WHY IT RATES: Cruise Planners will be utilizing Traveltek's single aggregated Cruise API, replacing Sabre. — Lacey Pfalz, Associate Writer, TravelPulse


Cruise Planners, a longstanding Sabre customer, has signed a partnership agreement with Traveltek to power their cruise solution for their agents across the USA.

Cruise Planners is the nation’s premiere travel franchise network, with over 2500+ franchise owner in all 50 states and has been operating since 1994. Cruise Planners franchise owners own and operate their own travel agency business and earn money helping clients plan amazing travel experiences such as cruises, land tours, and all-inclusive resort vacations.

Over the last 25 years, Traveltek has developed technology which enables leisure travel companies to package together an extensive range of hotels, flights, cruises, and ancillary travel services in one seamless transaction globally.

Cruise Planners franchises will benefit from access to over 30,000 integrated itineraries across all major ocean and river cruise lines and exclusive deals from thirty cruise lines around the world in a single aggregated Cruise API.

“When we were looking at partners to work with, Traveltek was the clear choice. Their years of experience and commitment to delivering a world-class product, made our decision easy.” Said Brian Shultz, Chief Information Officer of Cruise Planners.

“We are delighted to partner with Cruise Planners. I first met with the team in Coral Springs in February 2023, and it was great meeting a team who are clearly passionate about driving innovation and efficiency to their agents. I am really looking forward to collaborating with the team closer as we commence our partnership," said Rebecca Esterhuizen SVP - North America, Traveltek.
