From the President

Welcome to the Las Vegas Chapter.

Welcome and thank you for visiting the Professional Travel Agents of North America’s (PTANA) Las Vegas Chapter Website.

As the first PTANA chapter on the West Coast, I look forward to what we can do together to make our chapter the best place for you, the Travel Professional. We are in an industry that demands education. This education is paramount to our business and to the responsibility we have to our clients. We also need guidance and experience from other Travel Professionals who are in niche markets such as adventure, LGBTQ, solo, cruise, wedding specialists, and more.

This is where the Las Vegas Chapter will shine. At monthly meetings, we will introduce you to a variety of suppliers in all areas of travel to educate and keep you abreast of our ever-changing industry. You will have the opportunity to develop a relationship with cruise lines, tour operators, tourist boards, hoteliers, and organizations. We look forward to our meetings not only through webinars, but at places to mingle among other travel professionals, both Home-Based or brick and mortar, who have the same goals as you – knowledge, friendship, comradery, and growing their business.

I hope you will join us monthly to learn, have fun and interact with other members of our chapter. Only your participation and membership can truly make us Vegas Strong.

Only your participation and membership can truly make us Vegas Strong.
