Prince of Travel Signature Event, Vancouver 2021

Welcome Back to the Community

After a long and difficult time apart, we’re thrilled to finally be able to bring the community together once again.

I’ve always championed the notion that building a strong network through in-person events is one of the best ways to level up your Miles & Points skill set.

And with the phenomenon of “revenge travel” just around the corner, it’s never been more important to meet and connect with like-minded individuals who can help you raise your game.

Join myself and the Prince of Travel team on September 25, 2021 at the JW Marriott Parq Vancouver to celebrate our shared pursuit of elevated travel as we look ahead to its full recovery.
