Join agents in the know and get on board with the AAT Kings Group   
 

Late last year at AAT Kings, we were proud to announce the launch of our innovative 'A-LISTERS' initiative, aimed at providing travel agents with a VIP industry experience. This innovative twist on agent training offers a range of new offerings and touchpoints, including the AAT Kings A-LIST ACCESS podcast and a new Agent Academy Training Platform. 

Do you love VIP treatment? Do you love to win travel experiences? AAT Kings, has you covered with the AAT Kings A-LIST ACCESS podcast. This unique podcast series is designed to inform and entertain travel agents, allowing them to tune in during their commute, lunch breaks, or whenever it suits their schedule - as it’s mobile-friendly.  

Hosted by dynamic duo ‘Nick & Yas,’ friends of AAT Kings Group, the podcast offers invaluable insights into the latest travel trends, tips for successful selling, Australian and New Zealand destination highlights, and information on sustainable travel, among other exciting topics. This podcast seeks to equip travel agents with all the tools they need to reach their professional best and become an AAT Kings Group A-LISTER. 

Each AAT Kings A-LIST ACCESS podcast episode finds Nick and Yas interviewing key team members from across the AAT Kings Group, from the CEO to our product experts, to Operations Manager to destination representatives, to passionate Travel Directors and more. 

They have also interviewed and profiled local AAT Kings Sales Managers from various regions around the globe. Their approach is light-hearted and entertaining, yet full of interesting and educational content. 

With ten episodes already launched, in response to agent feedback, AAT Kings is kicking of 2024 with our brand new “Destinations’ series, where our hosts will be interviewing a range of guests from key state and national tourism boards. 

We are turning traditional agent training on its head with this multi-channel, engaging podcast and online training series. Designed for both newcomers seeking comprehensive information and experienced agents looking for top-up courses, this platform offers training in small, digestible formats that can be listened to or watched.
