Expedia Group has unveiled new initiatives and incentives designed to help agents benefit from pent-up demand over the summer, including an expansion of the Expedia Travel Agent Affiliate Program (TAAP) to new markets.
The company has also launched a range of special promotions to drive more bookings, as well as increased advisor compensations on Premium Plus properties.
According to research carried out by the group, more than three-quarters (76%) of people plan to travel in the next year and will take three trips on average.
To help agents in more markets take advantage of the demand, Expedia Group is expanding Expedia TAAP to 53 additional markets in the Caribbean, Europe, Latin American, and the Middle East.
Expedia TAAP advisors also have access to a range of Expedia Group technology and tools, including a Virtual Agent that allows advisors to self-serve and find answers to common questions, search for information and modify bookings.
The group further revealed new incentives and promotions to help advisors maximise their potential earnings in the busy travel months.
