Valerie Wilson Travel (VWT), the New York-based travel company, recently held its 5th annual Suite Access Fair virtually for the first time. The event, presented over four days, featured a series of eight one-hour sessions lead by suppliers to present the best of their properties to advisors.
“The travel industry is so resilient and we have maximized COVID to do more advisor training,” said Kimberly Wilson Wetty, Co-President & Owner of VWT. “We wanted to find a way to still have this event, to keep Advisors at the forefront of the industry and to continue to collaborate with our supplier partners - I think we achieved that with flying colors.”
The event featured 110 properties and brought together more than 100 VWT advisors for the virtual fair. The program included presentations from more than 200 hotels in 45 countries and 120 destinations around the world, including cruise offerings, from Regent Seven Seas, Seabourn, Silversea Cruises and Celebrity Cruises.
The Suite Access program also lets hotel members provide exclusive benefits for VWT clients who book a suite-level reservation. Clients who book a qualifying reservation for a minimum of two nights receive a minimum of $200 on-property credit to be enjoyed during their stay, early check-in and late check-out subject to availability and a host of complimentary amenities.
