What
During the fourth quarter of 2020, Avoya Travel saw a significant increase in sales compared to other months during the COVID-19 pandemic. December marked the best month of sales for the brand since April.

Why It Matters
Avoya credits its success in the final quarter of 2020 to a variety of factors, including optimism regarding COVID-19 vaccines and a pent-up demand to return to travel. While these two factors should positively affect all travel advisors, it’s important to note that Avoya didn’t wait around for external circumstances to change.

With the distribution of vaccines increasing every day, we’re confident that travelers are excited to get back out there and we’re ready to provide the world-class service Avoya is known for.

By rolling out new initiatives to members — including an enhanced marketing center, a new Independent Agency affiliation promotion, new text messaging technology and virtual events — Avoya was able to get advisors ready to communicate with clients and book travel as soon as the opportunity allowed.

What They Are Saying
“We’re extremely encouraged by the positive signs we’re starting to see surrounding the return of leisure travel and the momentum Avoya has gained going into 2021,” said Jeff Anderson, co-president of Avoya Travel. “With the distribution of vaccines increasing every day, we’re confident that travelers are excited to get back out there and we’re ready to provide the world-class service Avoya is known for.”

Fast Facts
- Avoya also announced its 2021 calendar of virtual events, which includes Avoya Mastermind Academy from Feb. 10-12, an Avoya Land Forum from May 4-7 and the annual Avoya Conference from Dec. 6-10.
