Destinations
Passport Online has a huge library of destination content. Not only does that information show on offer itineraries, but that same information can be displayed in other ways:
Destination Showcase
The Destination Showcase is a slideshow-type display that will allow you to easily show different locations, and information for those locations. Here is an example of how it will look:
-
SkíathosExpandSkiathos, a gem in the Aegean Sea, is one of Greece's most enchanting islands. Known for its stunning beaches, vibrant nightlife, and lush landscapes, Skiathos is a must-visit for travelers seeking both relaxation and adventure. The island boasts over 60 sandy beaches, with Koukounaries Beach standing out as one of the most beautiful, surrounded by a dense pine forest that creates a unique blend of sea and greenery.
-
CartagenaExpandSoutheast Spain's seaport of Cartagena is a large naval base on the Mediterranean coast. The city was founded in 220 B.C. and boasts Roman ruins, mosaics and murals.
-
MexicoExpandMexico is a land where ancient civilizations, vibrant traditions, and breathtaking landscapes come together. From the bustling streets of Mexico City to the quiet pueblos tucked into mountain valleys, each corner of the country reveals a unique facet of its rich identity.
-
PisaExpandPisa, Italy, is more than just its world-famous Leaning Tower; it's a city where history, art, and culture intersect to create a fascinating experience for visitors. The Leaning Tower, part of the Piazza dei Miracoli or Square of Miracles, is an architectural wonder that draws millions each year. Built as a bell tower for the adjacent Pisa Cathedral, its unintended tilt has become a global icon.
-
MéridaExpandMerida was once the sprawling capital of the Mayan empire and the center of their universe. Merida is now the center of a cosmopolitan universe, built on Mayan heritage, and given a unique twist by French and Mediterranean immigrants. Days are spent exploring the city's many museums and equally fascinating shopping districts. At night, local music can be heard from just about every park in the city, inviting newcomers to enjoy a romantic and fun-filled evening.
-
GdanskExpandGdańsk, a vibrant port city on Poland's Baltic coast, is a hidden gem that seamlessly blends rich history with modern charm. As the largest city in northern Poland, Gdańsk has a unique identity shaped by centuries of trade, political turmoil, and cultural exchange. The city's Old Town is a feast for the eyes, with its beautifully reconstructed buildings that harken back to its Hanseatic glory days.

Destination Showcase Settings
The settings will vary slightly depending on which display type has been selected, but in general they'll look like this:

Alignment: This will allow you to set your showcase to left, right, center, wrap left, wrap right. If your showcase is set to 100% width, the alignment setting won't matter.
