We're thrilled to share that sixty SmartFlyer affiliate agencies spanning the United States, Canada, Europe, and Australia have received SmartFlyer Club 2A and Rising Star recognition.
Club 2A is a recognition that’s deeply rooted in SmartFlyer tradition. The program was conceptualized as a nod to our founder, Michael Holtz, who is known to strictly fly in seat 2A for its “prime position” as a way to recognize some of SmartFlyer’s most primely positioned travel advisors. This cohort represents advisors spanning $2M to $4.9M in actualized revenue. In alignment with our collective growth as a community, this select group of high-revenue advisors has grown from seven advisors in 2021 to forty-six agents just one year later.
Rising Star was launched in 2018 to celebrate our new-to-the-industry advisors whose first full two years of booking travel were marked by landmark success. with a minimum of $500k in revenue. This year, we are excited to recognize fifteen agents who started their journey with us in 2020 and 2021 to qualify as the Rising Star Class of 2022.
As always, we are sharing these updates first with you, our valued community members. For a peek into what will be shared with our partners and the press shortly, check out a preview of our release, linked here. As you'll see mentioned, our annual SmartFlyer Rising Star celebration is set to take place at the Park Hyatt Chicago in collaboration with Hyatt Hotels later this summer. In the meantime, we look forward to celebrating everyone's shared success at #SFCORE23 at Four Seasons Hotel Nashville in just one week!
