MILWAUKEE, WI - November 7, 2005 - Trisept Solutions, known for successfully aggregating over 20 leading tour operators into VAX VacationAccess®, is about to revolutionize the way agents book cruises. In early December, Trisept Solutions will unveil a new cruise-booking engine in VAX VacationAccess. Agents will be able to use the engine to book ten leading cruise lines within VAX VacationAccess.
"Currently agents call each individual cruise line to make reservations," said Barbara Wanzo, VAX VacationAccess Product Manager for Trisept Solutions. "We've learned with our tour booking system that agents need efficiency. We're giving agents one platform with which they can shop for and book cruise vacations. We're confident that agents will shift bookings from cruise call centers to VAX VacationAccess Cruise. The process is so simple and the time savings are so great ".
With VAX VacationAccess cruise, agents get real-time access to Carnival Cruise Lines, Celebrity Cruises, Costa, Cunard, Holland America, Princess, Norwegian, Royal Caribbean, the Yachts of Seabourn and Windstar Cruises.
The new cruise booking engine was travel agent-tested in Trisept's state-of-the-art usability lab to ensure it was intuitive for both experts and novice agents alike. The system was designed to allow agents to book a deluxe cruise vacation in 5 easy steps:
- Select a cruise sailing (by cruise line, departure month, price)
- Select the room category (compare by price)
- Select the cabin (deck maps make it easy)
- Select dining preferences (seatings by time)
Select options (add insurance, if offered
In addition to the new, powerful cruise booking engine, Trisept offers a number of features designed to make it easier for agents to market and sell cruise vacations.

Featured Cruise highlights a cruise ship and enticing offers available only via the line. Cruise Schedules allow agents to view up-to-the-minute cruise sailings.
