Built by a Veteran, for the Mission

Connor Cullip founded 9 Line Agency after years of active duty service gave him an unfiltered view of the logistical challenges military personnel face when securing quality accommodations during temporary duty assignments. Navigating substandard lodging options that failed to meet the real demands of military life, he identified a gap no one was properly filling, and set out to build something fundamentally better.

The name "9 Line" is drawn from the military's 9-line MEDEVAC request, a precise, coordinated call for support when it matters most. That same ethos of rapid, reliable response defines everything 9 Line Agency does. When service members need lodging, they deserve the same level of dedication and precision that defines military operations themselves.

Today, 9 Line Agency serves military personnel across worldwide locations, managing over 45,000+ nights per year. Every property in our network is rigorously vetted for safety, comfort, and compliance, from secure locations and fully equipped kitchens to high-speed internet and flexible booking arrangements designed specifically for the pace of military travel.

As a veteran-owned small business, we operate with an intimate understanding of military culture, regulations, and expectations. We integrate seamlessly with the Defense Travel System and comply fully with Joint Travel Regulations, making the administrative process as smooth as the accommodations themselves. Wherever duty calls, we answer.
