Southfield, MI – This month, Sky Bird marks five decades in operation and is simultaneously rolling out a significant nationwide awareness effort aimed at supporting, advocating for, and raising the profile of travel advisors throughout North America. Using the hashtag #WhyUseATravelAgent, the initiative seeks to bring travel professionals together, boost public understanding, and highlight the vital function advisors serve in the current, increasingly complicated travel landscape.
During a period marked by global political instability, flight cancellations, shifting entry protocols, and evolving worldwide conditions that affect travelers everywhere, Sky Bird is urging travel agencies, advisors, and sector partners to jointly emphasize the advantages of relying on a trusted travel expert.
As a component of this effort, Sky Bird has developed customizable promotional materials, social media graphics, informational messages, and supporting resources that agencies can adapt using their own logos and distribute to customers.
“Having stood alongside travel advisors for five decades, Sky Bird believes the time is right to spearhead a wider industry discussion about the genuine worth advisors provide to travelers on a daily basis,” said Norman Knowles, CEO of Sky Bird. “When crises occur, travelers quickly understand that technology by itself cannot replace hands-on experience, advocacy, guidance, and personal assistance. This campaign is designed to unite the industry in reminding travelers that professional travel advisors continue to be among the most essential assets in travel.”
This initiative further underscores Sky Bird’s enduring dedication to the travel advisor community. Over the last fifty years, Sky Bird has assisted agencies nationwide by offering exclusive airfare deals, sophisticated booking systems, global airline connections, around-the-clock expert help, and its custom WINGS Booking Platform.
“Travel advisors form the foundation of this industry, and they merit increased visibility, stronger backing, and greater support,” said Arvin Shah, Chairman of Sky Bird. . “As we commemorate our 50th anniversary, we aimed to celebrate this achievement by introducing an initiative that mirrors our long-term commitment to the travel advisor community. We take pride in helping drive efforts that strengthen the profession, showcase its importance, and encourage its ongoing expansion across North America.”
