The global pandemic has thrown the travel industry into disarray, but Lorraine Simpson is still on top, growing strong, and thrilled to make a special announcement today that scripts a whole new chapter in her career.
You see, the popular travel guru is saying “Bon Voyage” to her life as a travel agent and she will now move into the official role as a travel personality.
She is the Cityline TV Travel Expert and is the ‘go-to’ travel source for tons of media outlets across Canada, the United States, and beyond.
Since COVID-19 shut down the world, Simpson stepped up to the plate and became the voice of reason in our new era of travel, and her tireless efforts paid off. Scores of airlines, tourism groups, travel associations, and agents here at home and abroad reached out and asked for her help.

“Since the pandemic hit, I embraced all the changes and challenges and quickly reinvented myself, and this has allowed me to move into a media role both locally and internationally. Change is in the air, and I am thrilled – and a bit scared – to ‘travel’ in a new direction where I will grow as a media personality, TV show host, business consultant, keynote speaker, and public relations expert. These are exciting times and I am all set to take-off on a new flight path.”
