Travel Leaders has 10 new suppliers for its Canadian members

Travel Leaders Network welcomed 10 new travel suppliers for its Canadian members this year.

The expansion aims to address the growing needs of Travel Leaders Network’s Canadian member agencies, the company said in a press release.

Additionally, the organization has expanded its destination partners, which now includes 100 partners

New supplier partners that will appeal to agencies of all sizes and types include Blue Diamond Resorts, Brand USA, Destination Greater Victoria, Greek National Tourism Organization, Korea Tourism Organization, Madrid Tourism Board, The Amazon Porto de Galinhas Recife, Palladium Hotel Group, Playa Hotels & Resorts and Visit Orlando.

Additionally, ITA Airways and La Compagnie Airlines became preferred and will be available on Travel Leaders’ point-and click booking tool SNAP.

Canadian members are already using SNAP for car and hotel bookings, and beginning in June, they will be able to use the tool to book air on preferred partners.

“There seems to be a trend showing a growing number of new supplier partners, such as global destinations and hotels and resorts, who are joining Travel Leaders Network to leverage their resources and reach a wider network of qualified travel advisors,” said Christine James, Travel Leaders Network’s Vice President, Canada, in a statement. 

She added: “It is testament to our targeted marketing programs and benefits, like access to booking incentives, group rate pricing and educational events, which help supplier partners build stronger relationships with advisors. While our membership as a whole is already quite strong, these new supplier partners are positive additions to our network and will help bolster our organization.”
