Our goal is to offer our help to any agent or agency that may need it.”

The Safe Harbor program provides a complete solution for independent travel agents and agencies looking for help as they navigate through these challenging times.

“Cruise.com is offering agencies an opportunity to connect through its platform and be supported by its staff,” Cruise.com Owner and CEO Gloria Bohan said in a statement. “Agencies in critical need can be provided everything from technology support to back office assistance to help to facilitate their bookings.”

“Agents will be provided with a home in our program and tools to help them succeed,” Bohan continued. “We want to help save our industry and protect independent travel agents and agencies.”
