COMMONLY ASKED QUESTIONS

  • Travel agencies are not what we envision or imagine them to be. We typically visualize an individual or individuals in a storefront or old dusty office, helping book cruises or around-the-world ventures, for the travel novice. A novice being someone who has never stepped foot outside their door. This is the ultimate myth. Additionally, we are not an OTC (Online Travel Consultant) like Expedia or Hotels.com and we take great pride in that.

    A travel agency today, is a cultivated and carefully crafted project management firm that creates well-tailored and unique experiences for both green travelers as well as tenured corporate entities and large touring companies and productions. We work methodically, logistically, and with both skilled and youthful team members to remain knowledgeable and progressive in all facets of travel.

    We also exist in the social media age, where the idea of a novice traveler no longer exists, as all can experience the wonders of the world from their smartphones and tablets which perpetuates our agency to work even harder and faster to remain ahead of promotional influencers and spokespersons for select brands. We work to break rumors, myths, and travel “gossip” on these platforms to create real results rather than false or filtered manifestations.

  • ASCOT Travel Services has experienced a large travel boom in the industry of leisure and transient travel. Due to the impact of COVID-19, we are quite familiar with the idea of “Revenge Travel.” A phrase which means, that while we all were locked away, we all want to come out now to play.

    Seeing as the world was taken from us, our leisure clients want nothing more than to see and do it all, no matter the time, cost, and labor required to make magic occur. Our new Leisure-focused team is primed and ready, relying on our global relationships with the most pronounced and obscure travel brands in the hotel and hospitality industry.

  • ASCOT Travel Services was founded as an Entertainment Travel Agency and our work and roster speaks for itself. ASCOT operates with exclusive agreements and contracts to provide unparalleled travel for our artists, actors, performers, bands, crews, management, and producers.

    We are not open to the public, however membership requirements for ASCOT are determined by the need and passion to travel aligned with entertainment professions, and to work closely with our team to create true experiential outcomes when on the road for extended periods of time.

  • ASCOT Travel Services works in exclusive spaces with organizations constructed on a sole focus to offer amenities, non-published rate parodies, and added-value packages to specific sellers of travel.

    ASCOT is currently in contract with Travel Leaders Select, Tzell Travel Group, Global Travel Collection, Internova, Virtuoso, Bellini Club (A Belmond Hotel Group), Diamond Club (A Dorchester Collection Group), Four Seasons Preferred Partner, ASCOT Lifestyle, Hyatt Privé, Langham Hotels, and so many more in order to provide our clientele with anything and everything you would not receive from OTC’s and direct-to-consumer website bookings.
