GTC has provided amazing opportunities for the growth of my business. Lots of personal development tools and with such large buying power, it's allowed me make money on more things which may have previously been non-commissionable. The contracts are very robust resulting in increased profitability. Support is plentiful and there's always someone available to assist if needed.
GTC has been wonderful in supporting and promoting the growth of my business. From the beginning, GTC provided the mentorship, exclusive partnership to suppliers, and the technology/tools needed to run my travel business. In particular, love how the organization spotlights and promotes their advisor community through engaging and creative projects. For example, GTC gave me the opportunity to showcase my work as a travel advisor on the NBC reality TV show called Extra Mile Club.
GTC has been very helpful in many ways. My present title is “Independent Contractor” but I still like the title of travel advisor. I owned my own agency for more than 40 years. But merging with ALTOUR/The Travel Authority gave me the freedom to run my solo little business but with lots of GTC backup. The IT department is so helpful when I have both important problems and with little things. The accounting staff are angels from heaven to someone who would rather do an FIT to Japan than do an invoice. My clients get preferred treatment from many vendors and hotels, giving me an edge. I get vital updates about world and travel situations, passport problems, etc. Yes, I am very glad that I am now an IC with GTC/Traveleaders.
Thank you, Vicky, for sharing your experience. We’re glad GTC provides the support and infrastructure that allows you to run your business independently while still having strong IT, accounting, and supplier backing. We appreciate your partnership and are happy to support you and your clients.

From the moment I joined, I was impressed by their professionalism and commitment to supporting travel advisors. The agency’s vast resources and comprehensive training programs have significantly enhanced my ability to deliver exceptional service to my clients.
One of the standout features of Global Travel Collection is their extensive network of preferred suppliers. This access not only provides me with competitive pricing but also ensures that my clients receive exclusive perks and benefits that enhance their travel experiences. The agency’s strong relationships with top-tier hotels, cruise lines, and tour operators have proven invaluable in curating unique and memorable itineraries.
Moreover, the ongoing support from the Global Travel Collection team has been remarkable. They are always available to answer questions, provide guidance, and share industry insights. The collaborative culture fosters a sense of community among advisors, making it easy to exchange ideas and best practices. The regular webinars and training sessions are also incredibly beneficial, keeping us abreast of the latest trends and developments in the travel industry.
In addition, the technology platform offered by Global Travel Collection is user-friendly and efficient, streamlining the booking process and allowing me to focus more on my clients rather than administrative tasks. This efficiency contributes to a more productive work environment and ultimately enhances client satisfaction.
Overall, I wholeheartedly recommend Global Travel Collection to any travel advisor seeking a robust and supportive host agency.

There are some great learning tools offered when you join Global Travel Collection. Webinars, in office presentations and more online. In addition, better commissions are offered as Virtuoso members, which add to the commission amount. No matter how long you have been in the industry, there is always a need to learn more about destinations and resources.
Thank you for sharing your perspective and for your many years in the industry. We’re proud to support your business with dedicated teams and exclusive partnerships that help you deliver exceptional experiences for your clients.
Best airline contracts/cruise and tour contacts. Back office is top notch and support couldn't be any better . Other consortium's including Amex could learn how to support IC's like GTC does now and has from the beginning
Also so much information at our fingertips....because of volume they have the best relationships with all of the vendors . Couldn't ask for a better partnership in this business especially coming from one of the other consortium's that really only cared about revenue and not the person or the customers. GTC puts IC's at the top of their priorities as we continue to navigate all of the changes in the industry ....40 year plus year agent finally found the right fit and so happy we found them during cvoid when all of the others were not taking care of their employees GTC took us all in like family and we started making good decisions instead of just getting rid of people
Thank you for sharing your experience and trust in GTC. We’re proud to support our advisors with strong partnerships, dedicated support, and a people-first approach, especially through times of change.
