AI Skill for Travel Agents: Cruise Comparison
Find the right cruise for your client, not just the line you know
A client says “we want to take the kids on a cruise in March,” and suddenly you're comparing a dozen ships, three cruise lines, cabin rules for five people, and fares that aren't apples to apples. Doing it well takes hours. Doing it fast usually means recommending the line you already know.
This skill is a warm, experienced cruise mentor in your AI account. You describe your client, it asks only for what's missing, researches the cruise lines, the specific ships and their amenities, scores them against what your client actually cares about, and hands you a finished, branded Cruise Comparison Document you can use the same day.
One rule runs through everything: client fit first. Commission and favorite lines never decide the pick, because a great match is what earns the repeat booking and the referral.
What this skill delivers
- A guided intake: Up to 12 quick, tap-to-answer questions when client details are missing, each with a one-line explanation of why it matters so newer agents learn as they go.
- A researched shortlist: Three to five cruise lines, the ones ruled out and why, and the specific ships that sail your client's dates and ports.
- A weighted priority scorecard: See exactly why one ship scores higher than another against your client's priorities.
- A true cost check: Compare what's included versus extra, including gratuities, kids club fees, drinks, Wi-Fi, and private island add-ons, plus rough totals for the whole family.
- A clear recommendation: One top pick, a runner-up, and a “not the right fit if” note, with honest trade-offs.
- Excursion ideas: Suggestions for every port on the top pick, matched to your travelers' ages, interests, and activity level.
- Client-ready communication and agent coaching: A summary in your voice, talking points, answers to likely objections, and a coaching note explaining the reasoning.
