If you’re an independent travel advisor researching the best host agency to align with, you’ve likely compared commission structures, marketing tools, training options, and support levels. But one powerful differentiator is often overlooked: a host agency’s relationships with travel suppliers.
The strength of those relationships can directly impact your ability to close sales, access exclusive promotions, and deliver added value to your clients. That’s where Oasis Travel Network (OTN) sets itself apart.
Why Supplier Relationships Matter for Independent Travel Advisors
A host agency’s supplier partnerships can make a significant difference in your business by offering:
-
Access to exclusive offers, promotions, and added-value perks
-
Higher base commission levels with preferred travel partners
-
Priority access to limited inventory, cabins, or departures
-
Direct support from supplier reps who know your host network
-
Stronger professional credibility with both clients and vendors
A well-connected host agency opens doors—and creates opportunities that solo advisors often can’t access on their own.
