The specialist program has what officials call a “comprehensive” curriculum, aiming to give advisors a “deep understanding” of the destination. It includes perks like a bonus commission, gift cards and FAM trips, among others. 

“Antigua and Barbuda has seen incredible growth in the past few years as travel has rebounded from airlift, to restaurants to excursions and activities to shopping. There is truly something for everyone at every price point for our visitors and offer them an unforgettable travel experience. Our new Specialist and Rewards Programs help us showcase the many activities and special features that our destination has to offer. By becoming a Specialist, advisors can offer their clients their dream trip while being eligible for special rewards from the Antigua and Barbuda Tourism Authority. It’s a win for the advisors and their business,” said ABTA CEO, Colin C. James.
