Club Terms & Benefits - Updated 3/1/23
Mr. Travel Agent's VIP CLUB & LOUNGE
Welcome to the VIP Club & Lounge of Mr. Travel Agent, LLC!
Being a member of the Club offers you special amenities and service charge reductions,
and more based on your level of travel (5* or 4*) and frequency of travel. There are two tiers to the VIP Club. The main tier & the ELITE tier.
The VIP Club is for assigned to all clientele new & returning for free and awards those who love traveling in luxury and staying at luxury hotels.
These two tiers have different benefits & amenities. Both allow you access to the Club Lounge by request
or invite. The ELITE level, is the ultimate luxury unlimited level, which is not free.
As your loyalty continues with Mr. Travel Agent, LLC so will your status in the CLUB!
Traveling at least once a year from your membership auto enrollment date will automatically qualify
you for membership in the VIP Club every single year, so long as minimums are met.
Club Membership
Benefits:
Club Miles Earnings:
1,000 Miles = $5 (example: $10,000 luxury 5 star vacation would earn you as 10,000 Miles = $50)
Miles Redemption: (Only allowed in writing by email, verbal redeeming request are not acceptable, and I do not automatically redeem your miles, you must request redemption.) Miles can be redeemed towards service charge reductions of booking charges, planning charges, air & rail ticketing charges, pre-payable service arrangements that allow it, in addition to a print subscription of Virtuoso & Virtuoso Life if desired. Redemption cannot exceed cost of max service fees for active trip.
To Earn Higher Miles Redemption Values, better benefits & amenities & Eliminate Planning Charges Across the Board,
Join or upgrade to the ELITE Level.
Qualifications to earn Membership for 1 Year:
Club Membership Status is at my discretion based on your travels, and I reward loyalty.
A Club Member will stay in 5 star hotels, 4 star hotels, private customization, sail on luxury ocean and river cruise
lines, or travel by luxury escorted tours. Have private drivers and guides and more.
- Minimum number of nights to main Club Status: 6 Nights Annually with or without air.
- Hotels can belong to Hotel Programs, or a non-preferred partner luxury hotel & or 4* hotels or hotel program approved by Mr. Travel Agent, LLC.
- Cruises lines at Luxury Level: Examples: Seabourn, Silversea, Oceania, Regent, Viking, etc..
- Cruise lines at Moderate Level: Examples: Royal Caribbean, Holland America, NCL, Princess, etc..
- River Cruise lines Luxury Level: Uniworld, AMA Waterways, etc..
- River Cruise lines at Moderate Level: Avalon, Viking, etc..
SILVER level Cruise & River cruise line suites MAY qualify you for Luxury miles on review of costs.
Escorted Tours as Luxury or Moderate are determined by class of hotel on escorted tour, and
exclusivity of the escorted tour brand. For Example, Tauck or A&K would be considered Luxury,
while Globus or Collette would be considered Moderate.
Booking part of your travels on own, and then coming to me for bits & pieces of arrangements, for
example booking a cruise on own, but then coming to me for a few pre/post nights and transfers, may
not qualify you for status, unless those arrangements meet my minimum qualification requirements of 6
nights. Traveling twice within 1 year and combining those stays of 2/3/4 nights at 4 or 5 star
hotels/cruises/tours/customization, will be allowed to earn you initial membership. Once those
requirements are met in full you will be given 1 year membership, effective the
date you meet requirements.
Membership renewal is maintained when you reserve a new vacation within 1 year of your enrollment
date, not travel date, and that new reservation meets minimum requirements for membership. At 1
year from enrollment your membership will either expire or renew immediately for you. Rollover of
nights to new year is not accepted, except if nights traveled exceed 15 nights in year, 1 year rollover in
this case will be accepted, there will be no 2 year rollover allowed unless maybe you are going around
the world in 30 days or something! Revenue points rollover does accrue so long as membership is
maintained.
If you fail to meet minimum requirements for annual renewal, you'll be given the option of purchasing a renewal membership for you or your family. This will therefore allow you to maintain your revenue membership Miles and status for 1 year, along with Club membership benefits. In addition service charges up to the value of your renewal membership costs are waived for your 1st trip reserved upon renewal.
Renewal Costs to maintain membership (if not auto qualified):
$300.00 per person for Mr. & Mrs. (1st & 2nd) Travelers on the account.
$200.00 per person for adult children (18 y/o+) as 3rd+ traveler on family account
$100.00 per person for teenage (13-18 y/o) as 3rd+ traveler on family account
Children under 12: Free for family reenrollment.
Rules of the VIP Club Lounge:
To be granted the additional travel amenity for being part of the Club Lounge, you must remain an
active member of the Club Lounge. If you leave the Club Lounge your amenity status will be cancelled
forever, regardless Club Status. If you enjoy that nice bottle of Champagne or Wine
on arrival in your luxurious hotel suite on behalf of Mr. Travel Agent, please don’t leave the VIP Club
Lounge. Clients who are not in the VIP Club will not be accepted in the Club Lounge, unless I deem it
appropriate due to past travels, loyalty, and referrals.
