When I made the decision to formally step into the travel industry, choosing the right host agency wasn’t just about access to suppliers — it was about alignment, credibility, and long-term growth.

I chose TravelOnly because of its established reputation, strong industry relationships, and the balance it offers between independence and support. I wanted the freedom to curate highly customized travel experiences while having the operational infrastructure and preferred partnerships behind me. TravelOnly provides exactly that.

What stood out immediately was the professionalism of the network. The onboarding process was structured, clear, and supportive without being overwhelming. Access to top-tier suppliers, competitive commissions, and the backing of a respected Canadian brand gives me confidence when working with clients.

Most importantly, TravelOnly allows advisors to build their own brand while operating within a framework of compliance, accreditation, and industry best practices. That credibility matters — especially when clients are making meaningful investments in their travel experiences.

TravelOnly isn’t just a host agency — it’s a platform that enables serious advisors to operate at a high level.

I’m proud to be part of the network and excited about what’s ahead.

I have been in sales my whole life with a passion for travel, but could never find the right opportunity. While I still maintain a demanding career, Travel Only has allowed me to start a successful side business with ease. Our company is owned and operated by true professionals that value each and every advisor. Travel Only focuses on being cutting age and staying ahead of the curve. You will get out of this what you put in, so be prepared to learn and GROW! I look forward to the day I can leave the corporate world and host groups all around the globe!

Working with TravelOnly has been a great experience. The company provides excellent tools and support that make daily work easier while helping advisors grow professionally. The team is incredibly collaborative and always ready to assist, creating a positive environment where learning and success are encouraged. It’s a company that truly supports its advisors while prioritizing great service for clients.

I had been looking at host agencies for about 6 months doing my research and homework. We had narrowed it down to a few host agencies and jumped on a call with all 3. We were very impressed with Travel Only's approach, their professional approach, but above all, their sincere interest in their agents and their success. The amount of resources at your disposable are second to none, along with access to all the major suppliers and travel brands. We joined in early January and have nothing but great things to say. From training, to support on booking our first few trips, to some tips on group travel we are planning, to accounting helping us get set up to get paid. Our experience has been outstanding, exceeding our expectations. While you are your own agent and brand, you are part of a much bigger group that offers you the daily, weekly, and monthly support you require.

As a new agent and brand new to the industry, my experience with TravelOnly has been very positive. The systems are professional, commissions are reliable, and support is available when I need guidance. There is a learning curve, but I’ve felt supported while building confidence and gaining experience.

This is a great host agency for motivated new agents who want a solid structure and the opportunity to grow.

My Experience with TravelOnly – Disappointing Communication & Treatment

I wanted to share my experience with TravelOnly to help others make an informed decision. As someone who has invested significant time and money into this company, I expected professionalism, support, and fair treatment. Unfortunately, my recent interactions have been deeply disappointing.

Despite my repeated requests, a simple payment matter that could have been accommodated was denied. The response I received addressed only a portion of my concerns while ignoring others, which I found frustrating and disheartening. This lack of communication and unwillingness to assist does not reflect well on the company’s approach to supporting its agents.

What I found most concerning, however, was TravelOnly’s immediate reaction when I mentioned that I planned to share my experience online. Within a short time, I received the following message from them:

Dear Shannon,

We wish you every success in your future endeavors. However, we must address your recent communications. Your recent expressions of contempt and the threats you have made are taken very seriously by TravelOnly.

Please be advised that we respectfully disagree with your opinions, and we reserve our right to refrain from commenting further on these matters outside of the appropriate legal channels. Accordingly, your agreement with TravelOnly is terminated effective immediately.

Furthermore, should you choose to publish or disseminate any defamatory statements regarding TravelOnly, please be aware that we will pursue all available legal remedies, including seeking damages, under the applicable provisions for defamatory libel.

We trust you will govern yourself accordingly.

To me, this response was a clear attempt to silence fair criticism. Instead of addressing my concerns, they immediately terminated my agreement and threatened legal action simply because I intended to share my experience. In my opinion, this reaction speaks volumes about how they handle dissatisfaction and why so many agents have left.

I believe transparency, accountability, and fair treatment are essential in any business relationship. I encourage anyone considering working with or booking through TravelOnly to do their research and ensure the company aligns with their values and expectations.

I hope my experience serves as valuable insight for others.

I was on the fence trying to decide between TravelOnly and another host agency and I am extremely happy I made the decision to choose this company. I have received personal phone calls from the owner Gregory helping me with any questions I had. Anne is a top notch trainer and is there to support any of the learning materials from their online modules. Ana will help you with your marketing. If you are in doubt, make the decision to choose TravelOnly. You won't regret it.

Enjoy working with Travel Only, good events, great partnerships. All information you need is available. You must be extremely self motivated as there is limited direct in person support and no check in. Training is all reading so not accessible to all. Software for admin very clunky to use; not very user friendly.

WOW! Already TravelONLY '50th' Anniversary' this September 2024. The Luciani Family established their TRAVEL AGENCY in 1974 in Brantford, Ontario; we have over 1000 agents through CANADA! I've been an associate with them for the last 17 yrs and never regret it! Great support, a lot of educational meetings. Such a great company to work for. We are a great family! Love you TRAVELONLY! Don't hesitate to join us on this magnificent journey! THE BEST!

I have been with TravelOnly since April 2010. When I researched travel home-based companies, TravelOnly came up first each time I researched. I liked what I saw with the reviews from current TAs and what I love the most is this is a family business. Since I was in the corporate world before, I was not looking to enter this again. My first meeting with Patrick, Ann & Gregory was at TO's 40th and I felt at home. Since then I have prospered and met many TAs that are ready to assist you in growing your business. Ann & Gregory and the team are eager to assist you in growing your business with the new technology in the travel world. Every meeting or get-together with the TravelOnly family, it is like a family getting together to enjoy each other company and have fun while learning. This is one move that I have never regretted.
