MLT to merge NWA WorldVacations with Delta Vacations

MLT Vacations will integrate the NWA WorldVacations brand with the Delta Vacations brand on July 6 when the company assumes management of Delta Vacations. MLT Vacations launched the NWA WorldVacations brand 20 years ago to support the sales and marketing efforts of Northwest Airlines.

The NWA WorldVacations brand has since become one of the largest package vacation brands in the industry. In 2008, MLT Vacations became a wholly owned subsidiary of Delta Air Lines as part of the merger with Northwest. In January of this year, Delta announced that MLT Vacations would take over the management of Delta Vacations.

Pomerantz said the Delta Air Lines route network allows MLT Vacations to market and sell the new Delta Vacations to travel agents on a national scale, with appealing flight options from hundreds of cities to destinations all around the globe.

The company is in the process of adding more hotels, tours and excursions to better support the anticipated growth of the business. Travel agents will book Delta Vacations (beginning July 6) the same way they book NWA WorldVacations today –the phone number will remain the same, as will access through the company’s travel agent only website, WorldAgent Direct.

Travel agents will also continue to earn the same commissions that are offered on NWA WorldVacations today. Travel agents should continue selling NWA WorldVacations until the July 6 transition date. All NWA WorldVacations bookings made prior to July 6 will receive the full support and service from MLT Vacations.
