Four Leaders Alliances are Thriving, With More to be Announced

ALEXANDRIA, VA (February 7, 2024) – Travel Leaders Network’s Leaders Alliances, exclusive communities for top-producing members in various niches, ended 2023 with over 500 total members participating. Created to let members with similar business strategies and sales learn from each other and industry experts, the Alliances represent some of the travel industry’s top travel sellers in luxury and romance travel, as well as host agencies and technology experts.

Current Travel Leaders Network (TLN) Leaders Alliances are:

· Luxury Leaders Alliance

· Honeymoon & Destination Wedding Leaders Alliance

· Independent Advisor Networks Leaders Alliance

· Technology Leaders Alliance

All Alliance members must apply with a nomination from their agency owner. Applicants go through a rigorous vetting process, with TLN staff evaluating each candidate to determine if they will be able to add value to the Alliance.

The Luxury Leaders Alliance currently stands at 328 members. While 35% of applicants to this Alliance will be encouraged to apply later, those who do make it into the Luxury Leaders Alliance have an average of $1.37 million in individual annual luxury sales. Members have access to TLN’s own Luxury Forum and preferred access to industry luxury events like ILTM and DUCO, as well as regular meet-and-greet networking events.

The Honeymoon & Destination Wedding Alliance brings together 98 of TLN’s top-selling romance travel members, with an average of $994,000 annual honeymoon and destination wedding sales. Applicants face a 52% acceptance rate. This Alliance offers its members an annual Summit, quarterly calls and fireside chats.

TLN’s top host members are encouraged to apply to the Independent Advisor Networks Alliance. This group currently consists of 55 members with $2.2 billion in total sales, and an average of 14 years of hosting experience. Independent Advisor Networks Alliance members learn from each other in quarterly calls and an annual Host Forum.

The newest Leaders Alliance is the Technology Alliance, currently sitting at 55 members. Each individual involved in the Technology Alliance has a unique perspective to share with their fellow members as they navigate the ever-changing travel technology landscape and update each other through regular virtual sessions.

More Leaders Alliances are being planned and will be announced in due time.

“Leaders Alliances are an excellent way to bring our experts together,” said Roger E. Block, President of Travel Leaders Network. “Members can enjoy the advantages and benefits of being part of a large travel agency network while also experiencing the close-knit atmosphere of a small community through our Alliances. And because they are exclusive and not open to everyone, being a part of a Leaders Alliance holds significant value. It truly showcases your expertise to the industry at large and to your clients. We look forward to continuing to develop this important program.”
