In a bold move to redefine travel advisory operations, 1000 Mile Travel Group (1000MTG) has announced the expansion of its groundbreaking platform, 1000Access, to include seamless hotel and car rental bookings. Following a successful North American soft launch earlier this year, this game-changing platform continues transforming travel advisors’ operations, empowering them with tools to maximize efficiency, revenue, and client satisfaction.
Co-created with Sabre, a global leader in travel technology, 1000Access is more than a booking tool—it’s a comprehensive solution tailored for independent travel advisors, Virtuoso members, and mid-sized agencies. With this new addition, the platform offers a one-stop solution for flights, hotels, and car rentals.
“A Game-Changer for Travel Advisors”
Nicola Veltman, Co-founder and CEO of 1000MTG shared the vision behind 1000Access: “Our goal has always been clear: to create a platform that saves time and drives revenue for travel advisors. Today, 1000Access has evolved into a game-changer, offering unparalleled real-time access to diverse content and advanced features like automated ticketing, negotiated fares, and commission tracking.”
Travel advisors have navigated fragmented systems and lost revenue by relying on third-party websites for years. With 1000Access, those inefficiencies are a thing of the past. Advisors can now compare rates, check availability, and make bookings from a unified dashboard, saving hours of manual work.
Ben Ross, Co-founder and CEO of 1000MTG, emphasized the platform’s financial benefits: “Too often, advisors miss out on commissions by using platforms that don’t pay. 1000Access is changing that by putting earnings right where they belong—into the advisors’ pockets.”
Efficiency Meets Innovation
Designed to simplify workflows, 1000Access automates tasks such as managing traveller profiles, generating invoices, and creating detailed itineraries. This frees travel advisors to focus on providing personalized, top-tier service for their clients.
“This isn’t just another tool,” Ross adds. “Powered by Sabre Red LaunchPad, 1000Access leverages backend automation and custom-built content to ensure maximum productivity for every advisor.”
Key features of 1000Access include:
- Automated Commission Tracking: Advisors never miss a payment.
- Business Performance Insights: Track top destinations, up-selling opportunities, and revenue trends.
- Tailored Client Management: Manage loyalty programs, preferences, and special requests effortlessly.
Actual Results Fuel Growing Demand
The success of 1000Access is already evident. Since the soft launch, 40% of 1000MTG’s North American advisors have adopted the platform, earning over $120,000 in airline commissions.
“Our biggest challenge now?” Ross reveals. “Keeping up with the demand. The market has been waiting for a tool like this, and the interest is overwhelming.”
Empowering Advisors with Seamless Transition
Transitioning to 1000Access is straightforward, even for those without prior GDS experience. The platform eliminates the need for GDS knowledge, offering extensive training, live webinars, and ongoing support. Regular updates ensure advisors are equipped with cutting-edge tools in an ever-evolving industry.
“Switching platforms can feel daunting,” says Veltman, “but 1000Access makes it easy. Advisors can hit the ground running, backed by our dedicated support team and intuitive design.”
A Vision for the Future of Travel Advisory
As 1000MTG approaches its 10th anniversary, its long-term vision is clear: to empower travel advisors with tools that streamline operations and create unmatched client experiences.
“1000Access represents the future of travel advisory,” concludes Ross. “It’s a powerful solution for advisors looking to elevate their service, grow their revenue, and gain a competitive edge in today’s dynamic travel landscape.”
