Message from the President

Welcome to Travel Services International

When I founded this company in 1989, my vision was simple: to provide a level of travel service that was personal, precise, and truly exceptional. Over the years, we’ve grown from a boutique corporate travel agency into a global leader, now encompassing three specialized divisions, corporate travel management, luxury leisure travel, and private aviation.

But what has remained constant is our commitment to relationships. This business is built not only on contracts and systems but on trust, integrity, and experience earned over decades. Travel is complex, and every client deserves more than just a booking, they deserve strategy, access, foresight, and a partner who understands the landscape from the ground up.

At TSI, we don’t just manage itineraries. We manage people’s time, their comfort, their expectations, and often their dreams. That responsibility is something I take personally, and it’s the reason why many of our clients have stayed with us for years, some, even decades.

We’re proud to be entering a new chapter with the integration of all three divisions into one seamless digital platform. Whether you’re flying your team across continents, planning your next great escape, or taking to the skies in a private jet, TSI is here to deliver an experience that  goes far beyond travel.
