Meet the aviation A-Team

Meet the aviation A-Team

The Lufthansa Group, Lufthansa, SWISS and Austrian Airlines, together make one of the world’s biggest airline groups, operating thousands of flights across the globe daily.

The Aussie sales operations for the Group are run by just three superstars.

The job of this super sales team is to know everything about the airline group, and to answer every question (or in some cases, help fix up a quote) travel agents may have.
