YouTube Video Description↓

Throughout the years, FIT has meant different things to different people, including Foreign Independent Tour or Free Independent Travel, or Fully Independent Travel, but the general definition is typically a trip that is designed and packaged by a travel advisor for a single client or group who is traveling on their own. In this session, TMR is joined by Neelie Kruse Owner, Travel Designer, at Cary Travel Express, to go over what advisors need to know to start booking FITs and to make the most of those kinds of trips for their clients in a live and free Zoom session sponsored by Avanti Destinations.
