Expedition Micro Cruise specialist Secret Atlas has announced a new partnership with Cabin Select, a leading travel tech company specialising in reservation management and distribution, to make it easier for consumers and trade to reserve and manage cruise bookings.
Pioneers of the Micro Cruise concept, Secret Atlas launched in 2019, taking the smallest group sizes in the Arctic (only 12 guests) and Antarctic (only 48 guests) while offering authentic itineraries away from the larger cruise vessels.
The micro cruise sector has since grown from strength to strength. Secret Atlas has chosen Cabin Select to increase efficiency in taking and managing bookings from direct consumers and trade partners, making it friction-free.
The partnership will make booking, managing and paying for bookings with Secret Atlas even easier by seamlessly integrating content, pricing, and live availability. It will also offer access to a range of benefits, including multi-language support, multi-currency transactions, and multi-cabin options, as well as streamlining and reducing the booking process and time.
Michele D’Agostino, Co-Founder of Secret Atlas, said, “We created the Expedition Micro Cruise concept to help adventurous travellers explore the polar regions with as much flexibility and little environmental impact as possible. Our sector is niche, and Cabin Select offers the opportunity to improve the booking experience by adding real-time data, local currencies, and multiple checkout methodologies for improved efficiency, making it easier for guests and trade partners to book and manage an Expedition Micro Cruise with us.”
Kevin Walker, CSO of Cabin Select, added, “We’re thrilled to welcome Secret Atlas to the Cabin Select website. Secret Atlas is the first Micro Cruise brand to come on board and opens the inventory available to agents with clients interested in an expedition cruise to the polar regions. Secret Atlas offers a unique way of exploring this part of the world, and we’re excited to help the brand enhance its booking journey.”
