TTAND 10th Anniversary year draws to a close

It has been quite the year for the Travel Agent Next Door as it celebrated its 10th anniversary. TTAND started in 2014 with a handful of travel agents. It has grown to be the largest host agency in Canada with over 1,400 agents and has won multiple awards.

The year kicked off last March with a media luncheon followed by a virtual anniversary party with agents on Zoom and staff in the Toronto office. Jim Cuddy and Shaun Majumder performed during the event.

TTAND agents participated in a monthly draw for trips for two as part of the Big Ten Giveaway — to be eligible they had to participate in supplier training. AND, every month, TTAND also held a monthly activity or incentive for its staff.

The highlight of the year was TTAND’s extraordinary conference held in Jordan. Over 300 agents and staff toured Jordan, visiting Amman, Petra and Aqaba.

One of TTAND’s founders, Penny Martin, chose to retire last summer and was given a big industry sendoff.

All agents and staff who celebrated 10 years with the company were given a specially crafted recognition award.

In October, TTAND held 16 roadshows across Canada with Flemming Friisdahl, Jeff Element and Christine Ufniak celebrating with TTAND agents and featuring 10th Anniversary cakes.

In November, TTAND teams from India and Canada gathered in Dubai for a staff retreat – celebrating the first time that the two teams had been able to celebrate together. The event was a great team building exercise and the majority of TTAND staff attended.

Agents and staff who celebrated 10 years with TTAND were given a specially crafted recognition award.

The year has been transformational at TTAND with some exciting new technology being developed and soon to be announced.
