This digital-first platform simplifies cruise holidays through personalised planning, live
global inventory, and end-to-end travel support
Mumbai, 12 th June 2025 – In a move set to reshape the way Indian travellers discover
and book cruise vacations, Int2Cruises, Asia’s cruise-first Online Travel Agency (OTA),
has officially marked its entry into the Indian market. Built by cruise industry veterans
with over 50 years of combined global experience, the platform aims to bring
convenience, transparency, and affordability to a category often perceived as complex
and inaccessible.
Cruise vacations are fast gaining momentum among Indian families, young explorers,
and multi-generational travellers, yet planning remains highly fragmented, often
requiring separate bookings for the cruise, flights, hotels, visas, and excursions.
Int2Cruises solves this problem with an all-in-one digital platform that lets users
compare ships, itineraries, and real-time pricing across global cruise lines, while also
offering full-service support for every element of the vacation.
Akansha Agarwal, CMO at Int2Cruises said, “Indian travellers today are confident,
digitally savvy, and looking for memorable experiences. But cruise booking remains
fragmented and often overwhelming. With Int2Cruises, we have built a seamless, end-
to-end platform that removes the stress and adds joy to the planning process. It’s a
cruise booking, the way it should be, simple, transparent, and expert-backed.”
The platform aggregates live inventory from all major cruise lines. To name a few, Royal
Caribbean, Norwegian Cruise Line, Celebrity Cruises, Silversea, MSC Cruises, Costa,
Ama Waterways, Viking River Cruises and Disney Cruise Line allowing users to compare
cabin types, fares, and departure dates in real time. With just three clicks, travellers can
secure bookings with no hidden fees, zero service charges, and multiple secure payment
options. Cabins can also be held for free, with the flexibility to pay later, offering
convenience and control throughout the planning process.
What sets Int2Cruises apart is its tech-led, service-first philosophy. AI and machine
learning power personalised cruise recommendations based on individual travel
preferences and history, while a dedicated cruise expert is always available via chat or
call for real-time support. The platform goes far beyond simple bookings, offering end-
to-end holiday planning that includes visa and insurance assistance, curated pre- and
post-cruise stays, destination-specific shore excursions, and smooth airport transfers, all
backed by best-price guarantees.
With short-haul cruises from Mumbai, Singapore, Dubai, and Japan gaining momentum,
and younger Indian travellers prioritising experiences over logistics, cruise tourism is at
a tipping point. Trends like multigenerational travel, immersive itineraries, and
adventure-led voyages are redefining how Indians engage with holidays at sea.
Positioned at the centre of this shift, Int2Cruises is building the go-to platform for India’s
new wave of cruise travellers, offering depth, flexibility, and trusted expertise under one
digital roof.
