VacationLab vs. LuxRally Travel:
Which one is the best for Travel Agents?

Want to join a host agency?
You are in the right place.

Here at VacationLab, our mission is simple. We help travel advisors grow, succeed and enjoy what they do. We are one of the fastest growing companies in the industry, and we got here by staying transparent, offering support and giving our advisors the tools they need to shine.

Below are the three pillars that make VacationLab such an amazing place for travel agents worldwide.

Number 1 icon

Support

Once you join us, you will have access to weekly team meetings, our legendary Advisor Academy and calls with other travel agents. Have a question? You can schedule a call with the CEO at any time and he will be happy to help you. Our sister website, Famvia, also provides more than 3,000 free guides, reviews and FAQs from the most popular travel destinations in the world, which will support your growth and help you build a strong client base.

Second step to become a Vacation Lab advisor

Social Media

VacationLab offers new webinars and courses every month that are created just for you and remain available for life. We also have a social media wizard (hi, Sofia!) who will be happy to set up a call with you. All of this is here to help you get started and develop your expertise in the way that works best for you.

Third step to become a Vacation Lab advisor

No fees, ever

We do not charge entry fees or monthly fees, and we never will. At VacationLab, you start at a 70% commission split and it only goes up from there. We pay on time, stay transparent and make sure your contracts and payments are always clear and straightforward.

LuxRally Travel

No Fees, But a Very High Bar to Clear

LuxRally doesn't charge fees, but they do require you to pass an application screening, complete training and then begin selling. Their selectivity is real and they have built some in-house tech to help advisors close deals.

VacationLab has standards too and we've built an AI planning tool trained on our own data precisely so advisors across all experience levels can operate at a high level from day one. Luxury included.

Luxury Only

LuxRally's identity is built around ultra-luxury and high-net-worth clients — the exotic car community origin story is not incidental, it's the entire positioning. That focus means exceptional supplier relationships in the luxury hotel space and a community of advisors who think and talk at that level.

At VacationLab, you can start with family travel and grow into luxury, or run both simultaneously! Our 80+ partners covers both verticals easily.

LuxRally has a deliberately built community with a notable feature: advisors sign contracts binding them to never steal clients from other LuxRally agents which is unique in the industry.

Being a travel agent should be fun, and you should know who’s part of your family. At VacationLab, we have a private Slack channel running all day and team calls more than once a week, with the CEO present and ready to answer your questions.

What makes VacationLab better than LuxRally Travel when it comes to creating content for travelers?

Chevron icon to indicate an accordion of text

LuxRally provides branded marketing materials, landing pages, and marketing training as part of their program. They do not operate a client-facing travel content platform. Marketing is advisor-driven with LuxRally-designed support assets.

VacationLab does things differently. We have a sister website called Famvia that is entirely dedicated to travelers and content. We offer more than 3,000 free guides, reviews and FAQs covering the most popular theme parks, cruises and beach resorts in the world. Have a client who wants to go on a Celebrity Cruises vacation? Send them our planning, dining and room guides, most of which are around 2000 words and packed with helpful information and details. We also have curated reviews of top cruise ships, resorts and theme park rides, with ratings and clear pros and cons for each one. Hagrid’s Motorbike Adventure received a perfect 10 out of 10, and the same goes for Fantasmic at Hollywood Studios. Curious to see what else earned a perfect score? Well, we will not spoil that here.

What makes VacationLab better than LuxRally Travel when it comes to perks?

Chevron icon to indicate an accordion of text

LuxRally advisor benefits are not specifically listed on their site. Not much information is available regarding specific perks and opportunities that are ready for advisors to use.

At VacationLab, we offer not only the best experiences for your guests, but also the best benefits for travel agents. You have the opportunity to access special deals for your guests and save on your own personal travel. On top of that, we run giveaways from time to time and offer a perk called Tier Skip. Every month, we select three special travel suppliers, and you can earn bonus commission and prizes when you sell them. For example, if you are earning 70% commission and the travel supplier of the month is Disney World, selling Disney World vacations could give you 75% or more in commission. Yes, that’s definitely a great way to boost your income!
