First, please contact the vendor directly and ask about their travel advisor rate policy. This policy will vary for each vendor. The vendor may require that you complete a specific training first, have your own IATA or CLIA card, or they may require a copy of Levarté's W9 and an email from our agency as proof/authorization that you work under our agency. Remember, each vendor/travel supplier has a different policy regarding advisor discounts or incentives.

If the vendor requests a verification email or W9 from Levarté Travel, please submit a support ticket from your Advisor Hub.  Please provide us the name and email address where your advisor authorization letter needs to be sent. We will also need the name of the hotel/resort, address, travel dates, hotel/resort phone, and reservation number if you already have it. Once your information is received we will send out the email directly to the hotel per your request. 


The Cruise Lines have advisor rates on their respective advisor booking websites. Carnival calls it "interline". You would check the box for it. Most of the other cruise lines have a section on their site regarding advisor rates and the qualifications to receive that rate. 


Can I use the advisor rate on bookings for other people? 

 The down and dirty answer to that question is no. This advisor rate only applies to travel you will personally be on and typically one room only. When you arrive the vendor may request proof of your identity and credentials as a travel advisor (like CLIA or IATA card). If these credentials cannot be provided at check-in they will convert your cost of the room to the current rate. It's important to reach out to the vendor and review their advisor rate policies before booking.  

Do I earn commission on bookings made with an advisor rate? 

Generally, no. The advisor rate is a discount for travel advisors either as a reward incentive or educational opportunity, and so is calculated to disclude the commission amount as part of the discount. Think of it like this: instead of getting a commission percentage after travel, you're getting it in full upfront to discount the rate of the reservation.
