Expedia Cruises is a travel agency franchise company established in 1987, specializing in marketing and sales of air, land & cruise vacations. Through its network of 300 independently owned retail locations and 7,000+ Vacation Consultants in North America, the company has year over year grown in sales for the past two decades.
