Beyonder belief: Journey Beyond’s $20K mega famil is back!

Journey Beyond has relaunched its popular Become a Beyonder campaign, giving Australian travel agents the chance to win a place on a $20,000 mega famil in March 2026.

Alicia Triggs, Executive General Manager – Sales and Partnerships at Journey Beyond, confirmed the return of the incentive this week, following strong agent engagement in 2024.

What is a Beyonder?

Journey Beyond defines a “Beyonder” as an agent with expert knowledge of its products and a reputation for going further for clients. The campaign builds advocacy by turning trade partners into brand champions through immersive education and reward.

“Get ready for an unforgettable adventure with Journey Beyond!” Triggs said.
