American Cruise Lines Launches New Commission Program

American Cruise Lines is rolling out a new commission program for travel agents. Travel agents working with American Cruise Lines can now earn up to 13 percent commission on all individual commissionable bookings.

The commission level starts at the standard 10 percent, and higher commissions can be earned by increasing the number of bookings per calendar year. “We love working with travel agents and are so happy we can now offer those who are making a higher number of sales with us a higher commission level,” said Susan Shultz, American Cruise Lines’ director of sales.

Shultz said the company is looking to substantially increase its relationships with agents across the country as it unveils new ships and itineraries for 2010. American Cruise Lines operates a fleet of small ships along the inland waterways and rivers of the Pacific Northwest and East Coast of the U.S.
