Cruise Lines

VisaConnection provides cruise lines with an effective and streamlined process to alleviate the confusion associated with travel visa and passport processing for their guests.  VisaConnection supports more than 75% of cruise lines traveling to destinations that require a travel visa.  Through these partnerships, VisaConnection is able to provide Pre-Paid Tour Kits that allow cruise lines to sell required visas to their guests at the time of booking.  VisaConnection Pre-Paid Tour Kits are a fast, easy, and secure method for processing travel visas and passports for cruise guests in time for their departure.

As the cruise industry seeks to expand exotic travel offerings, it is increasingly important that all participating guests meet the entry requirements for each port of call.  The VisaConnection Pre-Paid Tour Kits provide cruise participants with the necessary entry requirements for each cruise destination.

VisaConnection’s Unique Services for Cruise Lines Include:

  1. CIBT Pre-Paid Tour Kits.  VisaConnection provides Cruise Lines with a custom Pre-Paid Tour Kit that provides cruise participants with the necessary entry requirements for each cruise destination.

    Travellers are often unfamiliar with visa requirements and processing procedures when preparing to travel abroad. Travellers who may not have applied for visas in the past can easily follow the simple steps outlined in the VisaConnection Pre-Paid Tour Kit. Designed in an easy to read format, it is an efficient method of delivering visa requirements to cruise guests. The Pre-Paid Tour Kit includes all visa applications, requirements, processing times, and useful information specific to each port of call.

     The Pre-Paid Tour Kit can be tailored to cover multiple countries on the cruise itinerary. VisaConnection can also customise the kit with your cruise line logo to offer you an additional opportunity for branding.  VisaConnection provides discounted rates to cruise lines using the Pre-Paid Tour Kit and can also provide commission at your request.   The cruise line can sell the traveller this service at point of sale to maximize commissions and to ensure all travellers obtain their visas in time for departure.
