ASTA board approves new membership categories

Saturday, 24 Feb, 2005 0

The board of directors of The American Society of Travel Agents (ASTA) unanimously approved a new business model to create two separate membership categories.

The two choices would be “premium” or “select.”

Select members would pay more for selected services on an a la carte basis.

Current membership dues of $365 would be reduced.

The two-tier model came after a survey of 14,000 travel agents. ASTA officials have been concerned about non renewals.

If the plan is approved, it could be in place within two years.
