Transfer Your Cruise Booking To Us!

Clients and potential clients often ask me if it’s better to book their cruise direct with the cruise line or with a travel agent. The answer is simple.  Travel agents have access to and arrange for private sales all the time. You will never pay more than what a cruise line is offering. In most cases, you’ll save money and receive exclusive value added amenities like shipboard credits, prepaid gratuities, wine, cabin upgrades, onboard coupon booklets and much more.  Most importantly, you have your own personal advocate who represents you whenever there is a dispute with the suppliers. A good travel agent is your advocate, not an advocate of the cruise lines.

To benefit from these extra perks and personal travel assistance, you must book or transfer your reservation to us.  If you transfer the booking to us, you will get to keep the same cabin, same booking number, and the same rate as you have with the cruise line. You will also get to take advantage of our offer. The cruise lines have made the process to transfer your booking over to travel agencies fairly easy.

Simply find your cruise below and fill out the form (if required) or send me an email. As soon as your booking has been successfully transferred, we will make sure you are set up with the best rate and perks. When filling out the form, please use our Agency Name: Dream Vacations - Freer & Associates. Agent: Kathy Freer (or any of our associates). Agency Phone: 321-735-0202. Agency Email: kfreer@dreamvacations.com.

We Appreciate Your Loyalty!

I absolutely LOVE sending clients on their very first cruise and I absolutely LOVE repeat clients as well.  Did you know that we have a loyalty program??  Well, we do.  A high number of clients book their next cruise while onboard their current cruise, or within 30 days of returning home.  Here is our way of rewarding loyalty:

Book your next cruise either onboard or within 30 days of your trip end date.  Travel must begin within 18 months of your trip end date.  Your perk value is based on your trip cost, and you can choose from the following:  On board credit, or shore excursion credit through our partner company Shore Excursions Group.

Here are the perk amounts:



And, one of the best parts is that this is combinable with any promotions that the cruise line may be offering.  What a great way to be rewarded!

Other terms and conditions may apply, and I will certainly go over details when you book your trip!

So, where do you want to cruise to???  If you have something in mind, let me know.  If you have some ideas but are not sure, let me know and we will design the best trip for you.  You can visit my website and browse cruises (you can even book your own cruises right on my website for most cruise suppliers), send me an email or give me a call anytime at 888-882-5793 or 321-735-0202.  Remember, I do not charge any fees for my services.  You will never pay extra for using a travel agent.  So why not use someone with expertise who has your best interest??

On Board Credit Promo, My Favorite Time of the Year!



Happy New Year!  I hope everyone had a great 2018, and that 2019 will bring you much happiness!  And what better way to bring happiness than a cruise this year!  We are lucky enough to have another amazing on board credit promo for cruises departing in 2019.  Introducing our "Early Planners Get the Best Deals - Take Advantage of our Presale and SAVE!"  Let it Sail, Let it Sail, Let it SALE!

This promotion starts today, January 2, 2019, and runs through January 10, 2019.  It is for cruises that depart from February 2, 2019 through December 31, 2019.  So that means your Spring Break Cruise, your Summer Cruise, your Holiday Cruise, and your I Just Want To Get Away Cruise qualifies!

Keep in mind that our promotion is combinable with any promotion that the cruise lines are offering, so it is a great way to stack up on extra goodies!  Also, please keep in mind that by using a travel agent you do not pay any extra and you do not miss out on anything cruise line related.  We attach your past guest loyalty information and anything that the cruise line is offering we offer too.  And by using me as your agent, you also qualify for our loyalty perks as well!  It is a win win!

The onboard credit is based on your vacation amount as follows:


The cruise cost is calculated by using the total cost of your cruise, including taxes, fees, cruise line airfare, pre and post cruise packages and insurance.  And it is per stateroom.  So if you have multiple rooms, each room would be receiving onboard credit (as long as your vacation total is over $1,500).

So, where do you want to cruise this year???  If you have something in mind, let me know.  If you have some ideas but are not sure, let me know and we will design the best trip for you.  You can visit my website and browse cruises (you can even book your own cruises right on my website for most cruise suppliers), send me an email or give me a call anytime at 888-882-5793 or 321-735-0202.  Remember, I do not charge any fees for my services.  You will never pay extra for using a travel agent.  So why not use someone with expertise who has your best interest??
