New agent website dedicated to ferry bookings
A new website has been launched to help agents get to grips with booking ferries for their customers.
AFerryAgent.com is a one-stop booking system for all the different ferries and all reservations are commissionable.
"We realised that agents shy away from ferries as there are so many different companies with a myriad of prices and panoply of different reservation systems," said Kirsty Laifa, sales and marketing manager for Aferry.co.uk, the consumer ferry booking site.
"This facility applies to crossings all over Europe, not just from the UK, so agents can earn commission on their entire client’s ferry travel, whether it be around the Greek Islands or a foray across the Mediterranean to the Balearics or Corsica, Sardinia or North Africa, or a simple Dover to Calais crossing."
Agents need to register once and can access 80 ferry operators.
All special offers and deals are fed through the site which is available 24 hours a day, seven days a week.
The one booking system is used for all the companies so agents can reserve online and confirm reservations immediately.
