Globus family of brands will upgrade its travel advisor portal to create a better booking experience and improved resource access across Globus, Cosmos and Avalon Waterways that align with global standards by late 2024. GFOB has also announced Allianz as its new travel insurance partner.

The redesigned travel advisor portal replaces the current local platform and aims to streamline operations for improved efficiency and better agent support.

Key features include an upgraded reservation system with an all-new booking interface, the brand-new GFOB University training platform and The Source for customisable marketing resources.

Additionally, the portal features more support for travel advisors through personalised and shareable itinerary links for commission retention and brand-specific accounts (MyAvalon, MyGlobus, MyCosmos) to replace the MyAccount platform for a more tailored booking experience.

GFOB will provide a step-by-step training guide for the launch later this year plus webinar tutorials to assist advisors in navigating the new portal with more details to come soon.
