre-and-post booking arrangements for its two cruise ships.

The newly introduced functionality within Celestyal’s trade agent booking system now allows travel agents to seamlessly book pre-and post-cruise hotel stays, complete with transfers. This feature ensures that guests have access to top-tier accommodations, with all hotels being rated four stars or higher. Additionally, private transfers are available to and from the airport, hotel, and port, further enhancing the guest experience.

Currently, this booking service is accessible for select 2024 and 2025 sailings departing from Athens. These sailings include popular itineraries such as the three and four-night ‘Iconic Aegean,’ the seven-night ‘Idyllic Aegean,’ the seven-night ‘Steps of Paul,’ and the upcoming seven-night ‘Heavenly Adriatic’ cruises. Celestyal Cruises also has plans to expand this service to include itineraries in the Arabian Gulf in the near future.

Brandon Townsley, Celestyal’s Vice President and Managing Director for North America, expressed enthusiasm about the new portal, stating, “We’re thrilled to introduce this new tool allowing our trade partners to offer even more comprehensive and personalized experiences for their clients. By allowing agents to seamlessly book cruise and land packages, including high-quality hotel stays and private transfers, we’re enhancing the overall value and convenience of the Celestyal experience.”

Celestyal Cruises continues to build on its legacy of exceptional hospitality and cultural immersion, both onboard and onshore. With two modern vessels accommodating up to 1,260 passengers each, the cruise line prides itself on providing highly personalized services. Each year, Celestyal welcomes over 100,000 passengers from more than 130 different nationalities, solidifying its reputation as a leader in boutique cruising experiences.
