The “1st Look Presents – Extra Mile Club,” launch commemorates Global Travel Advisor Day through spotlighting two top travel advisors tasked with delivering a first-class luxury travel experience for the celebrity couple. Extra Mile Club centers on a competition between two luxury travel advisors, Leslie Tillem and Curtis Parris, tasked with curating a day of exclusive activities in the most dynamic of destinations. The Bachelor in Paradise alums, Ashley and Jared Haibon, will ultimately decide which advisor delivered the most epic experience and award them their future business.

"Throughout the episode, we see Leslie and Curtis put their negotiating and networking skills to the test by curating one-of-a-kind experiences for Ashley and Jared's weekend getaway in New York City,” said Marni Sabia, vice president of original content and development at LXTV Productions. “They are both at the top of their field and well-experienced handling trips for clients with extravagant budgets. Our show brings together the travel content that 1st Look is known for with an exciting mix of reality from this niche world of travel advisors."

The episode will air on 11 NBC-owned stations immediately following Saturday Night Live and is nationally syndicated, averaging over 1.3M weekly viewers. It is available overnight on NBC Network, LX News and NBC VOD, and available for streaming audiences on Peacock, The Roku Channel, Samsung TV Plus and Xumo Play.
