Travel Partners

My brother is considering getting a travel agent license, and wants to look into travel partnerships with cruise lines. I thought maybe another member here might know something about the subject; maybe you’ve worked through a travel partner to book a cruise. Does anyone have any ideas on how to become a travel partner with Carnival Cruise, for example? Carnival seems to be a widely used cruise line, so it seems as though there would be plenty of opportunities to get leads through them as a travel partner. Questions he has are 1) is there a cost to be a partner? 2) is there an application process to become one?

Travel partners

Travel partners play an important role for cruise lines. It is a win-win situation for each. Each cruise line, like Norwegian, Carnival and Celebrity for example, offer travel partner programs. Anyone interested in becoming a travel partner for a cruise line simply needs to contact the cruise line directly to learn more about the program. Information can be obtained by phoning the cruise line, or the application can be filled out on line.
