HAR is kicking off 2021 with our first-ever Host Week, Jan. 10th-16th!
What is Host Week?
It’s a week-long celebration of hosted travel agents, and the industry that supports them.
Host Week will feature voices of industry leaders from ASTA, CLIA, PATH and The Travel Institute, who will illuminate how hosted agents have shaped the foundation and will shape the future of a thriving travel industry.
All week long, we'll regale you with exclusive specials from host agencies and other industry partners, as well as offer resources to help your business get a jump on 2021. The week will also feature in person interviews with highlighted host agencies to give you a feel for their company culture, and motivational messages from supplier advocates.
