Hear what our clients say about us:
I have had the pleasure of working with John at the VIP desk for a couple of weeks now. My boss, who travels extensively and is constantly changing flights, requires a lot of attention. John has consistently shown that he is knowledgeable about the travel industry, professional, and courteous. I feel comfortable knowing that the travel arrangements I request from John are handled quickly and accurately.

I’m grateful to have all of the staff at Ovation available to assist me. One of the attorneys I work with travels frequently, has complicated requests, and changes his itinerary often, after everything is in place. I am grateful Jason and the Ovation staff are available to handle these travel requests. Thank you!

I just wanted to let you know that my travel consultant’s help last week has made this relationship worth its weight in gold, silver and any other precious metal you want to list. Diamonds, too! She is amazing! I really felt like I had a guardian angel looking after me.
— Diane S.
Executive Assistant to the CEO

Paulette was extremely helpful and was able to address any questions that I had. I don’t often use travel agencies because too often the service is poor. Ovation Travel is very different, their knowledgeable AND courteous consultants make all the difference.

Harry saved the day for me: My boss missed his flight, and due to inclement weather, all flights heading east were completely sold out. Harry managed to find a connection that would allow my boss to arrive at his destination in a timely manner AND satisfied all of his seating preferences. Harry is a fantastic agent who always has his clients’ best interests in mind.

Nandita is the ultimate professional. On Friday, Nandita went above and beyond the call of duty. She stayed late, called me numerous times, then sent an email explaining all of her efforts to secure the upgrades requested by [a traveler] at the end of the work day. Additionally, on Monday, when I arrived at work, there was another email from Nandita regarding the upgrades. Nandita is ALWAYS professional, pleasant, and knowledgeable.

Jay was an absolute star and provided us unbelievable service. My colleague and I were stuck in NY due to the volcano (we are the CEO and CFO of a property investment & development company). Jay is based at the architects we use, who suggested we speak to Jay to find a way out. I have no idea how Jay did it, but he found seats and options that no one else could. He even took out 3 hours of his Saturday afternoon to help us. Without him, I suspect we would still be stuck in NY.
— Soumen D.

We never cease to be impressed and pleased with Cindy’s magic abilities! THANK YOU, CINDY, for everything you do!

I was stuck in a meeting when it became apparent that the meeting would end much earlier than I had thought. I emailed asking for help in getting on an earlier flight and Britt took care of it immediately. I got home to my family and avoided another day on the road. I was very grateful for his quick response and the terrific outcome.

— Jim R.

I wish you gave higher numbers than a ‘10,’ as Debbie is a stellar, remarkable, and tireless travel agent to work with. Whether it is on a $20,000+ business reservation, or a $1,000 personal trip, Debbie gives her all to find the best value and arrangements for the client. She is always a delight and pleasure to work with.
— Ellin J.

Once again I had to call Dale on a weekend when my boss wanted to change his plans. As usual, Dale was upbeat, cheerful and couldn’t be more helpful and pleasant to work with. He even got the hotel to waive the cancellation fee! Outstanding job!
— Wilma M.

I was stuck at JFK after two cancelled flights from Europe and many calls with the airlines that resulted in an unworkable solution. After Ben assisted me, we were able to secure seats on a flight that evening and get home. He was very professional, and worked very diligently (including making several conference calls and patiently working with the airline) to find a solution. He should be commended and rewarded for his efforts.

Jason went above and beyond working with my secretary to accommodate my travel requests. He was friendly, knowledgeable, and extremely helpful. I’ve previously been skeptical of working with travel agencies, but after working with Jason, I see the ‘value added’ from using a travel agency, and will try to work through Ovation more in the future.
— Ross B.

Kelli provides great service for me in arranging travel for my boss.
