These funds will be used to provide support to LGBTQ+ entrepreneurs in emerging markets, conduct research, and offer educational opportunities to businesses. Together, we can build a more inclusive and welcoming world for all LGBTQ+ travelers. Book your cruise now and be part of this meaningful initiative. For booking questions, please email Adam Martindale with Cruise Planners: amartindale@cruiseplanners.com | The International LGBTQ+ Travel Association is the global leader in advancing LGBTQ+ travel. The association’s professional network includes more than 12,000 LGBTQ+ welcoming accommodations, destinations, service providers, travel agents, tour operators, events and travel media, and its members can be found in 80 countries. IGLTA is an equal opportunity organization and encourages applications from people regardless of their race, ethnicity, age, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, gender expression, religion, marital status, immigration status, veteran status, or disability. IGLTA has a global operations team with virtual offices in several countries. Most positions are full-time, home-based/work from anywhere, ideal for people that are comfortable working in a small staff environment and may include some travel. We currently have several positions open and are looking for qualified candidates.
| Policies and public acceptance of LGBTQ+ people vary widely from country to country and even within some countries. Laws and attitudes can impact the safety of LGBTQ+ people but they also can affect the perception of safety in destinations around the world. The reality is that LGBTQ+ people face unique travel issues in every destination — but with a little planning and awareness of where you’re visiting, you can relax and enjoy your travels. In fact, learning about the unique challenges and experiences of LGBTQ+ people within the destinations you’re visiting brings us closer together as a community and helps to build empathy for our LGBTQ+ siblings around the world.
