Only experienced agents are allowed to package holidays under InteleTravel’s Atol licence as the homeworking giant doesn’t want to "dilute" its supplier partners’ revenue, senior management has told TTG.

InteleTravel, which was granted its Atol licence three years ago, has cut its licence from 5,300 passengers in 2021 to 501 in 2024. This has come despite a rapid rise in the number of agents joining InteleTravel, which now has 20,000 homeworkers in its ranks.
Nevertheless, president James Ferrara told TTG InteleTravel prefers that only a select number of trained agents dynamically package using its smaller Atol licence.
