FAM TRIPS

We invite you to experience Alaska! FAMs are an excellent way to learn more about Alaska, helping you better sell Alaska to your clients. Whether you are looking to expand your product knowledge, develop new tours or have been selling Alaska for years but never been, we are here to help you. 

Requirements:

• You must be an accredited travel advisor / tour operator.
• You must have completed the Alaska Certified Expert (ACE) training before applying.
• Please email [email protected] for more information on FAM trips.

Travel Advisors may apply for one FAM per year. If you are selected and are unable to attend due to scheduling conflicts, we will keep you on the list for a future FAM. If you are not selected for a FAM we kindly ask you to reapply the next year. We do receive a lot of requests and cannot accommodate all applicants. 

Individual/Company FAMS
If you are interested in a FAM specifically targeted for yourself or several members in your company, we are happy to assist with itinerary planning, if available. The ATIA team will work with partners for possible reduced or complimentary rates. All FAM expenses will be your own responsibility. Please email [email protected] to inquire about an Independent FAM.
