Whether you’re planning a summer vacation, booking a cruise, looking for a great golf vacation or spa get-a-way, planning an extended business trip or even planning a trip for the Christmas holidays, we’ve got the help you need! Through our customized website, AACPM members and supporters can now book their personal and business travel 24 hours a day, 7 days a week!

With $7-trillion generated in sales, travel is the largest industry in the world and produces huge amounts of travel commissions. The typical family spends $3,000 per year on vacation, and chances are someone you know will buy travel online this week, the fastest growing commercial segment.

In the upcoming months, the Integrated Marketing & Resource Catalog Committee will provide members with additional information about the AACPM’s travel website (http://ytbtravel.com/AACPM) that will provide an alternative source for members and supporters to book their business and personal travel…travel you are most likely already booking online. Since the new site’s booking engine is powered by Travelocity, members will be receiving the most competitive rates, as well as a travel professional in the association program to help plan group trips for 20 people or more, including cruises and special excursions. Best of all, the American Academy of Certified Public Managers® will receive a substantial share of all travel commissions generated from the website, an ongoing source of funding. And, it only requires a simple shift of activity.

The website is available now. Please take the time to visit http://ytbtravel.com/AACPM today! Remember, Your Travel Benefits the AACPM!
