Shipboard credit can be used before sailing
Prior to departure, passengers and their travel agents can now apply shipboard credit to purchase shore excursions and land tours, beverage packages, culinary classes and dining experiences at La Reserve and Privée. Credit can be used for voyages departing on or after May 19, 2019, via the 'Already Booked' section of OceaniaCruises.com, the Travel Agent Center or by calling Passenger Services at 1-855-623-2642.
Pre-cruise savings program
Oceania has long provided the best savings and incentives for travelers who book their next voyage on board a current cruise, or within 30 days of returning home. The line is now extending these benefits to cruisers and travel agent partners for the 30-day period prior to departure.
Travelers who have already chosen their next Oceania experience may reserve it prior to departure and receive the exclusive savings and Best Price Guarantee in advance. Agents reap the rewards of repeat bookings that are automatically credited back to their agency.
Luggage valet service
A new partnership with Luggage Forward gives travelers the option to have any additional baggage or equipment shipped from their doorstep directly to any Oceania voyage and then back again.
Service is available to and from more than 150 ports.
Redesigned homepage
The OceaniaCruises.com homepage has been redesigned with new, intuitive navigation. This is grouped into four tabs at the top of the page.
'Plan Your Cruise' makes it easier to find a cruise or destination, view specialty cruises and see air and hotel programs at a glance, while 'Explore Ashore' delves into excursions, land tours and the line’s hallmark Culinary Discovery Tours.
'Onboard Experiences' maps out the nuances and facets of Oceania's six ships, cuisine, enrichment and wellness. And 'Ultimate Value' showcases included amenities, special offers, excursion and beverage packages, travel protection and more.
Oceania's Travel Agent Center also received updates to the marketing tools, tips and training, and travel adviser benefits sections.
More to come
Additional updates to OceaniaCruises.com and the Travel Agent Center will be rolled out in 2019.
'As OceaniaNEXT continues to evolve, travelers and travel agent partners will see we are innovating and enhancing all aspects of the Oceania Cruises experience, in ways both large and small, yet always meaningful and impactful,' EVP James Rodriguez said.
