Celebrating 9 Years with Arline ✨

Arline has been part of Independent Travel Experts since February 2017, and her journey has gone from strength to strength, with the past year marking some of her biggest achievements yet.

In 2025, she reached £1 million in sales, achieved Gold Level 2, became a finalist for Top Homeworking Agency in the TTG Top 50, and earned 92 five-star Google reviews, the highest within a 30-mile radius.

A major highlight was winning the ‘Scale Up Your Street’ competition, securing £8,000 in funding, which supported the opening of her own high street travel agency in Coggeshall, Essex. Since opening, her business has grown by 30%, with both walk-in and online clients benefiting from the new presence.

Arline credits much of her journey to the support of Independent Travel Experts and The Travel Network Group, highlighting the strong sense of community and ongoing guidance she receives.

“It really feels like a family at ITE, whether it is Zoom meetings, conferences, or meet ups, the friendships and support make such a difference.”

Here’s to nine years of success and many more to come. 🙌

Standing Out in ITE: Simply Lapland by Sarah Davies ❄️

Sarah Davies launched Simply Lapland to expand her Lapland holidays beyond local clients, offering carefully planned, stress-free trips across the UK. It’s a smart, unique idea that sets her apart and showcases her innovation as a standout ITE member.

Drawing on her own experience, Sarah ensures every trip includes flexible options, fully managed arrangements, and ATOL/TTA protection - bringing winter adventures, skiing, and snowy landscapes to life. ⛷️✨

Simply Lapland is a great example of how ITE members turn innovative ideas into memorable travel experiences.
