Preferred supplier benefits have long been part of the agent-supplier equation, and it's long been considered a win for both sides. Suppliers benefit from increased bookings, and agents, in turn, benefit from higher commissions and financial incentives that are often passed down to their clients in the way of reduced rates or special incidentals and perks.
But the preferred supplier relationship extends well beyond the dollar with the Insider Circle program, an exclusive benefit from Mark Travel's Funjet Vacations.
Through the Insider Circle program, when you book a trip through one of Funjet's brands, you and your clients have access to such exclusive perks as VIP service, free private transfers, exclusive gifts and access to private beaches.
When you partner with Funjet, the world is your oyster. Here's just a sampling of what's on offer:
