All of these outfits will issue you "their" company travel agent ID card. They promise you the IATAN card after you show monthly bookings that exceed roughly $6000.

Most airlines require the IATAN card to get the discounts. The best travel agent deals require the travel agents manager to produce a list of the IATAN credited agents on company letterhead sent to the supplier in order to secure the trip.
