“Our members and I are thrilled to welcome Mike back to Travel Tech,” stated Steve Shur, Travel Tech’s President. “With Mike’s institutional knowledge of the industry, and our interactions with the federal government, Mike’s contributions will be immediately apparent.”
Liptak will return to his previously successful role developing and championing the policy priorities of Travel Tech and its members. With a strong focus on travel, tourism, and consumer protections, he will be working with numerous coalitions and trade associations to ensure policymakers at all levels of government fully understand the importance of consumer choice, competition and the role travel intermediaries play in the travel ecosystem.

Liptak was most recently the Director of Federal Government Affairs at the now-shuttered Internet Association. Before his initial tenure at Travel Tech, he was Director of Government Affairs for the National Stone, Sand & Gravel Association. He began his time in the nation’s capital as a legislative aide to U.S. Senator Mitch McConnell (R-KY).
“I am excited to be back at Travel Tech at this important time,” stated Mike Liptak. “I remain proud to represent online travel companies as they facilitate choice, convenience and competition into the travel marketplace which benefit both consumers and travel suppliers.”
