Patra Budig receives ACTA/ Air Canada Leisure Travel Agent Award

Petra Buding has been a travel professional with Transat Distribution and Marlin Travel since 2006. Travelling to many destinations around the world, it was a natural fit to develop a career in the travel industry. 

Petra understands that when you make an investment in a vacation with her, you want to know what you’re getting in order to have the best experience possible. 

She puts herself in her clients’ “shoes”, so to speak, and uses her own experience and knowledge to make sure the destination and/or product is a good “fit” for what the client wants.

Petra recognizes that change is necessary to ensure being relevant in the industry. She believes in promoting herself through pro-active specialization and her specialty and now passion is Destination Weddings. Working with couples on one of the most important occasions in their lives is truly a privilege that she holds dear.  Organizational skills, attention to detail and being customer service oriented are all assets that help her to achieve success in working with Wedding Groups.  

Petra differentiates herself from the competition through personal attention and offering more than what the internet can offer. Experience, knowledge, and the need to continue to make herself better with training are key attributes to her success.  Her success has been acknowledged as Petra has been awarded Marlin Travel's Bravo Award of Excellence for 5 years.  This prestigious award recognizes her as one of the Marlin Travel's top Travel Consultants nationwide!

Many agents wait for the phone to ring. Petra, makes the phone ring.
