She earned national acclaim via Baxter Media’s Travel Agent & Beyond Award and international recognition through the Saint Lucia Global Piton Awards.
Barbour has been named the recipient of Baxter Media’s 2026 Travel Agent & Beyond Award, a yearly honor that celebrates outstanding professionalism, client service, mentorship, and contributions to Canada’s travel industry. The award is given following a nomination and evaluation process that highlights advisors who consistently demonstrate excellence in serving travelers.
She was also recognized at the 2026 Saint Lucia Global Piton Awards, where she received both a Global Piton Award and the CEO Award for Canada. The CEO Award recognizes exceptional destination advocacy and leadership among Canadian travel professionals.
Together, these recognitions reflect Barbour’s enduring commitment to assisting clients in planning destination weddings, honeymoons, luxury vacations, group travel, and customized itineraries while upholding the high level of personalized service for which Travel Time Agency has become known.

"She is knowledgeable, extremely thorough in her work, highly organized, and always honest in her recommendations, which builds strong trust and long-term client relationships. She holds the hands of newer agents entering the industry, which speaks volumes. She gives back to the community in Canada and Jamaica where we operate during any crisis. She represents the industry exceptionally well.”
The latest accolades add to a career that has included recognition from leading tourism organizations and travel suppliers. Among Barbour’s additional achievements are Joint First Place in the 2026 St. Vincent and the Grenadines Diamond Rewards Program, Second Place in the 2025 Diamond Rewards Program, the CEO’s Excellence in Social Media Award, recognition among Sandals Resorts’ Best of the Best Agencies, Top Butler Suite Travel Agency for Atlantic Canada, and recognition from the Jamaica Tourist Board.
