About Flathead Travel
Premier Travel Planning Services
Flathead Travel Service, Inc. was established in October 1960, by Archie E. McGlenn. Archie’s wife, Dorothy, worked in the business for 20 years. Today it is owned and operated by their two daughters, Micki Nonemacher and Darcy Lard, and their granddaughter-in-law, Laci Lard.
We have seen many changes in our 63 years of service to the state of Montana and beyond. As we anticipate the next ten years and contemplate the dynamic, ever-changing travel industry, we see ourselves focusing on the details and quality we provide. Our purpose is to get people where they need to go, when they want to be there.

Our Promise
Dedicated Service
Flathead Travel Service has developed an integrated, full service approach to corporate travel management, combining expert global travel solutions with the personal touch of our highly trained and experienced travel advisors.
A devoted travel advisor is an invaluable insurance asset. We, unlike instructions on a Web page, are experts in understanding and explaining a ton of travel information and codes out there. It’s what we’ve been trained to do and what we do everyday.
With our strong portfolio of products and services, and access to our 24 hr. hotline, we position all of our resources behind you, 100%.
Quality Assurance
Quality assurance is what Flathead Travel stands for. Therefore, we will not require a contract of any length, and hold you completely harmless and free to take your business elsewhere if we fail to meet your travel needs.
We are confident in our ability and service that we feel it speaks for itself. If you choose to use our services and not completely satisfied for any reason, we will support and assist in a smooth and successful transition to the agency/avenue you chose.
Commitment
Your Flathead Travel Team is dedicated to understanding your individual needs and providing exceptional, professional, and personalized customer service saving you time and money. Instead of an impersonal voice thousands of miles away, we are your neighbors and customers. We know what you want and what you value in your travel experience.Our Locations
