Vision Travel Solutions Grows in Western Canada

Vision Travel Solutions is on an acquisition streak, announcing its second acquisition in the past week.

This time, Vision Travel has grown its presence in western Canada with the acquisition of downtown Vancouver-based WD World Travel from principals Robert Durant and Greg Wittig.

WD World Travel was established by Durant and Wittig 25 years ago as an international corporate travel management agency, but now also operates Canada Travels, a website offering travel deals for Canadians.

The company will now operate as the Vancouver location of Vision Travel, with Robert Durant remaining and taking the role of managing director, Western Canada, for Vision Travel.

"We knew that Vision would be a great fit with their continued growth and global strategy,” said Durant. “Their personalized approach to travel is right in line with how we have done business for many years.”

 “We are excited to welcome the entire team at WD World Travel into our family.” said Brian Robertson, president of Vision Travel Solutions, Canada West. “This acquisition will solidify our presence in the BC market and specifically in Vancouver.”

Last week, Robertson announced that Vision Travel was acquiring Toronto-based Travel Sensations Downtown.
