Porto Santo Lines takes reservations and check-in to a new level with Carus
The most advanced maritime booking solution, CarRes, is now live on the Porto Santo Line, providing their clients with an even better travel experience.
The CarRes solution combines online and agent booking with passenger and vehicle check-in for seamless travelling.
“The roll-out of the CarRes system to yet another Atlantic island proves the solution is adaptable to many types of operation and is stable and reliable enough to support a lifeline service”.
- John Bertell, Director of sales, Carus.
“We chose the CarRes solution by Carus because we were certain that it would meet the high quality standards that Porto Santo Line strives to achieve every day on a line that is characterized not only by tourism, but also for a public service for our residents within the same system, despite being very different processes, provides huge benefits across Porto Santo Line’s organisation. CarRes has been designed from Managing freight and passenger traffic the outset to do just that, without compromising either process". - Rui Gouveia, General Manager, Porto Santo Line.
The partnership between Porto Santo Line and Torre Praia Hotels, Praia Dourada and Luamar Aparthotel in Porto Santo, allows several promotional packages, designed to enhance the island experience. Using CarRes all these packages are bookable through the online and agent-booking portal.
”All the users are very happy with how quick and easy it is to make bookings and sell tickets”. - Manuel Cardoso, Business Intelligence Executive, Porto Santo Line.
“The go-live was an excellent experience, we had great support from the Carus team”. - Rui Gouveia, General Manager, Porto Santo Line.
