Question & Answer Ask a question

Can clients still earn loyalty program miles/points and have their elite status at airlines/hotel chains recognized if booked through OA?
Asked by Tim Mueller on December 23, 2023 in General
Answer by Chad Burt Host Agency Rep — January 5, 2024

Hi, The answer to your question varies by vendor and destination. AMX points, for example, can only be used when booking travel through their call center. Airline and hotel status programs, on the other hand, are generally applicable by applying the appropriate code to the booking after the initial reservation is made. To be certain, we recommend that you always double check with the vendor each time you do this.

Does the VTA certification program give a good solid foundation for starting out as a travel agent are there any others similar to this?
Asked by Lisa Adams on October 28, 2023 in Training
Answer by Chad Burt Host Agency Rep — November 6, 2023

The VTA program is one of several great programs in the industry, including our own award-winning MAGlms. Your decision should be based on the format you will do best in...VTA is more academic vs ours which is hands on.
