For travel agents, efficiency and speed can make all the difference. That’s why South America operator Metropolitan Touring has launched their new agent portal, offering a streamlined platform that provides agents with the tools, information and support they need in one place.
Built around an agent's workflow, the new password-less login and simplified registration process offers access to essential trip information and booking support in an instant. Agents can review their sales and commission history, track open opportunities and get active quotes – all in one place.
One of the platform's new standout features is the real-time cruise inventory. Made accessible with advanced search tools, Metropolitan Touring's cruise availability can be filtered by region, trip length, group size and more, meaning no more waiting on availability via email. If you're not sure exactly what you're looking for, or if your client’s first choice is full, the portal’s smart engine automatically recommends the next best option.
The platform also provides a flexible search function supported by a live booking engine, putting essential resources at agents' fingertips. This allows agents to request full itineraries, access a range of HD photos to download and use for marketing, and view trip highlights, inclusions and exclusions.
When additional guidance is needed, expert support is just a click away, with agents able to connect directly with destination experts via a strategy call or live chat through Calendly.
The portal gives access to essential trip information
And to round it all off, the portal’s sleek design is not only easy on the eye, but easy for agents to navigate and find exactly what they need within seconds.
