Travel Leaders Network Expands with Over 300 New Member Agencies in 2025
In a significant development for the travel industry,
Travel Leaders Network, the largest network of professional travel agencies in North America, announced the addition of more than
300 new member agencies in 2025. This growth highlights an increasing demand among travel advisors for consortium models that offer personalized support while leveraging the scale and resources of a larger network.
The new members include 264 affiliates based in the United States, four associate agencies, and 36 agencies in Canada, collectively boasting over
$300 million in annual sales to preferred suppliers. This development reflects a notable trend in the industry, where agencies are seeking partners that not only accept the complexity of travel arrangements but also deliver substantial buying power and meaningful support without imposing a uniform model across the board.
Lindsay Pearlman, President of Travel Leaders Network, stated, "Agencies want to feel supported, not standardized. They are looking for partners that can meet them where they are while providing access to resources and leverage that they cannot achieve independently. This balance is what drives our growth."
Travel Leaders Network prides itself on operating at a massive scale while ensuring that each agency experiences a personal level of service. Members of the network have the flexibility to select which tools, programs, and services fit their unique business models, niches, and growth ambitions. This adaptable approach allows agencies to scale their support in accordance with their specific needs.
Being part of such a sizable network enables Travel Leaders to invest significantly in advanced technology, comprehensive education, and strong supplier partner relationships. Many of these resources are available to members at no extra cost. Core offerings include user-friendly booking tools that don't require extensive GDS expertise and consumer lead generation through their website, TravelLeaders.com. Furthermore, members benefit from targeted engagement marketing and exclusive access to valuable cruise and hotel programs that enhance client experiences without imposing additional fees.
Cruises remain a major focus, with agents gaining advantages such as group bookings, access to sold-out cruise sailings, and additional perks through programs like
Distinctive Voyages,
Culinary Collection, and
Amenity Departure Dates. Furthermore, Travel Leaders Network provides hundreds of educational opportunities throughout the year, including webinars and live events, as well as opportunities to collaborate with peers through networks like Leaders Alliances.
"Our mission is to utilize our size so that our members don’t have to bear that burden," said Pearlman. "We handle costs, complexities, and negotiations at the network level, enabling agencies to prioritize their clients and long-term success."
As agencies grapple with heightened client expectations and escalating competition, the ongoing growth of Travel Leaders Network highlights the value of a model that harmonizes personal support with global leverage, positioning its members to effectively compete in a dynamic travel landscape.
