The agents at
East-West use their extensive industry
experience to provide all-inclusive travel assistance for
clients. The business’ capabilities include: corporate
air/hotel/rental car services; group meeting and incentive
travel awards programs; personal, individual vacation
cruise, resort, and tour destinations; and customized FIT
(foreign independent travel) programs.
SPECIAL CORPORATE SERVICES
East-West provides rapid reservation confirmation and instant
e-ticketing for last minute travelers. Electronically astute, the
company also works via email for speed and clarity. Further,
East-West provides clients 24-hour emergency travel assistance when
special situations arise.
The company utilizes direct connections to the worldwide Amadeus
computer reservations system that affords all agents the fastest and
most accurate rates and current schedules.
East-West is also an affiliate of the Vacation. Com consortium,
another source of travel values for the company’s clients.
LARGE AGENCY CAPABILITY
The company is a licensed and bonded seller of travel in the
State of Florida, and is an appointed ARC Agency for direct,

to provide large agency services in a small-company, personalized
environment.
