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:
-
GuerreroExpandPacific coast Mexican state highlighted by the popular city of Acapulco, with its vibrant nightlife and beaches.
-
DarjeelingExpandDarjeeling sits along a ridge in the eastern Himalaya, shaped by colonial history and long-standing ties to the surrounding hills.
-
CocoCayExpandCocoCay, officially known as Perfect Day at CocoCay, is Royal Caribbean’s private island in the Bahamas designed to combine the laid-back charm of the Caribbean with world-class resort amenities.
-
GettysburgExpandGettysburg, Pennsylvania is best known as the site of the most significant battle of the American Civil War, fought over three days in July 1863. Today, visitors can explore the 6,000-acre Gettysburg National Military Park, which preserves the battlefield in remarkable detail. Over 1,300 monuments, cannons, and markers dot the landscape, each telling a piece of the story. One of the most visited spots is Little Round Top, where Union forces held their ground in a pivotal moment of the battle.
-
Niagara FallsExpandNiagara Falls, Canada, is a destination that captures the imagination with its breathtaking natural beauty and vibrant atmosphere. Straddling the border between Canada and the United States, Niagara Falls is a world-renowned wonder that consists of three powerful waterfalls: the Horseshoe Falls, the American Falls, and the Bridal Veil Falls. The Canadian side is famous for offering the most spectacular views of these cascading waters.
-
PiraeusExpandSeven miles outside of historic Athens, the Greek coastal city of Piraeus lies upon the sparkling waters of the Aegean Sea and is the largest passenger port in Europe, servicing nearly 20 million passengers per year.
Adding the Destination Showcase
To add the Destination Showcase, make sure you have an unused area on your page to use (an easy way to do this is to add an additional row).
Select Add Content from the unused area:
Select Destination Showcase as the Page Element.
Destination Showcase Settings
The settings will vary slightly depending on which display type has been selected, but in general they'll look like this:
Title: This will add a title above the destination showcase. It is not required
Title Alignment: If you've added a title, this will determine the justification of that title text.
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.
Width: The width of the showcase can be set as a pixel width, or percentage. Remember to use percentages if you want the showcase to be responsive to the page width.
Padding: This will put additional space around the showcase (similar to adjusting the width of an picture frame that it sits within)
