United Airlines partners with GlobalTT-Guyana to provide more services to Guyanese travellers
United Airlines and Global Tours and Travel (GlobalTT-Guyana) have teamed up to offer Guyanese travellers new opportunities for both business and leisure travel as a means to strengthen the Guyanese market.
United Airlines is presently operating routes to more than 210 destinations within the United States (US) and over 120 international destinations spanning all six inhabited continents.
Two officials from the airline – Country Manager, Bettina Carvajal Leon and Account Sales Manager, Cristina Del Castillo recently engaged in strategic discussions with local travel agencies, travel companies, and major clients.
As a result of these consultations, the airline has entered into an exciting partnership with GlobalTT-Guyana which will provide Guyanese travelers with an enhanced booking experience, offering greater flexibility, seamless access to global destinations, and the ability to enjoy the benefits of United’s Star Alliance membership, which includes earning and redeeming miles with partner airlines such as Air Canada, Copa Airlines, and Lufthansa.
Starting in 2025, GlobalTT-Guyana, in collaboration with United Airlines and other travel partners, will offer comprehensive travel packages tailored to meet the diverse needs of both business and leisure travelers.
These packages will include end-to-end solutions for vacations and business trips to destinations across the US, Canada, Mexico, the Caribbean, Central America, South America, Europe, Asia, Australia, New Zealand, and the Middle East.
GlobalTT-Guyana which also has an alliance with Carnival Cruise Lines, proposes to use the United Airlines flights to Houston to seamlessly transport Guyanese travelers who plan to set sail out of Galveston, Texas.
Chief Executive Officer of GlobalTT-Guyana, Waynewright Orderson, expressed his company’s unwavering commitment to delivering exceptional travel experiences for its customers. From personalised trip planning to on-the-ground support during vacations or business trips—and even post-travel assistance—GlobalTT-Guyana is dedicated to ensuring that every journey for Guyanese travelers is memorable and worry-free.
He stated that the partnership is a pivotal milestone in expanding travel opportunities for Guyanese citizens and emphasised that it will further connect Guyana to the world, creating pathways to unforgettable experiences and fostering deeper global connections.
Over the past few years, Guyana has witnessed remarkable economic growth, leading to a rise in the standard of living across various sectors. With increasing disposable incomes fueled by higher salaries, reduced taxes, and greater employment opportunities, more Guyanese are now able to indulge in travel and leisure activities.
“We believe travel is a force for good, and should be enabled, encouraged and championed, and is committed to using their travel partner’s tools and platforms to power a more inclusive travel industry for Guyana,” the CEO added.
