them a cruise search widget. Cruise solutions are often unreachable for travel agents and homeworkers in particular because they’re often too expensive. But particularly in cases where agents may be driving nearly 100% of their business through social media, being able to access a fully integrated search app within their Facebook platform is a huge win for them.


Q: What do you think will be particularly welcomed about vCruise? A: The key thing is that vCruise features anyone and everyone that’s in cruise. This isn’t just ocean cruises, it’s river cruising as well. For a travel agent that doesn’t have a cruise solution, they would have to go from one website to the


next to the next to source information. The time-saving that vCruise offers to the agent is huge. They can have all of that availability at their fingertips.


Q: What is the grand plan for Vertical Systems? A: We’ve gone through a complete redesign, so all of our products, as of World Travel Market, will have a new look and feel to them. But the benefit of that is


they’re all developed using the same platform. Our aim over the next 18 months is to be seen as one integrated system. At the moment, agents will be accessing Vertical’s products directly. We’re making a change going forward where every product is accessed via vHub. They log in once to the hub and they can access search, Tarsc, CRM and VoIP – they have no need to log in again.
