About World Travel Holdings, Inc.
Distributors of leisure travel, World Travel Holdings (WTH) was co-founded in 2005
by Brad and Jeff Tolkin, who share more than 50 years of combined expertise as operating
executives in the travel industry.
The beginning of the WTH story starts with the end of another. For more than two
decades, the Tolkins owned and operated Travel Impressions. From its start in 1974,
they built the company into one of the nation's most profitable, privately held
travel wholesalers.
During this time, they also operated prestigious brands like Pan American Holidays,
Eastern Vacations, Continental Airlines Vacations, and Virgin Atlantic Vacations.
In 1992, they acquired Empress Travel, the retail travel agency giant, and grew
the company from 44 to 104 store locations in six years. In 1998, the Tolkins sold
their portfolio of brands to American Express, but it wouldn't be long before the
brothers would return to the travel industry with a renewed passion and vision.
On July 12, 2006, WTH more than doubled in size with the acquisition of National
Leisure Group (NLG), the owner of Cruises Inc., the largest home-based network of
independent cruise agents in the United States. They also acquired Rooms.com, a
powerful booking engine providing a worldwide selection of hotel accommodations.
Today, WTH provides products and services to meet the demands of every kind of traveler.
All of the world-class brands in the WTH portfolio deliver higher levels of sales
and service and will continue to grow as one company into broader horizons. By building
strategic partnerships and providing customers with the skill and guidance of the
most passionate, trusted experts in the travel industry, WTH offers leisure travelers
a lifetime of remarkable vacation experiences. WTH was rated the 16th largest travel
distributor in Travel Weekly's "Power List of 2007". Royal Caribbean International
named WTH "Partner of the Year" - the cruise line's highest honor - in 2007.
