Travel Leaders Corporate has launched Connections–a Meetings & Events Company by Travel Leaders, a new division that plans and executes its conferences, conventions and incentive travel programs. Travel Leaders has long offered meetings and incentives travel planning services, but creating a separate division with its own name will highlight those services, according to the company.

The new division can handle groups of any size, to many destinations worldwide. It offers one-on-one assistance in budgeting, planning and executing a range of program options. For example, utilizing its ability to book group air through Travel Leaders Corporate, GDS-skilled agents can negotiate air agreements and compare rates. In addition, a software program encompasses event registration, surveys, hotel room blocks, and meeting manager reporting in one location. The division also offers hotel sourcing and consulting, working directly with a client’s top cities and hotel choices to determine costs and other factors.
