As one of North America’s leading travel franchises, Expedia Cruises offers an affordable, scalable retail host agency model that leverages the immense power of the Expedia brand to deliver full-service travel solutions across more than 260 locations.

Expedia Cruises is a premier full-service retail host travel agency franchise that has been delivering exceptional vacation experiences since 1987. As part of the Expedia Inc. family of brands, the company combines strong local retail presence with powerful online resources, operating over 260 locations currently open or under development across North America. Franchisees operate full-service agencies offering a wide array of travel products—including cruise vacations, all-inclusive resorts, coach and rail tours, flights, hotels, and vacation packages—all priced competitively through Expedia. By integrating direct lead-generation channels from Expedia.com and Expedia.ca into local franchise territories, owners can effortlessly acquire new shoppers and convert them into lifelong clients.

The Expedia Cruises franchise model is built around an omnichannel approach and a highly scalable, team-based operational structure. Franchise partners establish a visible retail location that serves as a community travel hub, enabling them to recruit and mentor a team of independent Vacation Consultants who collaborate to drive collective sales. With an affordable initial investment, comprehensive corporate training, proprietary booking technology, and multi-channel marketing support, Expedia Cruises equips franchisees with diverse revenue streams and a proven business system designed to build long-term equity in the booming travel industry.
