About Fora Travel

Fora is a new kind of travel agency. Our tech-forward and inclusive approach empowers entrepreneurs to build thriving travel businesses on their own terms. Whether you’re exploring travel advising part-time, making a career change, or already an experienced travel advisor, we provide all the tools and support you need to succeed: comprehensive training, best-in-class technology, a global advisor community, and more.


What you’ll get with Fora


All-in-one platform: Our Portal simplifies every step of your business, from travel booking to client management.

  • Book 175,000+ hotels straight from Portal and see all commissionable rates, perks, and amenities in one place–no more opening new tabs to find the best rates.
  • From Bookable Quotes to Price Drop to Itineraries, our tools help you give your clients a seamless experience from booking to departure and beyond.
  • We collect all your commissions, regardless of the supplier—no chasing required. Plus, securely store client payment and personal information, track payment status, and invoice service fees straight from Portal.


Training: Live and self-guided training tracks mean you can learn at your own pace. Choose topics relevant to your business and network.

  • 700+ (and counting!) on-demand lessons on destinations, industry partners, and business strategies. 
  • 25+ live training and support sessions offered each week. 


Community: At Fora, we know we’re stronger together. Lean on other advisors for support and insights as you scale your business, all while connecting with the broader community.

  • Share insights, ask for recommendations, and celebrate personal wins on Forum, our virtual community platform.
  • Join one of our local chapters and gain access to 7–10 in-person events each month, including site visits, coworking sessions, and social meet-ups. 
  • Opt into a Cohort to learn alongside peers at similar stages in their business.


Coming in as an experienced advisor? Established advisors booking $100,000+ in travel per year qualify for additional resources to help scale their businesses.

  • Receive qualified leads through our Client Leads Program—and keep your same commission split, regardless of lead origin.
  • Become an industry insider with eligibility for individual Virtuoso login, IATA card, and CLIA membership.
  • Book flights through Fora’s in-house ticketing desk. 
  • Unlock access to industry perks such as discounted TA rates and FAM trip eligibility.
