FCTG Independent advisors score a spot on mega TTC Tour Brands famil

FCTG Independent announced that three of its independent travel consultants have been awarded spots on the FCTG exclusive famil with The Travel Corporation Tour Brands.

The incentive was made exclusively for Flight Centre Travel Group, including FCTG Independent, Flight Centre, and Travel Associates. The program ran from March to April and was designed to encourage agents in the FCTG Independent network to sell products from the TTC Tour Brands.

The incentive was met with overwhelming enthusiasm from the network’s 400+ independent agents and agencies.

FCTG Independent is comprised of Travel Partners branded and affiliate agencies, Travel Associates at Home, Travel Associates Franchise and Flight Centre Independent.

To incentivise FCTG’s independent network, TTC offered a 13-day tour to the three top sellers of The Travel Corporation product. FCTG Independent collaborates with its partners to develop incentives that enable agents to connect with suppliers, enhance their income, and gain hands-on experience. By doing so, they can improve their ability to serve their clients better in the future.

Bradley Rowland of HBA Travel, Teresa Petrocco of Travel Partners Box Hill, and Briony Thomas of Tailored Travel & Cruise have secured a place on the 13-day TTC tour through France and Spain, which will take place in August. These three consultants were recognised as the top three sellers between 1 March and 30 April 2023.

“I’ve always been a big supporter of The Travel Corporation. I’ve been lucky enough to travel with Insight, Trafalgar, and Contiki so I’ve experienced the product and understand the amazing experiences and value they offer clients,” said Briony Thomas, Tailored Travel & Cruise.

“I have been blown away by the level of support available for Travel Partners, whether it’s assistance with ticketing, reissues, or information on COVID-19 travel restrictions, there is a system for everything.”

The Travel Corporation famil will take the winners through France and Spain, allowing them to experience the rich culture, history, and cuisine of these two magnificent countries. With an itinerary that includes visits to iconic landmarks such as the Eiffel Tower and the Sagrada Familia, this is an opportunity of a lifetime.

“We are thrilled to see our independent travel consultants engaging so well with the incentives we are providing,” said Nick Queale, AU General Manager, FCTG Independent.

“The network gets the opportunity to receive exclusive rewards, suppliers benefit from increased sales, and clients have the chance to enjoy remarkable travel experiences.”
