Shining Brightly Together

Invite your clients to step away from the crowds. Away

from towering decks and a thousand people, or even

more. Away from lines, from waiting, away from the whole

idea of group travel.

Invite them to amazing places where they relish intimate

cultural experiences, and connect with the world as only a

small ship can allow them to do. This is their vacation, their

own experience. As individual as they are.

Welcome your clients to the world of small ship cruising —

to Windstar’s graceful yachts, each one welcoming fewer

than 300 lucky guests. With six beautiful yachts, Windstar

gives your clients more true small ship choices than anyone

in the world.

“I recently returned from the most exquisite cruising experience of my life. It wasn’t actually cruising. It was yachting. In the most luxurious and relaxing form, on board the delightful and beautiful 148-passenger yacht, Wind Spirit … It was the most relaxing experience of my life.”

— Stephy Cole, Travel Professional, Cruiseabout Castlecrag, Australia

From the moment your clients step on board and we greet

them by name to the moment we reluctantly bid them farewell,

your clients are our first priority. Every moment of their Windstar

experience is all about them.

The pampering begins the instant you ask a Windstar Vacation

Planner to find the perfect match among our collection of

voyages. It continues as the Vacation Planning team helps plan

and customize each aspect of your client’s vacation.

When at last we welcome your valued clients on board, the fun

really begins. Every time we see them smile. Every time we catch

them by surprise by bringing them just the right thing at just the

right time. Every time we see the looks on their faces that tell

us this is like nothing they’ve ever done before. This affirmation

makes our day.

Only on Windstar’s small ships can your clients dine alfresco

as they skirt the legendary coastline of Italy’s Cinque

Terre, explore sand-fringed motus off the shore of Raiatea, or

snorkel with sea turtles in the secluded cays of Puerto Rico’s

Isla Culebra. They can mingle and chat with the locals in Hvar

as their small group disperses in search of the perfect Croatian

gnocchi. They can ask questions at will of the onboard Costa

Rican Naturalist, and sail off the beaten path to “insider” locales

known only to yachtsmen.

It’s an intimate style of cruising that promotes connections,

understanding, and a renewed sense of wonder.

Each Windstar voyage includes a complimentary Private Event

designed to take your clients closer to the people and places

we visit.

On a special day they will enjoy an experience that is both unique

and iconic, from fire dancers and a tropical feast on a secluded

motu to a live concert and moonlit dinner in the courtyard of the

Celsus Library in Ephesus. Come. The magic is waiting.

EXCLUSIVE PRIVATE EVENTS


There’s no place like home, especially on a Windstar yacht.

Each beautifully appointed stateroom or suite is designed

for comfort and features romantic ocean views, comfortable

beds with soft leather headboards, soothing seascape colors, and

hand-selected artwork.

Thoughtfully designed spaces offer comfortable seating areas

and expansive storage, with elegant touches everywhere — like

luxurious Egyptian cotton linens, L’Occitane en Provence® bath

products, and concert quality sound from the Bose® SoundDock.

From waffle-weave robes and slippers to fresh flowers and fruit

baskets, every need and desire has been anticipated, and delivered.

ENJOY THE ALL SUITE LUXURY

OF OUR POWER YACHTS

Surprising both in the beauty of their design and the sweep of

their size, Windstar’s suites are a haven of sophisticated luxury.

Soft lighting, private viewing balconies, and an in-suite bar stocked

with favorite beverages set the stage. Spacious walk-in closets

offer generous accommodations for luggage and souvenirs.

And the bathroom is a welcome retreat, lined with marble, and

featuring a full-sized tub and shower. Pleasant dreams.

WINDSTAR GUEST PROFILE

Demographic:

• Affluent households

• Ages of 45 to 65

• Primarily married couples

• Professionals, business owners

Lifestyle:

• Well-educated

• Discerning world travelers

• Experienced cruisers

• Interested in the arts, environmental issues, food, and wine

• Members of country clubs, golf clubs, and art associations

SELLING TIPS

Overnights: Itineraries which feature overnights allow your clients

to further immerse themselves in the destination and use the yacht

as a floating hotel. Overnights represent great value to your clients

and can be used to attract new cruisers who want more time to

explore local entertainment but have been reluctant to cruise

based on perception of limited time.

Extended stays and evenings: Windstar itineraries often have very

few days at sea with the emphasis on taking your clients to exotic

and interesting locales each day. Full day calls and late departures

allow your clients to take advantage of all the port call has to offer

— full day excursions or perhaps a pampering day at the spa or

fitness center — the choice is theirs.

Back–to–back voyages: Our yachts often transit regions providing

your clients the ideal opportunities to enjoy a back–to–back

cruise experience without repeating any ports. Enrich your clients’

experience and suggest this prospect.

This is truly a win–win: Windstar allows your clients to remain in

the same stateroom or suite for both segments, we offer additional

discounts for booking back–to–back cruises bringing more value

to your clients, and more profits to you in commissions.

According to the 2015-2016 Cruise Industry News Annual

Report, the luxury market niche could see a 53 percent

increase in passenger capacity from 2015 to 2018. And in CLIA’s

2015 State of the Cruise Industry Report, specialty segments

including small ships continue to experience double-digit

passenger growth. This means that the market for Windstar —

and your potential for revenue from selling Windstar — is stronger

than ever.

Here’s how to identify a potential Windstar guest and a few ways

to close the sale on a cruise that is recognized as one

of the industry’s best values.

• The cruise for the non cruiser

• Clients who are destination focused

• Previous riverboat clients

• Wine enthusiasts

• Food and wine clubs

• Couples — couples traveling together

• Not generally suited for kids — minimum age is 8 years old

• Honeymooners
