Mr. Frank Wells reports
SCS Solars Computing signed five-year contracts with two worldwide and
world class cruise lines. Both First European Cruises and Leisure Voyages
have signed contracts to have their products delivered by way of the
Solarnet system.
First European Cruises is headquartered out of New York and has 112
sailings to the Caribbean, Eastern and Western Mediterranean, North Africa,
Norwegian, Fjords and Baltic Sea with ships' registry in France, Panama and
the Bahamas. First European Cruises offer 30 itineraries worldwide and has
recently introduced its newest, state of the art, ship, the Mistral. First
European Cruises presently sells and markets its cruises within the North
American marketplace through four regional sales directors.
First European Cruises' regional sales director for Canada, Iain Perkins,
stated: "First European Cruises is looking to Solarnet as a key to
providing worldwide distribution for their product, which will replace the
need for costly and often ineffective faxing." It is First European
Cruises' goal to increase market share with solutions such as Solarnet. "We
have actively sought to enhance our current distribution methods and
Solarnet provides a cost effective, real time solution in a managed
distribution environment. Further, Solarnet's management tools will allow
us to see, in a real time environment, the travel agent's activity on our
hosted site with feedback on agency activity."
Leisure Voyages, headquartered in Walnut Creek, Calif., has provided
upscale river ship cruises on a worldwide basis for over fourteen years.
Leisure Voyages presently offers sailing on such pristine rivers as the
Volga in Russia, the Nile in Egypt, the Rhone in France and starting in the
year 2000, the spectacular Danube.
Under these contracts, both companies wish to maximize sell-off circular
distribution to travel agents through the Solarnet Travel Network.
Historically, cruise lines have distributed updates and travel specials by
way of facsimile. This method is has been found to be costly, labour
intensive and often ineffective. Solarnet will provide a distribution
solution capable of posting bulletins, which are immediately accessible
electronically by travel agents, through their existing CRS on-line
terminals.
SCS Solars' director of sales, Bob Wilson, wishes to welcome First European
Cruises and Leisure Voyages adding: "The introduction of the Solarnet
system into the cruise line industry promises great possibilities and
potential within this industry. The acceptance and endorsement of the
Solarnet system in the cruise line industry, again, signifies the
versatility of the Solarnet system in meeting yet another facet of the
leisure travel marketplace's needs."
