About us

We started as the friend who always planned the trip.

Travel Agency began in 2016 when three friends kept getting asked to book everyone else's flights. Eight years and thousands of itineraries later, we're a full travel team serving travelers across the USA — still obsessed with finding the version of a trip that costs less and feels like more.

What we stand for

Four rules we don't break.

Budgets are not embarrassing

Tell us your real number. We would rather build a brilliant $900 trip than oversell you a $3,000 one you regret.

No hidden commission games

We show you the actual fare and the actual hotel rate. Our flat fee is the only thing we earn from your trip.

Answers in hours, not days

Most messages get a reply inside two hours during the day, and we are reachable all night when you are mid-journey.

We have actually been there

Every planner on the team has travelled the regions they sell. Recommendations come from experience, not a brochure.

The team

Humans who answer, not ticket numbers.

Jordan Ellis

Founder & Flight Nerd

Spent six years in airline revenue teams, then started using that knowledge for travelers instead. Knows exactly which Tuesday to book.

Alina Haddad

Visas & Documents Lead

Has shepherded thousands of Schengen, Japan and UAE applications. Has never had one rejected for a paperwork error.

Marcus Reyes

Tours & Road Trips

Drove all 50 states before 30. Builds national park routes, festival runs and the kind of itineraries with margin for a detour.

Sofia Nguyen

Honeymoons & Family Trips

Pairs splurge nights with sensible ones so the photos look incredible and the credit card survives.

Our story

How a group chat became a travel agency.

2016

Started as a group chat

Three friends planning each other's trips turned into a side hustle after too many "can you book mine too?" texts.

2019

First 1,000 travelers

Mostly students and new grads chasing cheap long-hauls out of New York and LA.

2021

Visa desk opened

Reopening borders meant paperwork chaos, so we hired specialists to handle it properly.

2024

All 50 states served

From regional airports to the big hubs — plus a 24/7 support rota so no one is stranded alone.

Areas we serve

Based anywhere in the USA? We've got you.

We plan trips for travelers departing from every state in the country — and we know the quirks of each major airport, from red-eye timing out of LAX to winter delays at O'Hare.
