Cosmos and Avalon UK and Ireland head of sales Janet Parton added: “We are delighted to be joining such a well-known trade network.
“TIPTO will enable us to strengthen our support and have a closer working relationship with independent agents through the exposure and awareness its membership brings.
“Being a family owned, independent company, we see the partnership as a great match.
“The events are first class, and the training and networking opportunities are key to us showcasing our worldwide touring and cruising holidays, as well as conveying our new and exciting messages to the trade for 2018.
