In its 27th year, Revelex is expanding cruise booking with ‘Revy AI’ and an interactive cruise deck viewer for advisers, travel professionals and clients. Inside ‘PowerAgent 5,’ the AI layer lets users start with trip details such as destination or budget and narrow down sailings, while the viewer uses 3D ship layouts to map cabins and amenities.
The deck viewer turns flat plans into explorable models, so users can check stateroom placement and compare cabin types before booking. ‘Revy AI’ supports both business-to-consumer and business-to-business booking, and Revelex plans to extend it beyond ocean cruising, starting with river cruises.
‘PowerAgent 5’ placement turns AI assistance into part of the adviser workflow instead of a separate search step. The 3D deck viewer also moves more cabin-selection work earlier in the sale, giving clients clearer choices before they commit.
