Everyone I speak to about why they work in the travel industry have one common denominator: their love of travel.

For Independent by Flight Centre (IFC) advisors, it is more than just love – it is a core part of their DNA.

This is why IFC strives to offer them as many

options to travel to incredible locations as possible.

Here are a few of the opportunities we provide to our members:

• This past November saw our top advisors provided with the opportunity to sail from Budapest to Vienna with a stop in beautiful Bratislava as part of our annual Independent Icons recognition trip.
• In March, our Ambassador Advisors will travel to Cancun for a three-day trip which includes a
• welcome reception, site inspections, and a think tank where they can offer suggestions, insights and thoughts on their business and IFC.
• In May, our Canadian advisors will descend on stunning Santiago as we host our inaugural
• Independent Global conference, which will not only provide attendees the opportunity to explore Chile and the rest of South America but also gain actionable insights for their business, learn from peers and network with valued supplier partners.
• November will see our next Independent Icons qualifiers travel to the breathtaking Maldives to celebrate their accomplishments.

In addition to these unique opportunities, our advisors have access to a wide array of FAM and incentive trips with our preferred suppliers and via our industry associations.

Membership with ACTA is provided to every one of our members and last year’s ACTA trips to the Dominican Republic, their Avalon Waterways river cruise, and Alentejo, Portugal saw great representation by our IFC advisors, who took full advantage of the incredible learning and travel opportunities made available to them.

Expanding on our commitment to empowering travel advisors, IFC is investing heavily in continuous improvement of our education and professional development, understanding that travel is not merely a job but an enriching journey for agency owners.

We firmly believe that experiencing different cultures and destinations firsthand is essential for enhancing one’s expertise and understanding of the industry. Thus, we encourage our advisors to seize every

opportunity to embark on educational expeditions that broaden their horizons and deepen their knowledge.

Understanding the dynamic nature of the travel landscape, we provide comprehensive training

programs, industry webinars, and networking events designed to keep our advisors ahead of

the curve.

Our dedicated support team stands ready to offer personalized guidance and assistance, ensuring that our advisors have the tools and resources necessary to thrive in a competitive market.

At IFC, we foster a culture of growth and collaboration, where every advisor is empowered to flourish and succeed on their unique professional journey.
