This month, GTC will launch ‘GTC Concierge Powered by Ten’, a white-label service crafted to offer an elevated level of support to advisors, to its network of more than 1,500 travel advisors.
Through this new relationship, Global Travel Collection advisors can work closely with on-the-ground concierge experts, for help sourcing restaurant tables and exclusive experiences such as VIP tickets for concerts, sporting events, art exhibitions and more.
