Travel Leaders Network’s Fall ELEVATE U.S. Regionals Series Brings the Power of Its Network Closer to Home

 

NEW YORK (August 13, 2026) – Travel Leaders Network (TLN), the travel industry’s leading consortium, will bring members together in six U.S. cities this fall for ELEVATE U.S. Regionals, its signature small-group event series. ELEVATE U.S. Regionals combines the scale and resources of TLN’s network with the value of local connection, giving members the opportunity to learn, exchange ideas and build relationships with fellow travel professionals, preferred partners and TLN experts closer to home.

 

This fall’s ELEVATE U.S. Regionals events will be held in:

 

• Charlotte, NC (September 10, 2026)

 

• Dallas, TX (September 17, 2026)

 

• Philadelphia, PA (September 29, 2026)

 

• Houston, TX (October 8, 2026)

 

• Fort Lauderdale, FL (October 15, 2026)

 

• Phoenix, AZ (November 4, 2026)

 

ELEVATE U.S. Regionals are complimentary and open exclusively to TLN members, with most events currently waitlist-only.

 

While TLN connects travel professionals across North America, ELEVATE U.S. Regionals creates a more intimate setting for members to build relationships within their own regions. Attendees can compare experiences, exchange ideas and meet nearby agency owners and advisors who understand the opportunities and challenges of running a travel business—connections that can continue well beyond the event itself.

 

Members also get an inside look at the latest tools, programs and resources available through TLN, with practical education focused on putting those benefits to work in their businesses. This fall’s sessions include SNAP and Cruise Complete, TLN’s proprietary online booking tools for air and cruise, as well as AI enhancements to Agent Profiler, TLN’s lead generation tool.

 

Fraud awareness and prevention will also be a key focus, with guidance to help members recognize potential threats and better protect their agencies and clients. Together, the sessions reflect TLN’s focus on helping agencies navigate changing technology while protecting and growing their businesses.

 

Members will also explore Internova Travel Group’s SELECT, CURATED and Worldwide Hotels and In-Country Partners programs, as well as Distinctive Voyages cruise programs, and how these resources can help them grow sales and create memorable experiences for their clients.

 

The day concludes with preferred partner roundtables and a trade show, giving members valuable face time with the people behind leading travel brands. Members can ask questions, learn about new products and opportunities, and build relationships with partners they can turn to long after the event.

 

“Our members are part of a large and powerful network, but a network this large should never feel impersonal,” said Lindsay Pearlman, President, Travel Leaders Network. “ELEVATE U.S. Regionals brings that network to the local level. Members can sit across the table from our team, our partners and other advisors in their own communities, share what’s working and build relationships they can rely on long after the event ends.”

 

By bringing TLN directly to members in their regions, ELEVATE U.S. Regionals makes it easier to tap into the resources of a large network while building the personal connections and sense of community that help members succeed.
