World Travel Holdings Secures Top 20 Spot in Travel Weekly’s 2025 Power List

WAKEFIELD, Mass. — In a significant achievement for the travel industry, World Travel Holdings has been ranked #16 in Travel Weekly’s 2025 Power List, an annual survey that highlights the largest and most successful retail travel agencies. This prestigious ranking is based on the company’s performance in 2024, marking another year of recognition for the industry powerhouse.

“Being recognized on this list year after year is truly an honor,” said Jeff Tolkin, Co-CEO of World Travel Holdings. “This achievement is a testament to the dedication of everyone involved with our company – our employees, suppliers, and all our customers, including our Dream Vacations and CruiseOne franchise owners, their associates, partner brands, and those who book their vacations directly with us. My brother Brad and I extend our heartfelt thanks to each person who contributes to our company’s success.”

Industry Influence and Growth

The Power List is a definitive ranking of the travel industry’s top-selling retail agencies, with this year’s list featuring 70 companies. Each company recorded at least $125 million in gross travel sales, up from the previous year’s $110 million threshold. This increase underscores the continued growth and concentration of influence among the industry’s leading players.

To qualify for the 2025 Power List, agencies needed to report a minimum of $125 million in gross travel sales in 2024. These sales encompass the gross value of travel products sold worldwide, whether for leisure or corporate purposes, with at least 15% of sales generated within the U.S.

The Backbone of Success: World Travel Holdings

World Travel Holdings, privately held and owned by Co-Chairmen/Co-CEOs Brad and Jeff Tolkin, operates over 35 travel brands, including three in the United Kingdom. The company is renowned as the nation’s largest cruise agency and an award-winning leisure travel company. Its portfolio includes a diverse array of brands distributing cruises, villas, resort vacations, car rentals, resort day passes, and luxury travel services.

The company’s Dream Vacations franchise offers owners live and virtual training opportunities, robust marketing assets, and a dedicated Business Development Manager. Each year, the franchisor fully funds $4 million in exclusive promotions, national branding, and marketing programs to aid its network of travel advisors in growing their businesses.

Private Label Partnerships

World Travel Holdings also excels in managing private-label partnerships, serving top leisure travel providers, including almost every U.S. airline, leading hotel brands, and prominent corporations. These corporations outsource their cruise and villa verticals to World Travel Holdings due to its scale, technology, and customer-centric reservations and operations, maximizing buying power and value creation for their customers.

Looking Ahead: The Future of Travel

The announcement of World Travel Holdings’ ranking comes as the travel industry continues to rebound from the disruptions caused by the global pandemic. The company’s strategic initiatives and robust partnerships position it well for future growth and innovation. As the industry evolves, World Travel Holdings is expected to maintain its leadership role, leveraging its extensive network and expertise to navigate new challenges and opportunities.
