    World Service Center

    Millions of travelers were left stranded in Europe after volcanic ash from the Icelandic volcano covered the skies in early April. With no hesitation, Travel Guard’s World Service Center (WSC) was proactive in helping those in need with flight re-booking, cancelling flights and finding hotel accommodations. Even with high call volumes, the World Service Center provided “astonishing customer service” to all of those in need. Learn more.  


    Travel Costs

    Could the recession be on its way out? According to a Travel Guard poll – some agents think so. The Travel Guard Pulse Poll surveys agents on the latest trends in travel and the latest survey conducted in June indicates that the majority of vacationers are now spending more money on vacation than in recent years – and their destination of choice may not be what you think.

    In April, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) stated that current weather patterns combined with El Nino will make for a busier than usual hurricane season compared to past years. The 2010 forecast calls for 15 tropical storms (average is 10), 8 hurricanes (average is 6), and 4 major, Category 3 or greater, storms (average is 2). Learn more.
