Over 300 Flight Centre staff came from throughout Brisbane to enjoy a little Aloha Spirit.  The companies Lei’d most of the staff, installed a pop-up Mai Tai Bar, Ukulele player, Hawaiian food feast and had a ton of Hawaiian shirts on-hand – all on the travel group’s sky high viewing deck at FCL’s new Brisbane headquarters.

There was also a super fun competition where nearly 200 Flight Centre staff  tried to guess the weight of two 32 kilo bags (the specific weight showing off Hawaiian’s industry-leading 64 kilo free checked baggage allowance).

The closest guess was from Flight Centre team members Kristy Gallaway and Patricia Cunneen – who both won enough Hawaiian Airlines miles for two tickets to Hawaii!
