The ExplorEarth platform has been created by former AE Expeditions UK managing director Jos Dewing and Jon Waring; it promotes destinations, ships and cruises, and features a matching-engine which generates booking leads for agents.
So far, Mundy Cruising has joined ExplorEarth, but Dewing hopes to attract at least 20 more agencies “in the next few months”.
However, until now, his and Waring’s focus has been to build the platform’s software rather than bring in agents or suppliers. Dewing plans to launch the platform early next month with nine expedition cruise lines signed up.
