EXHIBIT 99.1
NextTrip Announces Canadian Travel Joint Venture with The Travel Agent Next Door
Venture provides an accelerated path to Canadian travel revenues through an established partner with 1,850 agents and C$620 million in annual travel sales
Sunrise, FL – October 21, 2026 – NextTrip, Inc. (NASDAQ: NTRP) (“NextTrip,” the “Company,” “we,” “our,” or “us”), a technology-forward travel and media company defining the intersection of media, travel, and the creator economy, today announced a joint venture agreement with The Travel Agent Next Door Inc. (TTAND), an established Canadian travel agency network with 1,850 agents generating C$620 million in annual travel sales. The venture will connect Canadian viewers of JOURNY TV with travel planning, booking and fulfillment through a dedicated JOURNYGO Travel offering, providing NextTrip with an accelerated path to generating travel revenues in the Canadian market.
The agreement combines NextTrip’s content-to-commerce capabilities with TTAND’s established Canadian travel infrastructure. NextTrip will generate travel inquiries through its streaming media and related marketing channels, while TTAND will provide a dedicated team of travel advisors, supplier access, booking services and end-to-end fulfillment. By leveraging these existing capabilities, NextTrip expects to accelerate its Canadian commercial rollout and shorten the path from viewer engagement to commission-generating travel bookings.
With travel agents in every Canadian province, TTAND’s network enables consumers to receive personalized service from local advisors operating Canadian-owned businesses. This approach connects JOURNY viewers with travel professionals in their communities, supporting local businesses while providing assistance throughout the planning and booking process.
“Canada is a natural market in which to extend the connection between what people watch and where they travel,” said Bill Kerby, Founder and Chief Executive Officer of NextTrip. “TTAND brings meaningful scale, with 1,850 agents and C$620 million in annual travel sales, together with the local expertise and infrastructure to serve Canadian travelers. This venture gives us a fast track to opening a new revenue channel for NextTrip in Canada. We can connect JOURNY’s travel inspiration with an established booking and fulfillment operation that supports local Canadian-owned businesses, while building additional opportunities for advertisers, sponsors and travel suppliers.”
Under the agreement, Canadian consumers responding to NextTrip campaigns will be directed to a dedicated JOURNYGO Travel website or telephone service and connected with TTAND advisors trained to support the program. TTAND will manage inquiries, bookings, invoicing, customer service and commission administration, supported by tracking and reporting tools designed to measure the journey from inquiry to completed booking. The model supports both individual travelers and groups.
NextTrip will receive a share of the booking commissions remaining after applicable advisor compensation or specified customer service costs. For NextTrip, the arrangement creates an additional potential source of travel commission income from its Canadian audience, alongside opportunities to monetize media through advertising, sponsorships and branded content. NextTrip retains ownership of the JOURNYGO Travel brand.
The collaboration also provides a framework to explore specialized JOURNY TV programming and travel offers tailored to the interests and aspirations of Canadian travelers. Potential areas include destination weddings, golf, cruise, adventure and destination-focused travel, connecting relevant content with supplier offers and advisor expertise. These initiatives are intended to generate additional travel demand and booking opportunities for both companies. Development of individual programs will depend on commercial arrangements and production plans.
Where appropriate, TTAND will facilitate introductions to its preferred travel suppliers to explore potential sponsorship, advertising and co-marketing support for NextTrip’s original productions and other media projects. These introductions are intended to align relevant supplier interests with programming opportunities that can engage Canadian travelers and connect that engagement with a supported booking process. Supplier support has not been committed under the agreement.
“Our role is to help turn travel interest into a well-serviced travel experience,” said Brad Miron, Vice President of Strategic Partnerships at The Travel Agent Next Door. “With advisors in every province, we can connect Canadian travelers with local expertise while supporting Canadian-owned businesses in their communities. By bringing together our advisor network, supplier relationships and operational capabilities with JOURNY’s content and audience, we see an opportunity to create incremental business for our advisors, supplier partners and NextTrip.”
For NextTrip, the venture advances its strategy of connecting media engagement with travel transactions through established local operators. The Canadian initiative brings together audience reach, advisor-led conversion and fulfillment, providing a foundation for travel commission income and potential supplier-supported media revenues. Launch timing and specific program offerings will be announced as implementation progresses.
