The business began in 1989 with a single travel agency location in Hamilton, started by Richard and Cheryl Vanderlubbe. In 1996, a website featuring reduced price last minute packages went online. In 2000, the site was revamped and in 2001 the tripcentral.ca site launched with all vacation packages from across Canada using proprietary software. The business grew, with more locations, and in 2003 the stores were re-branded tripcentral.ca. In 2005, Transat AT invested in tripcentral.ca and remains a majority shareholder along with Richard Vanderlubbe and Paul Foster.
