I have been a qualified travel advisor since 1991. I had a Uniglobe Agency before 911 and I worked part time as an outside sales rep for years while working full time elsewhere. When I lost my full time job at director of sales during Covid I decided to go back to my 1st love of travel and TTAND was the name I heard the most when researching who I wanted to work with. TTAND gave me all the support I needed to get the best prices for my business. Flemming has always responded to my request for help. And the inside customer services people are great! Albina has helped me the most. She not only tell me what do to but she takes the time to teach me. Pamela, James and others have always been very helpful. I love being part of a big team. I met Charlene Smith at my doctors office and she has helped me learn the system more than anyone. I may work from home but I am never alone! I do travel with my team at The Travel Agent Next Door!!
I’ve been with TTAND for just over 10 years, and it’s been an amazing experience from the very beginning. The support office provides prompt, reliable service, and TTAND’s strong relationships with suppliers make a real difference in my business. The commission split is amazing, with payouts twice a month—always on time. TTAND also offers cutting-edge technology and truly personalized support. I honestly can’t imagine being with any other host agency.
I have been in the travel industry since 1989 and worked at a storefront travel agency for 25 years before joining The Travel Agent Next Door as an Independent at home travel advisor 11 years ago when they started, it was a wonderful transition and the support given from that day and continuing over the years is truly amazing. Our head office staff in their various roles and departments all work very hard to support us in the field and the travel advisors from coast to coast to coast are always here to support one another as well. I am proud to be a member of such an amazing organization and community with our TTAND family.
Calling The Travel Agent Next Door the #1 agency doesn't even do it justice. Coming up on 10 years with the company, I've seen it grow, but the support from the head office team remains unmatched. As they expand, so does their support team—it's a win-win for all travel partners.
Having been in the industry since 1993 and working with two other host-at-home agencies, I can confidently say none compare to TTAND.
Considering joining TTAND? Don't think twice.
I have been with The Travel Agent Next Door for the past several years. I cannot say enough on the support system they have in place. The support office continually updates their support methods making response times one of the quickest in the industry. TTAND is continually working to keep up on the ever changing travel trends and sharing their findings with all advisors. Great job and keep up the amazing work.
I was with 2 other host agencies before finding TTAND in 2022. Friends I had met on agent trips recommended this company. I am SO glad I went with my gut and chose TTAND. This company knows how to treat their travel advisors. The support they offer is incredible. The commission levels are the best I've ever seen. I have recommended TTAND to other travel advisors. This was the best business decision ever!
After several years in the travel industry, I made the switch to The Travel Agent Next Door (TTAND), and it has been the single best professional decision I’ve ever made. The difference in support and resources is night and day.
From the moment I onboarded, I felt truly valued. Their training programs—especially the extensive content within TTAND University—are unparalleled, giving me the knowledge and confidence to move into higher-end, complex bookings.
What truly sets them apart is the support and community. The back-office team is phenomenal—quick, thoughtful, and always ready to help with a supplier question or a technical snag. I love that I can get a solution within hours. More importantly, the peer community feels like a genuine family. I work from home, but I never feel alone, thanks to the collaborative spirit and encouragement from other agents.
With their top-tier supplier relationships and technology that streamlines my administrative tasks, I am spending far less time on paperwork and far more time doing what I love: selling travel. The leadership is visible, approachable, and clearly committed to putting the agent first. If you are looking for a host agency that offers superior support, exceptional training, and a community to help you thrive, I wholeheartedly recommend TTAND!

I was completely overwhelmed and shocked with the amount of support and encouragement TTAND offers its agents. The owner Flemming is amazing at supporting our small businesses. TTAND has given me back passion for the travel business! They listen and encourage and help in all areas to make their agents a success.
The best decision I ever made was to become a Travel Advisor. The 2nd best decision I ever made was to have The Travel Agent Next Door as my host agency. But they are so much more than a host agency. They are the best support team in all of Canada. From the TOP (Flemming Friishdahl) down, each and every person at TTAND has our best interests at heart. We are a family, and I couldn't be happier where I am. Thank you for everything! Beverley Edgar
