About The Author
If you're wondering who I am, this is me
and my wife Maria, and we love to take as many vacations
together as we possibly can.
We both have extensive travel experience backgrounds, where
I successfully ran a discount vacation agency, and then later
offered a Business Development Manager position within the
same company in 2004.
My position was to assist in developing a fully functional
cruise specialist call center for the luxury cruise market. The
business model was designed to run as a virtual agency, where
most of our business would come from our website, which really
intrigued me right from the inception of the project.
Once the cruise department was up and running, I quickly
noticed that we were selling a lot of cruise and vacation packages
over the Internet, without any communication other than email
confirmations, and some follow-up phone calls.
I was amazed that people from all over would drop thousands of
dollars on their credit card and book their vacations online, and
the reason was simple. Just like you, many of our clients
that booked their vacation through our website were and still are
very intellegent people that understand the incredible savings they
would obtain booking their own cruise online.
With the ability to gain worldwide access to a variety of
Internet vacation sites that offered direct service and booking
tools, this eliminated all the retail costs such as reservations
fees and possible price-markups that many agencies would do to make
money.
As my clients became more educated, and understood the true
benefits and savings in booking their vacations
online, the convenience also became more apparent. Many
of the local wholesale cruise tour companies quickly
noticed this huge trend, and realized they could compete
with the lower prices offered via these travel companies on the
Internet, and thus the Internet is now the place to go for
fantastic discounts and last minute deals!
As the travel market was shifting, and many of our vacationers,
such as yourself, were becoming more knowledgeable using the
Internet, and were becoming more aware of the deep discounts
offered through online vacation sites, it was a no brainer to move
over to the Internet travel business, and provide quality
information for our readers to help them find a great vacation deal
here online.
I encourage you to check out my Caribbean information site, and
hopefully I can help you find your next cheap vacation deal right
here!
Take care, and I hope you will come back often to visit.
