About Plaza Travel
History
Plaza Travel is a storefront agency run by the Orens family since 1985, at which time there were 6 employees and 3 computer terminals. The company now counts a staff of over 80 agents. The Orens family is still involved with the day-to-day running of the Plaza Travel.
Plaza Travel's Host Agency Program
The host agency division of Plaza Travel works with both new and experienced agents. A suite of tools are offered to both corporate and leisure agents, including Plaza Travel's in-house tools, as well as those offered by their consortium, Signature Travel Network.
There is a nominal start up fee to join Plaza Travel's independent contractor network, but no monthly fees. Some of the offerings for hosted agents do have fees, but they are minimal.
