Travel Leaders Network will be the renamed company of the combined Vacation.com, Travel Leaders Associates, and Results! The merge will become official on January 1, 2017, and will leave the “mega-travel agency group” with nearly 7,000 locations in the U.S. and Canada, 35,000 individual agencies, and $17 billion in annual sales.
Reception for the merge has been very positive since news broke.
With the enlarged network, Travel Leaders Network hopes to have a stronger hold on the market with additional resources and more buying power. They also hope to be more evocative of the more inclusive nature of the industry, specifically regarding upscale and high-end products.
