Remember when we tempted you with a good time with the incredible Sell Your Way to the USA famil incentive? Well, we’ve got the news of which lucky agents will be heading stateside for one of five amazing fams. Read on!

Canuckiwi, American Airlines, Brand USA and their six US travel partners have revealed who has won those nine coveted spots on the Sell Your Way to the USA 2024 agent famil.

If you need a memory jog, this past February to April, you had two months to sell select US product to win American Airlines economy flights to mainland USA.

The competiton was fierce (unsurprising, it’s such a stellar fam prize), with 230 agents hoping to secure a spot on one of the five trips heading to the States between May and December this year. That’s more than double the number of participants compared to last year. Which can only mean the USA is oh-so hot right now!

American Airlines, Brand USA, Grapevine Convention & Visitors Bureau, Oklahoma Tourism, Utah Office of Tourism, Visit Anchorage, Travel Nevada and Destination DC partnered for the Sell Your Way to the USA incentive.

And the winners are…

Three lucky agents are heading to Utah on the Sell Your Way to the USA fam this year.
