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!!
If you want a full support agency behind you, this is the one to go with. They live up to (and often exceed) what they say they will do. The most amazing part is that in this very competitive industry, you really have someone who has your back at all times. The Travel Agent Next Door has grown unbelievably in the past 4 years, a testament to what it is doing right.
Work from home with the best support and commission rates - what's not to love? If you are successful in the travel business or just starting out - this is is the place to be!
I was with another host agency here in Canada and TTAND is by far the Best, why:
#1. The Leadership - down to earth, supportive, focused and values driven. They often state, "we work for you!"
#2. Technology - wow - always coming up with new an innovative technology, state of the art websites, on line authorization forms - no scanning visa forms, vacation loans, referral programs - so much more.
#3. Better commission than other agencies plus bonuses
#4. Lots of marketing to help us grow our business
#5. Knowledgeable support group
#6. Dedicated groups manager - makes doing groups easy & painless.
I have been with The Travel Agent Next Door (TTAND) for the past 6 years. I made them move from another host agency I had been with for 14 years. It was the best decision I have made in my travel consultant career. The support we receive from management (Flemming, Rhonda and Penny) and the whole support team is second to none. I have not regretted my decision at all.
The marketing team works very hard to ensure we have access to many different options to advertise and market our services.
Since mid March, 2020, TTAND has been inconstant contact with us regarding the ever changing world of travel due to covid 19 and has been very supportive and uplifting through it all.
I'm so glad I am a part of the TTAND family and would not hesitate to recommend them to anyone looking for an agency to be their host.

I have recently joined TTAND. And I am so happy with the support that I am getting plus the motivation which is continuously given and keeping us updated with the travel scenario. Am so glad I finally made a right decision of joining them. Wish I knew them earlier.
I have been with The Travel Agent Next Door for approximately 2 years after leaving a Brick and Mortar. I have been extremely happy with the support team, Flemming F. and the entire support system they have in place. I am so happy that i often promote the Group with others who are considering jumping ship to a reliable Company.
I have been a part of The Travel Agent Next Door family for four years. After experiencing the support team loyalty ensuring all bookings issues are 100% accurate in order to receive the commission on time. The Travel Agent Next Door is the best host agency that has leaders, who have their best interest in the future of the agents. Providing the best tools in the market to increase knowledge. Giving words of encouragement on how to move your business to the next level. It is phenomenal to have a host agency having your back every moment of the day. Ensuring the tools has provided are working and making progress in your business. Knowing this as an agent gives me the will power that the sky is not the limit.
I started in the travel business 24 years ago as a cruise only agency. Quite quickly I realized that my customers wanted more options and the ability to book packages and tours along with airfares, cars etc. About three years ago I saw information about The Travel Agent Next Door. It made a lot of sense but I was not ready at the time to make a big change in the way I did business. Fast forward to one year ago. Due to many factors I decided it was time to make some changes. I took a new look at The Travel Agent Next Door, talked to Flemming Friisdahl (the founder) and other trusted friends in the business and decided this was a good fit. Over the past year I must say that I was not disappointed. The level of support from head office is outstanding. The company has excellent relations with suppliers and the over 300 primary agents are more than willing to offer advice about properties, tour operators and destinations. My only regret is that I didn't join when I first looked at the program. Dal Lockwood
I have been with TTAND for coming up to 3 years now, after having experienced two other host agencies. It has been the best thing I have done for my business. The support, both from the office and other agents is tremendous. The resources offered are way over and above anything I have previously experienced.
