Globus family of brands Brand Usage & Guidelines

Background—Our Commitment to our Entire Travel Agency Network
These guidelines have been established to clarify the branding relationship between the Globus family of brands and our Travel Agency partner brands. With a vast network of over 12,000 travel agencies, and the immense volume of brand-related information available online and through marketing materials, it benefits our entire network to have a clear understanding of agent and supplier marks, and how the two work to complement one-another.

These guidelines have been formulated to help ensure balance in the retail distribution channel—that no one travel agency gains an upper hand by using Globus family of brands' intellectual property to create the impression of ownership of the brands or "official website" status.

We are happy to clarify any of these guidelines, as well as to work on a case-by-case basis with our Travel Agency partners to ensure the best representation of our brands.
