Welcome to the new year of Agent’s Edge! We’re excited to bring you new information from our hotel partners, show you more destinations, and make sure you’re aware of great discounts and promotions from our supplier partners.

As many of you have likely read, the demand for business travel this year is strengthening, and our hotel partners are ready. There are a few business travel trends that will likely shape the way you book travel. This includes the continuation of blended travel (a.k.a. bleisure travel), an increased focus on sustainability, increased use of technology, and incorporating wellness into business trips. Our hotel partners check every box when it comes to these business travel experiences. This includes our feature partner, Hilton. Hilton provides the perfect blend of business travel options, whether it be the brand of hotel, or the location. Read their feature article, Kickoff the New Year with Hilton, to learn more.

When it comes to cities that are fit for both business and leisure, we’re highlighting a couple of great ones for this volume of Agent’s Edge. We’ll start off with Boston, Massachusetts. Beyond its historical attributes, well-known educational institutions, and baseball team, you’ll find an amazing culinary scene. Make sure to read, How to Eat Your Way Through Boston in 2024, to guide your foodie clients to the right spots. Or if you have clients that plan to travel around the world, another popular location in the months of February and March is Singapore. Read, Celebrating the Year of the Dragon, to learn more about how they celebrate the Chinese New Year and the best places to stay to enjoy every minute.
