The following day, the St. Maarten team traveled to the offices in Bethlehem, PA, to speak with agents at a second Travel Impressions location.

Over the two days, more than 50 Travel Impressions reservation agents were given a comprehensive presentation about the destination as well as several island hotels so that they could confidently field questions and offer vacation suggestions about St. Maarten to travel agents looking for the ideal Caribbean vacation.

Travel Impressions is one of the largest leisure tour operators in North America.
