Two more agencies — Bespoke Journeys and Why Travel — have joined the Luxury Travel Collection in a move that highlights the momentum of Flight Centre Travel Group‘s “House of Luxury”.
Nikki Glading, General Manager of Luxury Travel Collection, said the expansion reflects the organisation’s commitment to nurturing travel entrepreneurs.
“Each new addition to our Collection represents the strength and sophistication of the independent luxury travel community,” she said. “Welcoming Bespoke Journeys and Why Travel into the LTC family demonstrates that LTC’s unique approach, one that unites entrepreneurial spirit, innovation, and a shared commitment to excellence in luxury travel design, is resonating with the nation’s top travel designers.
“It feels especially meaningful to welcome two extraordinary individuals and their teams, who share our vision and commitment to celebrating the luxury travel spirit.”
Both agencies, previously part of other networks, identified LTC as the ideal platform to support their continued growth while maintaining their independent, high-touch approach.
Why Travel, founded by Debra Gibb, has earned recognition for its personalised and discovery-driven travel design. Gibb said joining LTC opens the door to new collaboration and creativity within the industry.
“Joining Luxury Travel Collection provides Why Travel with the platform, connections, and collective insight to continue growing alongside other leaders in luxury travel,” Gibb said. “It’s an inspiring collective that elevates our ability to deliver even more extraordinary journeys for our clients.”
Meanwhile, Bespoke Journeys, led by Tara Wheeler, is equally acclaimed for its creativity and authenticity in crafting meaningful travel experiences. “Joining Luxury Travel Collection is an exciting step that connects Bespoke Journeys to a community united by an ethos of creativity and authenticity,” she said. “Finding partners who share our passion for thoughtful, tailor-made luxury ensures we continue to elevate every journey we design.”
Glading added that the new partnerships embody the Collection’s future-focused vision. “These appointments reaffirm our vision for the future of luxury travel, one defined not by scale, but by shared values and exceptional human connection. Our members are more than agencies; they’re ambassadors of the art of travel.”
