Jean Newman Glock of JNG Worldwide Praised By Leading Travel Magazines

WASHINGTON, Oct. 2, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Jean Newman Glock is changing the perception of what the public should expect from a travel consultant, and the travel and tourism industries are taking notice. She was featured in the 2013 A-List of Travel Agents by Travel & Leisure last month, and on the cover of Luxury Travel Advisor Magazine this month. Travel & Leisure says, "Glock has insider clout, and maintains a little black book of door-opening contacts;" and Luxury Travel Advisor says, "Luxury travel is about exploring one's interests as exclusively and as in depth as possible. Experiential travel and insider access are all the rage now, and Jean Newman Glock has been ahead of the curve for years."

In her own words, Jean says, "My travel experience during my 17 years with the Smithsonian Institution and in the corporate world have, quite simply, introduced me to the best of the best. I have worked with the most sought-after specialists in every field, and in almost every country. These distinctive contacts allow me to open doors normally closed to the public." During her time at the Smithsonian Institution, Jean was responsible for their portfolio of international tours, which included more than 200 departures yearly, and their student travel program.

Her approach is clearly hitting a nerve with the traveling public, and in return, business is booming. To continue meeting the growing demand from clients, Debra Eliezer, former Director of World Wildlife Fund Travel, has joined Jean as Senior Vice President, making JNG Worldwide the most unique resource for expert travel information in the market today. Jean is also one of the very few travel authorities who has made digital media a centerpiece of her profile. Her posts and editorial writings have allowed her to become one of the leading voices of luxury travel on social media today.  Sharing her expertise and rare, extensive first-hand knowledge on her blog ("Simply Exceptional"), Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, Google Plus and Pinterest, she is also a featured travel blogger for the Huffington Post
