TDC Welcomes 25 Top Agency Owners to Bravo Excellence Club

TDC Welcomes 25 Top Agency Owners to Bravo Excellence Club

Transat Distribution Canada (TDC), has recognized the remarkable sales of 25 owners of Marlin Travel, TravelPlus, Club Voyages, and Affiliate agencies who are now a part of TDC’s prestigious Bravo Excellence Club.

The agency owners stood out for their strong sales in 2024-2025 fiscal year and will enjoy a trip on the Norwegian Dawn next May, on a Mediterranean immersion trip from Lisbon to Barcelona.

“The strength of the Bravo Excellence Club lies in the fact that it reflects the reality of our network: among the winning agencies, we have agencies of all sizes, located in both large urban centers and smaller communities, but all of which share exceptional sales performance—of Transat products in Ontario, the Maritimes and Quebec, and WestJet Vacations and Air Canada Vacations products in the West—either in terms of volume or sales growth,” explains Karine Gagnon, General Manager of TDC.

“For more than 20 years, this exclusive reward trip has welcomed a select group of agency owners—some familiar faces who return year after year, and some exciting newcomers. It’s our way of celebrating their achievements and saying thank you to those who champion the partners that make this program possible.”

The newest members of the TDC Bravo Excellence Club are:

“We come together to share and truly experience the passion that unites us: travel,” says Dianne Jackson, Director of Franchise and Affiliate Members at TDC. “One of the most valuable aspects—both for the TDC team and the owners— is the sense of connection this trip fosters in a relaxed setting that encourages conversations beyond the usual framework.

And because Bravo Excellence Club brings together owners from across Canada, conversations are even richer, with regional differences and adaptation strategies at the heart of informal discussions. Spending an entire week together helps build lasting relationships that go beyond business.

It’s a time to recharge and celebrate success among peers.”
