I signed up for a HAR specifically to leave this review. Selecting Uniglobe was the best choice I've made since starting in this industry. I would not have been ABLE to start in this industry without them. Their MentorU program is excellent, with two mentors for one-on-one coaching - one mentor for the travel side of things, and one for the business side of things. It was due to the mentoring in the business side of things that I chose Uniglobe, and I haven't looked back. Too many HAs in this industry are focused ONLY on booking, and provide zero guidance on marketing or business planning, both of which are critical to the success of any new small business. The mentors themselves are veteran industry professionals, and to have some accountability, as well as someone to bounce ideas off of, or to brainstorm with, is invaluable. They don't just explain how to book - your Uniglobe mentors will walk you through the industry, explaining what you need to know, why you need to know it, and how to apply it to YOUR business. In all transparency, I am a member of more than one HA, which I started with prior to Uniglobe. I joined the other one first because the price looked good. Once I joined the first HA, I realized very quickly that it was very hands-off. The other HA had no coaching program, and while they were always open to answering questions, I was so new to the industry, I didn't even know what questions to ask. This is an extremely tough industry to learn, and while I'm all for learning by doing, learning by doing without proper guidance in this industry is a great way to expose yourself to legal liabilities and other pitfalls you are woefully unaware of as a newbie. Uniglobe does a fantastic job of setting their ICs up for success, instead of trial by fire. Yes, Uniglobe requires a little financial investment to join, but they are worth EVERY penny! As I tell my now-clients, you get what you pay for. If you join Uniglobe, in 6 months you will be incredibly grateful you invested in yourself and your new business, because they will put you on the path to success.

I've been in the travel industry for over 34 years. When I decided I wanted a host agency's support I researched all of them.

Uniglobe Travel Center (UTC) was the only host agency that blew me away with their knowledge of what would take my business to the next level. When I have questions they are only a phone call away and always with a "smile" in their voice.

I appreciate UTC calling me and asking "What can we do for you today?". They really care about their ICs and how they can help grow your business. It isn't all about them, it is about you, the IC.

I strongly recommend hosting with Uniglobe Travel Center. They are amazing.

I am a Home Base Agency. I have been in the industry for 32 years. I have been with UTC for several years. I am very happy with this Host Agency. They are very professional and knowledgeable. This staff stands ready at all time to help you and teach you new ways of doing things to make your work easier. They take so much stress off of me, so I can spend more time booking travel and making money. I highly recommend this Host Agency. They not only our people for whom I work with but, they are my friends. Do not wait any long come join the Best. You will not be sorry you did.

I have been affiliated with Uniglobe since the end of 2004, and it has been one of the best decisions I've made in my almost 30 years in the travel business. The support is great, the commissions are great, and the costs are modest. In addition the other agents in the group are top notch. We also have a conference each year which has a very good attendance of both agent are our preferred suppliers. This years conference will be held in Florida at Club Med. Last years was at a nice resort in Southern California. The support staff is always there for you when you need them. I could ask for nothing more, and I highly recommend Uniglobe to anyone who is looking for a host. It may not even be too late to make it to Conference, which is in May.

I have been with Uniglobe Travel Center for sixteen years. I am a retired educator and I wanted to continue in travel after I retired from teaching. I worked in a brick and mortar local agency for five years. For my 51st birthday I bought a franchise with Uniglobe. Because of Uniglobe Travel Center's size and excellent business savvy I am able to work mainly with groups and keep my workload manageable, but still reap the benefits of Uniglobe's expertise and preferred suppliers' perks and commission. I would not be working in travel today if it were not for the connections and support I have received from my host agency Uniglobe Travel Center. They are the best of the best.

I "inherited" my association with Uniglobe through my previous agent connection, but the choice was mine when choosing a host. As a veteran agent I don't require a lot of hand holding but I see that the support is always there - quickly responsive, helpful and supportive for my needs....I can work independently but still have the Uniglobe staff's experience and knowledge available. Uniglobe's vendor commission levels are excellant. I would recommend Uniglobe as a host to my colleagues and agents just entering the industry.

With over 30 years in the Travel Industry, the ability to maintain my own business identity was very important to me. Uniglobe provides the back office support I require to be able to do what I do best...sell travel! They are always available to help with techinical support, accounting issues, and provide excellent training options. They really care about the success of my business. I highly recommend them as a host agency whether you are new to the industry, or a seasoned veteran.

There are a number of choices for host agency from which to choose and after going it on our own for a number of years, we looked at all of them. Uniglobe stood out as just the right size for us. The people we deal with are friendly and helpful and while we don't need much help along the way, they sure provide it at Uniglobe with quick response to any inquiries and the right answer to questions the first time.

Over the years we have been more profitable and enjoyed more sales directly as a result of being part of the Uniglobe family...and that really is what they are at Uniglobe. To say 'host agency' and Uniglobe in the same sentence might be accurate...but more accurate would be that they are on our team, even though we are on the other side of the country an operate on the east coast.

The price is right. The service is fabulous. I don't know what more we could want. Please feel free to contact me for a personal recommendation. You won't go wrong with Uniglobe!

After 20 plus years in a brick & mortar agency I downsized my agency to a 5th floor office suite for two. It was a super easy transition to UTC Pro as we already used Amadeus & vcom vendors. The UTC staff is a well seasoned group of travel professionals who are always pleasant and go above and beyond to be helpful. In two years I've never had one accounting issue. I wish I'd done this years ago. It has so simplified my business. I can enjoy "selling" instead of chasing down commissions!

I was cut loose by AAA when they ended their home based program with only 2 weeks to find a new agency to be able to book.
I was one of the best things to happen to me. Uniglobe has been wonderful. 3 months of training, constant ongoing training and webinars, one on one support and more. Uniglobe has a large list of preferred providers who pay us higher commissions, and have separate contacts, and direct help. We have a conference every year where we can learn and meet each other, and the suppliers. If I have a client, destination, or a unique question there is a forum with all the other Uniglobe agents. Someone can always help.
I am a much more confident agent. My income is growing.

I highly recommend Uniglobe as a host agency. I have been in the business for 40 years. A few years ago, in looking for a new way to do business, I found Uniglobe.
Every answer to any question I asked them blew my mind.
They want me to maintain my company name.
They don't care if we do business elsewhere (but after a few months you will not want to ).
They give you vcom membership as part of the package.
The support is amazing. The people are so nice that after meeting a lot of them at various conventions I wish I lived in California so I could pop in and say hi once in a while.
They are very helpful if you have a question or need assistance with something.
Their partner relationships help you accomplish a lot if you have a valid problem with a supplier. Partners love them and they treat their partners like family.

Those who have been members far longer than me (March 2013) talk about them being like a family. Even though I am on the east coast, I can see that.

I would find it hard to believe that there is a better host out there. I gave up my office, staff, phone bills, ARC, commission tracking, employees, and driving through winter snow to earn more money with much fewer expenses

I love Uniglobe!
