There are 25,000 points of sales currently working with IST’s cruise gds, selling cruises online from 24 lines.

It is not the first time IST has worked with small, yachting-style brands as Windstar is already integrated  into the FIBOS portfolio but with the addition of the latest two luxury brands, IST hopes to expand its ‘Boutique Cruises’ offering.

Xavier Garcia, commercial director of IST confirms, ‘We believe online technology has stuck in the cruise industry and our mission is to make the selling of cruises easier.’

IST is a Spanish company headquartered in Barcelona.
