Dreamport is revolutionizing India’s travel industry by attracting numerous independent travel managers, fostering a new era of entrepreneurship.

Trevolution Group, a dominant force in the global travel sector and operator of leading brands like ASAP Tickets, Skylux Travel, Oojo, and Triplicity, recently announced an impressive increase in sign-ups for its Dreamport Independent Travel Manager platform. Since its launch in April 2023, Dreamport has attracted over 187,500 freelance professionals globally, eager to establish their careers in the travel domain. Initially rolled out in India, Moldova, and Uzbekistan, the platform is poised for expansion in numerous other regions by year’s end, aiming to support and connect budding Independent Travel Managers.

The platform’s inaugural year saw robust activity, with more than 183,500 ticketing requests handled and upwards of 30,000 flights to 851 destinations facilitated by Dreamport’s Independent Travel Managers, predominantly based in India. This flurry of activity culminated in nearly seven million USD in gross booking revenue. The United States and Canada were the primary departure points, with popular destination choices like Nigeria, India, the Philippines, Ghana, and Italy catering to leisure and visiting-friends-and-relatives travel segments.

Dreamport serves as an integrative digital hub for freelancers to become certified Independent Travel Managers, offering a viable income source while addressing youth unemployment. The platform is designed to revolutionize the travel industry by enabling freelancers to operate their travel consultancies remotely. It includes a comprehensive, complimentary training program that covers everything from marketing to industry-standard practices and the use of digital tools. Independent Travel Managers are tasked with delivering excellent customer service and identifying optimal travel solutions, including routes, international fares, and additional travel products.

“One of the main reasons I decided to join Dreamport with no previous experience in the travel industry was the flexibility it offers to its Independent Travel Managers coming from different areas across the country. You can plan your own time while learning and making sufficient income which is not something many local companies can provide. In less than a year of freelancing as an Independent Travel Manager, I was able to rapidly develop my expertise, which allowed me to successfully transition into new freelance opportunities and increase my income. If you are dedicated, patient, and hardworking, your effort always gets noticed, and great opportunities arise. Why not take advantage of the modern-day tools and platforms such as Dreamport that are available for us all out there?” says Priyanka Vankamimidi, Dreamport’s Quality Management Lead from India.
