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 worked for a local travel agency in my city of Louisville, KY for more than 26 years. After my office was closed down, I decided it was time to go out on my own. I was introduced to Uniglobe Travel Center by a friend of mine who had great things to say about them.
After working as an independent agent with Uniglobe for about 5 years, I realize I had wasted too much time with an agency that really didn't care about you and your business.
With Uniglobe Travel, if I have a problem (computer, airlines, tour company), I can call them and talk to a person (who I have meet) who really cares. I never have to wait for help from them. The commissions from cruise line, tour companies and airlines doesn't get any better.
You will not find a better host agency to work with than Uniglobe Travel Center!!! They treat you like family. Honestly!

Uniglobe Travel has been my host agency for 11 years. I have nothing but positive things to say about UTC. They are extremely professional to work with, answer questions/concerns promptly and most importantly, want to help me grow my business so we are all successful!

I would not hesitate to recommend Uniglobe Travel Center to any agent/agency looking for a host agency. Top-notch people. Top-notch business.

When I started considering a home-based agency, I had a lot of questions and hesitation. But as soon as I found out Uniglobe was hosting, my decision was made. I didn't even want to research any other host companies. After having had a Uniglobe franchise/storefront 15-20 years ago, I knew that Uniglobe was the best and most reliable name in travel. I knew the support and training for Uniglobe Travel Center would be as fantastic as it was for the franchise. I was right. There's nothing as reassuring as having the Uniglobe name behind you when you are dealing with suppliers.

We are an on-site corporate travel office issuing 400-500 airline tickets every month along with the corresponding hotels and rental cars. 99.9 percent are booked via the GDS (Sabre). We were with American Express for over 10 years. We have an awesome travel team with extensive experience and really manage our organization’s travel quite well. When Amex decided to re-nig on our last contract and eliminate hotel commissions we went looking. Uniglobe Travel Center offered us exactly what we were looking for and more! We realized that we didn’t need to pay exorbitant rates for someone to tell us that we manage our travel so well. Uniglobe offered a much lower transaction fee, 100% commission return, monthly reporting, and the bonus is an excellent support and accounting staff! The entire staff at Uniglobe Travel Center can best be described as professional, responsive, cooperative, knowledgeable, concerned, open, persistent, expeditious, sincere, friendly, and simply amazing! We have been with Uniglobe Travel Center for almost 4 years and look forward to a long and lasting relationship. Thank you!

After only one year I was cut loose from my previous hosted travel company with no warning and only 1 week to find another.

Uniglobe has been wonderfull! I feel I wasted a year with the other company. Uniglobe has given me more training. Things as a new agent I never knew were out there . I get more confident every day. Carol and Rose are doing an outstanding job!
If you feel alone and want to be successful I highly recommend Uniglobe!

Uniglobe travel is a magnificent host agency. They are multilingual which is important in today's travel industry. Uniglobe is extremely supportive to their members. Educational opportunities are always available from marketing plans to product education. The members of Uniglobe are a true family always helping one another with travel questions. You will not go wrong if you join Uniglobe.

I've been a home-based agent since 1990. For the first 15 years, I had a local host agency. I moved to Uniglobe because they offered 100% commission, membership in Vacation.com, great commission rates with suppliers I used, and they would allow two agents to have GDS hookup for the same monthly fee.

Any questions I have(generally I submit them via email) are answered right away either by phone or via email, commissions are paid on time, and I get any help I need with GDS issues. I can see the status of my commissions (what has been paid, what is currently being paid, and what bookings are still open) at any time through their online agent center. In addition to being really efficient, they are genuinely nice people who are always pleasant to deal with. I highly recommend them.

I am currently finishing up my 18th. year with my agency and owe a great deal of my success to Uniglobe Travel. Actually without them and some of their key personnel I would not still be in business. Never once have I asked for help that we did not get in a very prompt and professional manner. The other Uniglobe agency owners are great to work with and to meet with when we can make it to the annual conference. Hands on help, professional attitude and a full knowledge of the current markets, innovations and incentives are a daily way of life. These people are totally dedicated and professional. Their industry knowledge is unparalleled and is constantly updated. They receive my very deepest appreciation highest regards and for all they have done for me, my fellow agency owners and the travel industry. Uniglobe spells "success". You're the best!

February 14, 2005; my official first day with Uniglobe Travel
Center. It seems appropriate that it was Valentine's Day because I love what they have done for my business. If you are looking for a host agency that is a real partner, that supports your business and personal growth and that is vested in your success, look no further. Join and "Be Amazing!"

Uniglobe is just that, a Uniglobe of Service that is always striving to the next level of the Globe to keep its family of Agents always on Top in the Industry. Having been in the industry for a little over 39yrs and the need to make a change with our Family owned storefront location. We researched several options and kept coming back to Uniglobe. Giving up our storefront was not a favorable move, we kept looking for a hole in their operation and was a thorn in their side during our transition. They continued to come through. We have now been with Uniglobe for 15yrs and we couldn't have made a better move for our needs. You'll be glad that you did too!
