The Top 24 Most Powerful Travel Agencies of 2024

Travel Weekly’s annual Power List is out and this year the collection of the world’s biggest travel sellers includes an all-time high of 72 agencies. The Power List’s class of 2024 increased by 11 companies over last year despite the fact that a new $110 million threshold was established to qualify. (Last year’s qualifying threshold was $100 million.)

Also notable, survey responses provided by agencies as part of this year’s Power List compilation process reveal a “strong sense of buoyancy” throughout the industry, says TravelWeekly.

Newcomer Trevolution Group rounds out the top 24 for 2024. The privately held company sells flight tickets and in-flight extras directly to private and corporate customers. The company recorded $1.2 billion in sales for 2023.
