VIRTUOSO will launch its luxury travel network in the Asian market with the addition of five new member agencies in Singapore and Hong Kong.
The five members are Country Holidays, Jebsen Travel Group, Charlotte Travel, Luxe Travel and Quotient Travel Planner.
Michael Londregan, Asia-Pacific managing director of Virtuoso, said: “The Asia marketplace is scheduled to become an increasingly powerful force is the luxury travel market and Virtuoso is very excited to be developing our brand in Asia with these established and highly regarded members.”
The expansion into Asia comes off the decision to base the new regional headquarters for Asia-Pacific in Australia, following the brand’s move into Europe and the UK in 2014, noted Londregan.
He added: “The growth of Virtuoso in the Asia-Pacific region proves that demand for service from expert travel advisors and experiential travel that is unique and bespoke is a global reality and Virtuoso is perfectly placed to help agencies and advisors move with the demand.”
