The Travel Society

I moved from another agency to The Travel Society. It was the best thing I ever did for my business. I was told I would never receive support from a flat fee agency and has TTS proved those statements wrong. I am so well supported and their operations are clean and efficient. I make more money now, faster and easier.

I am so grateful to have The Travel Society (TTS) affiliation for my travel advising business. TTS provides the luxury travel industry connections and contracts that give my business an edge in the luxury travel marketplace. TTS is a selective host with a membership size that provides attention and responsiveness to each member's business while maintaining an impressive sales volume that attracts and retains luxury industry relationships. My membership in TTS secures my business affiliation with the Virtuoso consortium as well as exclusive preferred advisor status with Four Seasons, Ritz Carlton, Waldorf Astoria, Preferred Hotels, SLH, Rocco Forte, Park Hyatt, Mandarin Oriental, and more!

TTS understands that each of its member travel advisors is an independent business owner with autonomy over their business. The Travel Society serves as an active advocate for their member businesses, opening doors and often making introductions and advocating at a senior management industry level.

As any small business owner knows, day-to-day back-office services are crucial to a successful and profitable business. TTS comes with a stellar back-office team. My business heavily relies on its accounting team. They provide transparent, timely, and efficient accounting statements with an extremely high level of personal service.

The vast majority of TTS advisors have extensive experience and longevity in the travel business. The peer-to-peer interaction at TTS is invaluable. TTS facilitates advisor interaction through events, familiarization trips, and online chat groups. The opportunity to collaborate and draw upon the collective experience and expertise of this group of seasoned travel professionals has been a huge asset to my business.

I am looking forward to continued business growth and success with The Travel Society.

I have been with The Travel Society for over 20 years, and they have been wonderful! During the pandemic, they lowered our fees by half to help us get through the time we didn't book anything! There are many, many ways to help us and info to get us our commissions. The people that work for The Travel Society are dedicated to help us in any way, and we are well known for our business. Thank you to everyone that works with The Travel Society!

I have been in the industry for 40 years as a front line advisor. Started with Travel Society February 2004 and have been super happy with the support and encouragement I get every single day. TS works very hard to provide me with the very best commissions and the very best connections to preferred vendors. I am fortunate I have never needed to advertise and think of all my clients as friends and family. It is wonderful to also be able to think of the people of my host agency the same way. So happy to work with such great professionals.

I have been with Travel Society for over 30 years and feel so lucky to be part of a fantastic organization. Management and staff are very thoughtful , professional and always available to help. I would highly recommend TS as a host agency.

From my first conversation 5yrs ago with The Travel Society I knew I had found my new travel family. The agents are all welcoming and helpful and the headquarters is always there for us. These are scary times going through Covid and I am so thankful that The Travel Society has my back. They offer commission plan options to suit every agents' needs and their relationships with Virtuoso and several premier luxury hoteliers means that you can extend extra amenities and perks to your clients.

Professional alliances are the backbone of the travel industry. I have been a member of The Travel Society for almost 25 years and say with confidence there is nowhere better. The Travel Society’s administrative leadership and management teams have done an outstanding job supporting and communicating with us through the pandemic. Dana W

The Travel Society is there when you need them. I'm don't want to say they are a like a family because I have a family. I don't go to my professional partner for that family creation, I go to my professional partner for exactly that a partnership. There is no host agency where one fits all levels of an IC business. Here are some facts about The Travel Society. They are an honest and highly ethical company, they've worked hard at retaining their IC's through the pandemic, they do their best meet an IC;s needs. The Travel Society has buying power with suppliers to benefit the IC's enhancements to our client. There should be no reason why anyone should not consider joining this host agency.

When darkness hits, such as a pandemic, it can be very hard to find the light. My light has been The Travel Society. As the travel industry has suffered, The Travel Society has been there for agents in every way. I look to them for updates on COVID restrictions and advisements. They have sent daily links to airline and country policies regarding the pandemic. They set up websites for their agents to communicate, ask questions, share and ask advice, and simply vent if they needed to. This created a community of agents and a feeling that we are not alone. Realizing it’s been tough on us, Travel Society lowered our monthly fees, which was extremely helpful. Thank you Travel Society--it’s comforting to know someone has your back!

The Travel Society feels like a family, is well respected and reputable. I feel like I am part of a small, yet very strong network of professionals with the buying power of a large agency. Their preferred partner programs and airline contracts allow me to provide the best VIP treatment for my clients. I am impressed with the support I consistently receive, and the strong community. The resources and tools they provide their members helps me work more efficiently and allows me to focus on what i do best, selling travel.
