What Tangerine Travel does

Tangerine Travel Ltd. is a privately held, founder-led travel management company headquartered in Bothell, Washington, founded in 1988 by current CEO Angie Lepley. The firm operates four clearly delineated business units: a Corporate Travel Management practice serving companies of all sizes with dedicated account managers and 24/7/365 human support; a Leisure Travel practice offering personalized vacation planning; a Luxury Travel practice operated under the wholly-owned Anjilis sub-brand for high-net-worth clientele; and a Meetings & Events practice operated under the wholly-owned On The Vine sub-brand. Geography is concentrated in North America (USA), anchored in the Pacific Northwest, with Virtuoso network reach providing international destination capability.

The technology stack is multi-vendor rather than proprietary: bookings flow through SAP Concur (long-time partner), GetThere, and Tangerine ONLINE — the firm's own web-based booking tool powered by Atriis — sitting on top of Sabre and other GDS systems for inventory. Operational capabilities include the Flight Deck Web Portal for corporate reporting, TripCase integration for traveler tracking and duty-of-care, the Oversee automated rebooking engine (partnership announced April 2025), and ViewTrip for flight status. SAP Concur's Joule generative AI copilot is positioned as a forward feature across expense and meeting planning, although no proprietary models are developed in-house. The sub-brand architecture and partnership depth allow Tangerine to address corporate, leisure, luxury, and events demand through a unified operational backbone.

Tangerine's revenue model combines supplier commissions on booked air, hotel, and car inventory with recurring corporate account management fees and online booking-engine access. Distribution is direct-sales-led for corporate clients, augmented by self-serve booking via SAP Concur, GetThere, and Tangerine ONLINE, with 24/7 phone and email coverage. Customer segments span SMBs, mid-market and enterprise corporates, individual leisure travelers, HNW luxury clients, and corporate event sponsors. The company holds no disclosed outside investment, operates with founder and key employee leadership, and is PCI DSS compliant for payment-card handling. Industry recognition includes Virtuoso Best of the Best (2023) and Virgin Galactic authorized-agent status (one of 45 agencies in North America).
