Behind the Scenes with Travel Daily

Travel Daily was started in 1994 by Mike Heard, who wanted to create the most reliable and up to date travel news publication available. Distributed by fax every day, TD was a hit, and quickly gained a reputation for being first with the news. Looking to retire, Mike turned to his friends Bruce and Jenny to continue to grow his legacy into something great. From that one man operation, Travel Daily has grown into what it is today, with a small team of dedicated professionals, ensuring that we are first with the news.

Bruce and Jenny Piper both changed careers completely when they bought Travel Daily in 2004, risking it all to continue to make Travel Daily the most timely and accurate travel news publication in the market!
