Terry L. Branch| Owner, CTA, ACC

I am proud to announce I am a Certified Travel Associate (CTA®). I have earned this prestigious designation from The Travel Institute after completing a rigorous certification program, demonstrating essential industry knowledge and experience, and exemplifying the highest standards of professionalism.

As an experienced Travel Associate with over 20 years of experience with a demonstrated history of working in the leisure, travel & tourism industry, I bring knowledge, professionalism, ethics, and a proven record of integrity, treating every client with respect and providing impeccable service. Referrals and loyal clients are the best compliments a travel professional can have. I must be doing something right.

I have 20+ years of experience in the cruise and hospitality industry, including 10+ years as a government meeting planner in the federal sector. I hold many business development and destination certifications, including (but not limited to) Costa Rica, Belize, Hawaii, The Bahamas, Jamaica, The Middle East, Africa (Egypt specific), Las Vegas, and New Orleans. Cruise Line certification includes Carnival, Royal Caribbean, Norwegian, VIrgin Voyages, Regent Seven Seas, and Oceania. NOt only do we hold such certifications, but we have visited and sent clients!

 I am very passionate about the travel business. It's a fantastic way to see the world, plus I get to live vicariously through my clients by hearing about their adventures. I sell dreams! Everyone dreams about going and doing something unique on their vacation - and my goal is to make that happen. It's also gratifying when clients come home and thank me and tell me how great it was.

Being a Travel Associate is the best business in the world, but it's more than just booking reservations. It takes energy, a lot of time, and continued education. I work seven days a week, at all hours, doing administrative work, marketing, researching, planning amazing vacations, and working on my next travel certification to stay on top of my game. I get to travel to research cruise ships or to visit all-inclusive resorts or new destinations so that I can provide my unique experiences to share with my clients.

I love what I do, making people happy and planning amazing vacations for them, so this is not "work". Going the extra mile to provide the service my clients deserve and expect is a no-brainer. When you allow Gino's Travel Agency to help you plan your unforgettable vacation, you get the best of the best in a Travel Associate like me.

            Gino's Travel Agency is ready to help you make that step. 

      Add "travel" to your list of things you must do in 2024!
