Cruisewatch co-op

HAVING recently launched in Australia (CW 16 Jan), cruise price comparison website Cruisewatch has been in contact with “several” travel agencies to discuss potential cooperation, Chief Executive Officer Markus Stumpe revealed to Cruise Weekly.

The Cruisewatch chief and co-founder claims customers can save up to 70% via the platform’s price drop notifier, if they are slightly flexible with cabin categories.

“This also helps customers to check if the already-booked rate is still attractive or if they should contact the cruise lines to try to get the difference as an onboard credit,” he said.

“The next step is to use our advanced analytics to give the customers additional information about future price movement, like in the US.”
