A quiet revolution is happening in the travel industry, and it’s not being led from a boardroom in New York or a glass tower in Singapore—but from Latin America’s kitchens, bedrooms, and makeshift home offices.
Enter Dreamport.
Launched with little fanfare just last year by Trevolution Group—the same travel juggernaut behind ASAP Tickets, Skylux Travel and a cocktail of other brands—Dreamport is a digital platform with its sleeves rolled up and its eyes set firmly on the future. And now, with Spanish-speaking Latin America firmly in its sights, it’s clear this isn’t just a passing flirtation. It’s a full-blown courtship.
“Since launching Dreamport, the uptake has been extraordinary,” says Alex Weinstein, founder of both Trevolution and parent outfit Dyninno Group, with the kind of grin you’d expect from a bloke who’s just backed the right horse in the Melbourne Cup.
Initially launched for English-speaking freelancers from as far afield as India and Uzbekistan, Dreamport is now opening its digital doors to over 30 Spanish-speaking nations. And if you think this is just another tech company ‘pivoting to Latin America,’ think again.
No Briefcase? No Problem.
Dreamport’s appeal is startlingly simple: no bricks-and-mortar shopfront, no expensive franchise fees, no years spent grovelling at the altar of traditional tourism: just a laptop, a decent internet connection, and a touch of grit.
It’s equal parts boot camp and launchpad, offering a toolkit that would make a Swiss Army knife blush—complete with training in customer service, marketing, airfare booking, and the essential dark arts of remote travel management—all for free, mind you.
Over 387,000 freelancers from 170 countries have already jumped aboard. And no, that number’s not a typo.
A Perfect Match for Latin America
The timing couldn’t be sharper. Latin America is overflowing with young, hungry, and often overlooked talent. Many are bi- or even trilingual, digitally fluent, and stuck between shrinking job markets and rising living costs.
In short: they’re ready. And Dreamport knows it.
“We believe in giving people not just jobs, but careers,” Weinstein adds, sounding less like a corporate exec and more like that uncle who always knows someone who can fix your car.
And Trevolution has the stats to back it. Given current growth, Latin America’s share of Dreamport freelancers is expected to hit 30% by the end of 2025—a target that seems less like ambition and more like inevitability.
Work in Pyjamas, Sell the World
It’s easy to romanticise the idea of being a globe-trotting travel agent. But what if you could sell dream holidays to strangers in Stockholm or Seoul while still in your slippers, sipping instant coffee in Bogotá?
That’s the kind of magic Dreamport’s peddling—it’s working.
Freelancers earn income while crafting personalised trips through Trevolution’s stable of global brands like ASAP Tickets and Skylux Travel. They suggest routes, upsell add-ons, and do it all with the local flair that only someone living the life can.
Not bad for a ‘side hustle’ with no overheads.
The Death of the Cubicle
Once upon a time, breaking into the travel industry meant shadowing a grumpy manager in a shopping centre kiosk or memorising brochure codes under fluorescent lights. Today? It means clicking “Sign Up” on dreamport.me.
The platform’s expansion is more than geography. It’s generational. Dreamport isn’t replacing traditional travel agents—it’s evolving the species.
It’s what happens when a business model meets a movement: post-COVID wanderlust meets post-office lifestyle. And instead of punishing ambition with bureaucracy, Dreamport rewards hustle with flexibility.
What’s Next?
While Weinstein won’t give away the next target market, you get the sense there’s a master plan written somewhere on the back of a boarding pass. Africa’s already on the radar. Asia’s growing. And now Latin America is jumping into the cockpit.
And with nearly a million travel products sold under the Trevolution umbrella last year alone, this isn’t a startup looking for a reason to exist. It’s a business—loud, proud, and punching well above its weight.
If you’re sitting in a small town in Argentina, or a buzzing city like Santiago or Medellín, and you’ve got a Wi-Fi signal and the will to learn, Dreamport may be your ticket out.
Because in this new era of travel, you don’t need to see the world to sell it.
