The year of 2011 may mark the end of the “staycation” as travelers once again embrace the opportunity to explore the world. Andavo Travel is a member of leading luxury travel network, Virtuoso®, which released findings from its 2011 Virtuoso Luxe Report. Virtuoso says its network’s clientele increased their travel purchases by 36% from 2009 to 2010, with luxury international leisure trips being the dominant choice. More than 90 percent of Virtuoso’s elite travel agency membership, including Andavo Travel, lent their insight to the annual survey, which tracks trends in travel destinations, comparisons to travel in 2010, and above all, forecasts the travel decisions and motivating factors of some of the most upscale travelers in the United States and Canada.
Business Travel News magazine ranked Andavo Travel as the 25th largest travel management firm in the United States based on the pool of ARC-member agencies who submitted their ARC data to the publication. The list appeared in the June 25, 2007 issue.
