With the launch of our new online booking platform and backed by our local New Zealand call centre operations, we are set to provide exceptional service to a respected network of Travel Agency partners within First Travel Group. It’s certainly exciting times ahead!”

John Wilson, GM First Travel Group Retail stated “It was great to have our FTG members meet the
Creative Cruising NZ team, and through the support of Carnival NZ and Royal Caribbean
International, we have some exclusive incentives and reasons for our Agents to use the Creative
Cruising NZ booking platform.”

Creative Cruising’s online booking system allows Agents to search, review and explore thousands of
sailings from high end all suite 6-star luxury ships and popular ocean liners, to river cruising,
boutique and expedition cruises and everything in between.

The booking platform not only aggregates pricing, rich content, video, imagery, interactive deck
plans and itineraries, but it also provides a fantastic cruise comparison tool that allows agents to
review up to six sailings side by side, detailing maps, day by day itineraries, start and end ports,
pricing by cabin categories and bonus offers all in one screen.

To celebrate the launch in New Zealand, cruise line partners have offered exclusive booking
incentives, plus First Travel Group Agents have access to Creative Cruising’s 2020 Top Achievers’ Trip with Royal Caribbean International in Asia.
