A dedicated booking portal for UK agents has been introduced by Australian travel firm Luxury Escapes.
The tailored initiative, driven by ongoing industry demand, aims to cater for consumers wanting to access exclusive Luxury Escapes deals through their preferred travel agent.
Agents can now tap into commissionable rates for limited time exclusive offers and small group tours.
Luxury Escapes created an agent hub in Australia in March 2024, following an “overwhelming” expression of interest from more than 2,000 agents.
Hotels and customised tour and cruise options are available alongside small group itineraries via the firm’s global operations.
Co-founder and chief executive Adam Schwab said: “We’ve always loved the trade and the ability to work with literally thousands of agents at scale is hugely exciting for us.
“The launch of our new industry portal allows us to give access to agents to our very best product and importantly, pay agents for the incredible work they do helping customers every single day.”
Agency distribution general manager Chris Brandon added: “We have long had huge demand from travel agents wanting to book our packages and are thrilled to now be able to offer industry access to the Luxury Escapes platform and product.
“We appreciate that many consumers have existing travel agent relationships and look forward to offering our amazing deals to a wider audience by way of travel agents across the UK.”
