The World Cruising Society in now offering motivated individuals the opportunity to earn additional income by selling cruises, vacation packages, hotels, resorts and other travel to their family, friends, co-workers, church and organization. There are some individuals that travel a great deal and can use this opportunity to earn commissions for their own travel.
The travel business is unique in that once you learn the basics of selling travel and keeping abreast of the travel industry as you go, you can sell travel almost forever up to any age. It’s a natural income producer for seniors, disabled people and just about anyone who wants to earn additional income. It’s a natural safeguard against layoffs and general unemployment. The travel business, especially certain niches, is pretty much recession proof.
We will provide you the training to sell travel. You can learn and earn at your own pace and it will not interfere with your full-time job. You will become a travel agent, affiliated with the World Cruising Society.
Please do not confuse this offer with the multi-level-marketing programs that are out there. We don’t provide income or other benefits to recruit other individuals. Of course you are free to invite a friend to sell travel as you probably will do.
We also do not provide photo ID cards in order for you to fool hotels and other suppliers in believing you are a full-time professional travel agent when in fact you are a part –time agent who may not wish to sell travel as a full-time professional.
There are photo ID cards available from reputable organizations such as IATAN and CLIA, which you may qualify for as you earn commissions, whether as a full or part-time agent.
We know from experience that individuals who start off with this program will probably get the travel “bug” and want to spend more of their time developing their travel business and will desire more training and education. As a member of the World Cruising Society you will always have the opportunity to move up to additional levels on the way to becoming a professional travel agent. We provide or recommend the additional training when you feel ready.
World Cruising Society is affiliated with Coral Sands Travel-America's Cruise Centers, America’s Host Agency, a nationally known and respected Host Travel Agency. You will have access to the same benefits and commission levels as you grow your travel business and decide to move up.
Our optional training programs are all online, allowing you to learn at your own pace. The training programs are a part of a comprehensive agent only website where you will also be provided with tools such as marketing, agent forms and resources. Everything you need to get started booking travel.

$5001 and above commissions earned, your split is 70-80%

HOW TO CLAIM YOUR COMMISSION:
Upon making the initial deposit to the supplier you will email, fax or slow mail a copy of your booking confirmation to the World Cruising Society. Be sure your full name and membership ID appears on the confirmation. Commissions are paid within 30 days of travel and the supplier has paid the commission. Payments are made twice a month by check payable to the individual or company whose name appears on the W9 form that you will submit prior to the first commission check being mailed to you.
AN IMPORTANT NOTE:
When making the final payment to a supplier, you must pay the GROSS amount requested even if it’s your personal travel. Some suppliers provide an amount to be paid before or after deducting the commission. NEVER, EVER pay that NET amount. You may be subject to immediate termination and the entire travel reservation cancelled by us. Earning our share of the commission is our main form of revenue. Without it, we could not stay in business.
The World Cruising Society escrows 80% of all commissions received from suppliers. No other Agency escrows its commissions for its affiliated agents. This is to insure our agents that no matter what happens to the World Cruising Society you will always receive your commission.
