New Expedia CruiseShipCenters ‘Seanic’ Experience in Jacksonville

Saving time and money for a vacation has become more convenient with Expedia CruiseShipCenters’ newest retail travel agency in Jacksonville. As experts in planning the perfect vacation or cruise based on lifestyle and needs, Expedia CruiseShipCenters of Jacksonville will now help residents sail away to their dream destinations.

Located at 10915 Baymeadows Rd., Ste. 111 the new business is owned and operated by Debbie Moreland. Moreland is a long-time franchise owner, mother and grandmother. After retiring, Moreland wanted to pursue a venture that aligned with her passion for travel and still allowed her to give back to the local community. The new center is partnering with local organizations such as the Jacksonville Police Association, the Jacksonville Children’s Choir, Journey Into Womanhood and many school partnerships in the community. Along with giving back to the community, providing excellent customer service and helping people grow will be the cornerstone of the new Expedia, allowing the community to find their perfect vacation fit.

“Vacationing is all about creating life-long memories, but the process of booking a complex, high-value trip like cruising can be intimidating,” Moreland said. “One of my passions is fostering growth in employees and our center will deliver the highest standard of customer service to the Jacksonville community.”

Expedia CruiseShipCenters Vacation Consultants receive extensive training and marketing support, which allows them to become navigators of spectacular vacation experiences, even with no previous travel experience. “We are actively recruiting Vacation Consultants to work full-time or part-time from our retail center, or as a home-based agent,” says Moreland. “Our agents have the freedom and flexibility to build their travel business on their own terms with the power of Expedia behind them.”

Expedia CruiseShipCenters – part of the Expedia Group family of brands – offers cruise vacations and more through its over 291 locations across North America. Customers can choose from numerous vacation possibilities over land, sea and air, including customized trips, coach and rail tours, and insurance – all at Expedia prices. In addition to the research and booking features available on their local website, Moreland and her team offer personal vacation consultations in person, through email and over the phone, so customers have the freedom to book when, where and how they choose.

With the cruise travel industry expected to continue its rise throughout 2019, Expedia CruiseShipCenters’ growth is in part driven by this continued demand. According to the Cruise Lines International Association (CLIA) report, more than 30M passengers are expected to cruise in 2019- a drastic increase over the last five years. Additionally, 24 new ocean, river and specialty ships are scheduled to debut.
