From Oct. 13-15, a record-breaking 4,000 travel professionals registered to attend Travel Leaders Network’s (TLN) Bridge to the Future conference. The virtual event included four general sessions; networking opportunities; educational and professional development workshops; roundtable discussions; keynote speeches; and more. Some 100 supplier partners also exhibited offerings during a virtual showcase.

“Our agency members are a shining example of resilience, grace and determination,” said John Lovell, president of parent company Travel Leaders Group, commenting on the challenges posed to the industry due to the COVID-19 pandemic. “This week, they are taking steps to recover. Time and time again, the universe has tested our resolve, and we have risen to the challenge.” 

As the largest travel agency network in North America, TLN represents a membership that includes both agency owners and frontline advisors in the corporate and leisure sectors.
