Using the Cruise Look-up Feature
To search for a cruise, you can use any of the following fields: Embarkation Date, Cruise Line, Ship Name, and Cruise Name.
- Embarkation Date
Click on the field to load the calendar and select the embarkation date. - Cruise Line
Start typing the first few letters of the cruise company’s name and select an option from the dropdown menu. If no results appear, the company may not be supported in the database. In this case, try selecting a different database (availability depends on your consortia) or double-check the spelling.
- Ship Name
Similar to the Cruise Line, start typing the cruise ship's name and select an option from the dropdown menu: - Cruise Name
The Cruise Name field follows the same logic as the Cruise Line and Ship Name fields. However, it’s usually unnecessary to filter database results. Use it only when you’re unsure about the other fields. Keep in mind that commercial cruise names may differ from those in the database, which could lead you to believe a cruise isn’t available when it actually is.
For best results, select from the dropdown instead of typing the full name manually.
Typically, entering the embarkation date along with the Cruise Line or Ship Name is enough to filter the results effectively from the Cruise Database.
For example, if you’re searching for Silversea’s cruise "Lisbon to Civitavecchia (Rome)", embarking on April 15th on the Silver Ray ship, simply using the embarkation date and the cruise line will filter the results sufficiently for you to select the correct option:
Editing and adding information to a Cruise
After selecting the correct cruise using the Cruise Look-up, the itinerary details—embarkation, disembarkation, ports, and dates—will be automatically populated. You can add cabin information, edit any details, set a main image for the Cruise Booking, upload images for all ports, and include any additional port information as needed. Ports can also be added or removed as necessary.
