Celebrating our Dream Vacations & CruiseOne Top Producers on the 2026 Circle of Excellence Trip aboard Scenic Eclipse—a week of connection, idea-sharing, and well-earned recognition. Huge thanks to Scenic for exceptional hospitality (and an unforgettable White Night!). #CircleOfExcellence #TopProducers #TravelIndustry #Cruise

Nothing beats learning by doing. The 2026 River Summit brought Dream Vacations and CruiseOne® advisors aboard Viking River Cruises on the Rhine for an immersive, real‑world learning experience — and marked Viking’s first education charter conference. As river cruising continues to grow, experiences like this help advisors stay confident, informed, and ready to guide their clients.

We’re proud to celebrate Virginia March, owner of March Travel Group - Dream Vacations , as our 2026 OPAL Award recipient. OPAL stands for Outstanding Performance And Leadership, and Virginia truly embodies that through her commitment to service, mentorship, and lifting others. Congratulations on this well deserved honor as we celebrate Women’s History Month!

We celebrated Employee Appreciation Day last week. At World Travel Holdings, we’re taking a moment to recognize the incredible dedication, creativity, and passion of our employees. Every day, across every department, they help make amazing experiences possible. Thank you for all that you do!

Before last week’s Austin Regional Training, Dream Vacations and CruiseOne travel advisors kicked off their travel day Texas‑style—bowling, bites, and drinks in downtown Austin. It was the perfect preview of the Lone Star State, from classic Tex‑Mex and BBQ to the welcoming energy that carried through two great days of connection and learning.

We’re honored to be recognized as one of Forbes’ America’s Best Midsize Employers 2026! forbes.com/lists/best-mid…

Happy Valentine's Day! ❤️

What an incredible Saturday! 💙✨ Our World Travel Holdings team, Dream Vacations travel advisors, and our amazing family and friends bundled up for some unusually chilly South Florida weather to take part in the 17th Annual Walk for Wishes at Nova Southeastern University. More than 1,000 supporters came together for this inspiring 5K, helping raise $300,000 to support Make‑A‑Wish South Florida and the life‑changing impact they have on children facing critical illnesses. Hearing from Wish Kids like Isabella—who shared how meaningful it is to be surrounded by a community that understands and uplifts one another—was a powerful reminder of why we walk. 💫 We’re proud to support such an incredible cause and grateful to everyone who showed up, stepped up, and warmed up with us. Here’s to making more wishes come true! ⭐

Award season is in full swing and our trophy case continues to grow! CruiseOne/Dream Vacations has been named Azamara’s Franchise Partner of the Year! CONGRATULATIONS to our franchise network and support staff 😊

Happy National Plan for Vacation Day! Today’s the perfect reminder that taking time off isn’t a luxury—it’s essential. Whether it’s a weekend getaway, a dream destination, or simply unplugging at home, planning your time to recharge can boost creativity, productivity, and overall well‑being. Where are you planning to go next?

We loved catching up with our Dream Vacations and CruiseOne franchisees and associates during our first regional of 2026 last week in Fort Lauderdale! More than 130 travel advisors experienced South Florida’s local cuisine, rode the area’s well-known water taxis, and connected with our amazing supplier partners and HQ staff. Next stop: Austin, Texas — we can’t wait to hit the road again next month!

Recently, we had the honor of celebrating the winners of our 14th Annual Operation Vetrepreneur Contest. Our two winners not only received a Dream Vacations franchise to help launch their entrepreneurial journey, but will also get to enjoy a complimentary @CarnivalCruise . We also took a moment during last week’s New Franchise Training in Ft. Lauderdale to close out the year in a meaningful way—recognizing and thanking our veterans, military spouses, and military families for their service and sacrifices.

Closing out the year with good friends, big laughs, and a little friendly competition! ⛳✨ Some of our employees, mostly from the South Florida area, had an amazing time at our Topgolf End of the Year Celebration in Pompano—such a fun way to celebrate the year’s accomplishments together. Here’s to great memories and teeing off 2026!

Recently, our South Florida employees and executive team came together for our annual Make-A-Wish® Rally! 💙✨ From preparing wish-themed baskets to creating heartfelt cards, every moment was a reminder of the impact we can make together. Thank you to our partners at @makeawishsfla for joining us and for everything you do to bring hope to children and their families.
