Designer Journeys, a tailored travel platform used by over 7,000 agents in Australia, New Zealand and Canada, has officially expanded into the US market.
According to the Melbourne-based company, the US move offers agents access to the same personalised itineraries that powered a 400 per cent rise in enquiries over the last year. Designer Journeys says it achieves conversion rates north of 25 per cent on enquiries, a strong benchmark for high‑end travel sales.
At its core, Designer Journeys will connect agencies with local expert designers in US destinations, who’ll collaborate with travel concierges to craft bespoke itineraries, often within 48 hours.
Each booking is agent‑branded via a whitelabel system, allowing agencies to maintain control and consistency.
Key benefits for agents include access to a curated US partner network, real-time itinerary tools, marketing collateral and on-trip support for clients.
Starting now, US enquiries can be submitted through the company’s agent portal.
“Our USA launch represents the natural evolution of our tailored travel platform and is the product of over 12 months of preparation,” CEO Matt McCann said.
“Our 7,000-plus travel agent partners have been asking for USA destinations, and we will now be delivering the same exceptional local expert network and travel concierge support that has made Designer Journeys the fastest-growing travel business in Australia and New Zealand.
“This expansion allows agents to offer fully agent-branded USA itineraries with the same 48-hour delivery and in-trip support our network has come to expect.”
The expansion comes after Designer Journeys began handling over 1,000 tailored trip enquiries per month.
“We’re incredibly excited to bring our proven model to new destinations like the USA and we have plans to add other key destinations over the next twelve months,” McCann said.
“Through Designer Journeys’ platform, travel agents are successfully building the tailored travel market segment, delivering strong profit margins and exceptional client experiences.”
