Celebrating Top Suppliers, Industry Partners, and Sales Leaders
Tier One Travel recently presented its TOT Awards, an annual recognition of the Ensemble Preferred Suppliers who made Tier One’s Top 10 list, and the consultants who had the highest sales in each.
This year’s events were especially meaningful as Tier One Travel marks its 30th anniversary — a milestone that speaks to the company’s enduring success, rooted in the strong relationships and collaborations with suppliers and partners alike.
As a self-proclaimed ‘boutique’ agency, Tier One Travel continues to emphasize personalized service and a commitment to putting clients first. The company’s focus on high-touch support, quality partnerships, and integrity remains the bedrock of its operations.
“At Tier One Travel, we understand the power of collaboration, and the TOT Awards are our way of showing appreciation for those who contribute to our growth and success,” said Shelley Ewing, Partner and President of Tier One Travel. “These awards are a reflection of the exceptional relationships we’ve cultivated over the years, from our preferred suppliers to our airline partners, and the hardworking consultants who are the backbone of our business. We are thrilled to celebrate this incredible year, which marks our 30th anniversary, and to continue strengthening these partnerships into the future.”
This year’s TOT Awards highlighted the longstanding collaboration with Air Canada and WestJet, both of which have been instrumental in supporting Tier One Travel’s growth and providing top-tier service to its clients.
Small Agency, Big Heart
Tier One Travel remains steadfast in its core values of support, collaboration, and exceptional service. As a boutique agency, the company continues to deliver unmatched travel experiences by building strong, personalized relationships with its partners and clients.
“We are a small travel agency with a big heart,” says Shelley Parry, General Manager, reflecting on the company’s philosophy. “Our success is attributed to the relationships we’ve built over three decades — with our suppliers, consultants, and partners. We remain dedicated to supporting each and every one of them as we look forward to another successful year.”
The 2024 TOT Awards provided the perfect opportunity to showcase the ongoing commitment to excellence that has propelled Tier One Travel to where it is today. As the agency embarks on its fourth decade, the future looks brighter than ever, with new partnerships, growth opportunities, and a continued focus on delivering the highest level of service to every client.
