Group Travel Directory Surpasses 6,000 Members
 
Industry-leading print directory and website strengthens presence in world-wide group travel marketplace.
 
Group Travel Directory, the premier tool for planning and executing effective group trips has passed a major milestone by welcoming its 6,000 member. This milestone further solidifies Group Travel Directory's dominance as the preeminent print and online research tool for all types of group travel buyers.
 
Started in 2002 as supplement to Leisure Group Travel magazine, with a token online component, Group Travel Directory and www.GroupTravelDirectory.com (GTD) have grown substantially as industry buyers sought more reliable information and trip planning advice. In late 2007, GTD came out with its largest print guide on record, and followed-up with a major accomplishment in its release of updated technology for the online directory, appropriately labeled version 4.0. The site's technology is on display on the core www.GroupTravelDirectory.com site, as well as microsites dedicated to the religious, reunion, student and small group getaway markets.
 
"We're proud that GTD has received such wide-spread acceptance as a planning and booking tool. It's frankly the only place where groups can research and book every aspect of their group trip - in one place," said Jeff Gayduk, President of Premier Tourism Marketing, parent company of Group Travel Directory. GTD features unparalleled access to convention & visitors bureaus, hotels & resorts, tour attractions, cruise lines and tour operators who stand ready to facilitate group bookings. The print guide contains detailed information about advertisers and listed companies, while the online directory provided hyperlinks to email and websites of participating group-friendly travel companies.
