Chris Hakim

About

Chris Hakim is a visionary founder and the CEO of Wingbuddy, a trailblazing travel company redefining the art of vacation planning. Chris' journey began in 2012, when he sensed a gap in the market while working as VP Marketing and Business Development in his family's traditional brick-and-mortar travel agency - Voyages Routair. Driven by a passion for efficiency, he launched Wingbuddy to reinvent the way tour and cruise packages are offered for both simple getaways and elaborate journeys, inspiring North Americans to maximize their travel experiences with Wingbuddy’s turnkey global options. Chris believes that the sheer size of the travel industry and increased fragmentation within the industry provides a lot of opportunities to optimize and improve the experience for travellers both at the booking stage and at the destination. Hence, he is dedicated to building and promoting rich and hassle-free packages to worldwide destinations instead of being on the commodity side selling flights
