Zanza Blue’s commitment to our guests comes first. Many other travel agents and travel providers might seem to present you the best deals around. Zanza Blue knows the facts. Cruises can be discounted for many reasons and sometimes it might not fit your needs. Many factors come into play for cruises, such as the time of year, the weather, the age of the ship, the onboard services, onboard unofficial social events such as spring break college parties, recent reports, blogs of poor service, and onboard enjoyment.

Sometimes the home port of call combined with the pricing can be a good indicator of what type of experience you might have. Zanza Blue knows that within each fleet of ships, the combined pricing and ports of call on a specific cruise can produce different levels of enjoyment. Zanza Travel Concierges have the experience of interacting with tens of thousands (if not hundreds of thousands) of cruise travelers. This experience has given us an in-depth understanding of what makes cruising enjoyable. We understand that a honeymoon couple and a family of four have different needs. We assist in choosing an unforgettable vacation experience custom suited to your travel needs.

Yes! We provide the same competitive pricing as other travel agencies and discounted travel providers. Zanza Blue communicates with the cruise line reservation and booking departments in the same manner as any other travel provider. Booking a cruise is similar to finding a good fare on a flight. Prices often fluctuate and Zanza Blue monitors the cruise specials to provide the best competitive pricing.

Zanza Blue extends any price reductions, cabin credits, upgrades, and amenity benefits that are made available by the cruise line. In addition, we monitor secondary promotions and savings programs. For example, any promotions American Express Travel offers to card members we extend to our clients as an option.

Most Zanza Travel Concierges no longer work on cruise ships, although some still do return for a period of time. Working on a cruise ship can be a memorable experience and a great way to make a living, but with time comes change. Many highly trained cruise ship employees depart from cruise ship life for personal reasons. Recently being engaged or married and deciding to settle down and have children is a common reason. Some just chose the position for a short period of time and then return to land. Some just miss the little things like owning a pet again. The reasons are abundant but in many cases ex crewmembers want to continue working within the travel industry.
