Company History
DG Promotions Travel Was started in 1998 on the premise that nothing beats personalized service, experience, and attention to detail. While many internet sites promote special deals, travelers are often unaware of restrictions, exceptions and fine print. Making the right choices based on price alone is not always the best course of action for travelers. DG Promotions has heard too many stories of travelers regretting that they didn’t call us first.
Debbie & Gene Fuqua identify the need for experienced agents in the Internet Age. While many agents succumb to the pressure of bargain internet sites, Debbie & Gene recognized the niche for knowledgeable, experienced travel professionals and knew that travelers appreciate the values of a full-service travel agency. Many travelers learned that they actually saved money by seeking the help of an experienced travel professional.
Debbie has been in the industry since 1974, a little over three decades. She has worked for an international airport board and a major airline, serving in many capacities. Debbie has also worked for several interline travel agencies over the years and helped one of them acquire a customer base with three major airlines.
Together they owned a cruise franchise their first year in business and learned they could best serve travelers by creating an agency on their own terms. In 2006 they became a Host Agency and now have ten independent contractors that have been trained as travel specialists to work from their home-based offices. They are determined to prove that their agency can provide better service and value than any other means of travel planning.
Repeat customers and fundraising organizations have profiled “DG Promotions Travel” as the smart choice for demanding travelers. Debbie & Gene and their travel team of agents are proud to be recognized as an industry leader.
