This week, Luxury Escapes, announced the introduction of a new industry booking portal, Agent Hub, tailored for use by travel agents around New Zealand. This initiative, driven by ongoing industry demand, aims to cater to millions of New Zealanders by enabling them to access exclusive Luxury Escapes travel deals through their preferred travel agent.
Agents can now tap into commissionable rates for Luxury Escapes’ world-beating Limited Time Exclusive offers. Previously, thousands of agents had been selling these packages to customers without receiving any commission due to high demand. In response, Luxury Escapes has forged partnerships with agents, allowing them to earn commission on their sales.
This presents an exceptional opportunity for agents to not only access Luxury Escapes’ world-beating hotel products but also it’s customised tour and cruise products. Luxury Escapes works directly with tour operators and DMCs to offer some of the most competitive tour rates globally.
Luxury Escapes Agent Hub launched in Australia in March 2024, following an overwhelming expression of interest from more than two thousand travel agents, and marking a significant milestone in Luxury Escapes’ commitment to revolutionising the travel industry.
“We’ve always loved the trade and the ability to work with literally thousands of agents at scale is hugely exciting for us,” says co-founder and CEO of Luxury Escapes Adam Schwab.
“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.”
“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 country” says Luxury Escapes agency distribution senior manager Chris Brandon.
Key features of the Luxury Escapes Agent hub include:
Exclusive deals and add-ons: Travel agents now have access to a wide range of exclusive travel deals and add-ons available only through Agent Hub, allowing them to provide their clients with exceptional value and unique experiences
Streamlined booking processes: Agents can access a personalised dashboard to manage bookings efficiently
Commissionable product: A range of commission levels available on most product verticals
