Our Brands

We are uniquely positioned to capitalize on our early mover advantage and brand strength as the premier host travel agency in the travel industry. The virtual travel agency model is expanding rapidly as travel agency owners and individual agents switch from bricks & mortar models to virtual, hosted operations. The migration of the existing travel agency community which sells billions of dollars of complex travel annually, combined with the emergence of new entrants attracted to the prospect of owning and operating a home based travel business represents an especially large opportunity for Travelstar.

We are leveraging our diverse network of travel agents and strong leisure supplier relationships to create a portfolio of consumer travel brands. Each of our brands will cater to a specific target audience and offer online access to air, car, and hotel reservations and expert travel agent support for complex travel including cruises, vacation packages and group travel.

Travelstar.com is a social networking Website that offers passionate leisure travelers the ability to share travel reviews, vacation photos and videos, and travel blogs. In addition to the social networking features, the site will offer free tools for members to manage their invitations and responses for small private group travel including family reunions, friends getaways, and corporate incentive travel.

Group travel leaders can use the site to mange every aspect of the group travel planning and promoting process including access to our network of travel experts.

Travelers worldwide will be able to browse from a database of "public" specialty group trips that have been posted by our Premium Members. They will be able to search for and join the group trips based on criteria including destination, activity, lifestyle, religion, music, sporting events, charitable organizations and other affinities.

We specialize in selling cruises and vacation packages, through a national sales force of over 1500 virtual agents, as well as co-branded and private label affiliate websites. We provide our agents with the technology, marketing tools, on-demand training, mentoring programs and expert support services so they can concentrate on building their business and creating customer loyalty. Through our branded, co-branded and private label websites, we offer travelers real time access and booking capabilities to every major airline, lodging property, car rental company, vacation provider, and cruise line in the world.

VacationCompare.com is a comparison shopping marketplace that helps consumers make informed decisions for their leisure travel planning. Similar to what meta search sites offer travelers for comparing air, car and hotel websites, the VacationCompare.com comparison service is geared to the 60 million Americans who begin their vacation and cruise shopping online, but, because of the price and complexity, prefer to book offline with the help of a live expert.

VactionCompare.com electronically passes consumers' "request for quotes" to the independent travel agencies in its network. Each travel agency in the VacationCompare.com network operates under the assumption they are competing with other experts in the industry to win the customer's business on knowledge and added-value service.
