Circle of Excellence, MillionAir, Gateway to Excellence and Gateway to MillionAir All Reward Nexion Members for Preferred Partner Sales

IRVING, TX (September 11, 2024) – Nexion Travel Group, the industry’s leading host agency for travel professionals, has announced the results of its annual top producer awards for members. Given in four different categories, these awards recognize travel advisors who are high sellers of Nexion’s preferred supplier partner products. The qualifying period to earn these distinctions ran from August 1, 2023, to July 31, 2024.

Over 300 Nexion members (334) have been named to the Circle of Excellence. The Circle of Excellence is given to the members who have sold the most land, air, cruise and tour packages with preferred suppliers.

Nexion’s MillionAirs are those who have sold a minimum of $1 Million in airline tickets, of which 75% must be preferred air partner tickets.

This year, six members are double winners of both the Circle of Excellence and MillionAir awards:

• Arik Anderson, Executive Travel Center, Elk Grove, CA
• Sandy Clark, Sandy Clark Travel, Plano, TX
• Michael Dietz, Celebrity Travel, Edmond, OK
• Suzy Gustafson, SG Travel Two and Unrivaled Travel Experiences, West Jordan, UT
• Stephen Lincoln, Lincoln Travel, Bridgewater, VA
• Karen Seifer, Micris Travel, Myrtle Beach, SC

“The Circle of Excellence and MillionAir designations represent the very top of Nexion’s thousands of members,” said Jackie Friedman, VTA, CTIE, President, Nexion Travel Group. “Achieving one is a very challenging feat, and I am so proud of every single one of our members who did. Becoming part of the Circle of Excellence and MillionAir is an extraordinary achievement for these six members who are the very best in leisure and corporate travel.”

Nexion also recognized members with the Gateway to Excellence and Gateway to MillionAir. These awards are for Nexion members who achieved high sales and have the potential to officially reach Circle of Excellence and MillionAir in the coming years. 237 Gateway to Excellence and 12 Gateway to MillionAir members became part of these elite groups during this year’s reporting period.

“Being able to say that over 600 of our members were awarded one of these designations is very exciting,” Friedman said. “Every year, these numbers continue to grow. Travelers see the benefit of using a travel advisor, and our advisors see the benefit in being a Nexion member and using our preferred partners as a large part of their revenue. It’s a true partnership between us, the travel advisor and supplier partners, and this year’ success shows that. Looking over these members’ sales, it is clear that travel advisors are making more money than ever, and that it’s great long-term career.”
