After working for a large company for 19 years I made the decision to transition to independent. The thought of doing so was scary and after shopping around for host agencies I realized that ILT had the best opportunities for me and my business. I'm so happy to be working independently.
When I have an idea for marketing or events, I can always call the ILT operations team for advice and guidance. They also work hard to bring us new and updated systems to make our jobs easier, SABRE being my favorite.
Most importantly, the membership fees are fair and the commission structure is great!
I have worked with Liberty Travel for years. As an independent agent it has been a few months but so far I enjoy what I am doing. My manager Alicia is always there when I need her for advice or recommendations. She really is wonderful and makes the experience working as an independent agent easy. If you have any kind of experience working in travel retail and want great perks and benefits of being a travel agent, I recommend going with Liberty Travel as an independent agent. They are a great company to work for with generous commission structures. If you are willing to put in the work you can and will find success.
I have been in the Travel Industry for the last 25 years. With all the struggles of 2020 it has led me a different path to join Independent by Liberty Travel. I am so grateful for this opportunity and glad that I did. I have gained a lot of knowledge of the the years and will be able to use that to grow my business. There is Amazing support to guide you and help you along the way. If you have questions there is a network of agents, Facebook groups, zoom meetings and someone to call or email if you need assistance. The last year has obviously hit our industry hard but together we an bounce back better than ever! I am so excited to see how this next chapter goes.
I have been in the travel industry for the last 7 years and in 2020 I was given the opportunity to start my own business, Destinations by Dominick. There are many host agencies that I could've chosen, but ILT (Independent by Liberty Travel) was the perfect choice for me. They offer consistent training on their systems, daily updates from our suppliers and partners, and of course up-to-date information on all of the Covid 19 entry requirements. It really helps me look like the expert to my customer. Since we are selling The World, there really is so much information out there and what I love most about ILT is the network of other agents that are also here to assist in anyway they can. From phone calls, zoom meetings, or even Facebook Groups, you can always assure that your questions will be answered! I truly love this community! Lastly, who doesn't love a good incentive? ILT is all about encouraging it's agents to sell more and they do so by offering friendly competitions with AMAZING incentives! I am all about working hard, but getting acknowledged by my peers for it! Overall, I have enjoyed my experience with ILT and truly have appreciated all of the support as I started my own business!
I couldn't be more supported in my new career as a travel business owner then I am at Independent by Liberty. The support team is incredibly helpful and the peer to peer support is excellent. Communication is always quick and whenever I need additional help with something the ILT team is always right there. Plus having the option to participate in the company's systems that generate customer inquiry is an amazing opportunity to grow my new business. The opportunity to succeed is right here and ready to be seized.
I joined Independent By Liberty Travel about 2 months ago, after a long career at Liberty Travel. I am very happy to say that I feel well supported. Even though I have a lot of knowledge of the travel industry, I was a bit nervous about learning new systems. I have to say that I found it very easy to transition into their system, it is definitely easy to use. I also like that there are a lot of companies they work with, to find availability and rates. I feel very confident that when I quote pricing, it is competitive or better than other on-line website.
I also feel good knowing that if I have any questions or need assistance, I get and issued resolved quickly and easily. It's been a very positive experience overall.
When I retired as a personal executive assistant, I decided to pursue one of the things I loved about my job..travel! After a lot of research (and I mean a lot), I decided to join Independent by Liberty since I would have control over my schedule and what area of travel I decided to specialize in. From day one, I have been impressed by the attention and knowledge of everyone I've come into contact with at ILT. This year has been a bit of a challenge with travel coming to almost a complete stop but I am excited about the future and my initial impression of the ILT staff has not changed. They have remained engaged throughout and have not hesitated to help me through any log-in issue or question I've had. I highly recommend Independent by Liberty regardless of your level of experience.
I became a member of Independent by Liberty Travel towards the end of 2020. Having spent the last 8 years at a Disney-focused agency, I was incredibly nervous about branching out on my own. I could not have made a better decision! The support staff has been amazing! When I needed a little hand-holding they would set up one-on-one meetings with me to make sure I was comfortable with the new systems I was learning. The agent to agent support is also fantastic. While I am still Disney Destinations and Universal Orlando focused, I know the support is there when I am booking other destinations. I am so happy I made the transition to ILT!
Independent by Liberty Travel is a wonderful agency to be affiliated with. They care for their agents, provide agents with ample resources and an abundance of support to grow their businesses. The communication we receive from the agency for agents via email and social media travel networks is resourceful, honest, effective and always done in a timely manner. Furthermore, trainings and workshops always provide a plethora of information that travel agents need to sustain their businesses in the ever changing travel industry. I would definitely recommend someone pondering which agency to begin their travel business with to highly consider a start with ILT.
From the beginning, Liberty Travel has always supported me as an Independent by Liberty Travel Advisor with training support, booking support, questions about software or procedures, and being the liaison when working with suppliers. These ladies are knowledgeable, friendly, and super supportive. They also helped us navigate through the COVID-19 epidemic successfully. I am so glad that I chose Liberty as my host agency!
I love Independent by Liberty Travel. They have been nothing but supportive since I joined in 2018. While I am not a big money maker, they still take the time to answer my questions and help advise the best route to take in any given situation. Highly recommend!
