The long awaited National Travel Industry Awards (NTIAs) are almost here, and Australia’s travel professionals, businesses and suppliers are getting ready to celebrate the industry’s night of nights at Sydney’s International Convention Centre.
Thanks to the generous support of Major Sponsor Singapore Airlines, the night will recognise the outstanding support travel professionals have provided over the past two years, including supporting access to essential travel, keeping loved ones connected and reuniting families.
The NTIA 2022 event at Sydney’s International Convention & Exhibition Centre will also provide the industry with the opportunity to celebrate its ongoing recovery ahead of the peak end of year holiday period.
Quotes from Australian Federation of Travel Agents (AFTA) CEO Dean Long (who is available for interview)
“The NTIA 2022 event has been months in the making, and we can’t wait to see everyone this Saturday as we meet to celebrate excellence, survival, and the generosity and passion that define Australia’s travel professionals.”
“Given the significant financial challenges that every single one of us has faced over the past two years, the reality is this event simply wouldn’t have happened without the generous contributions from our supporters like Major Sponsor Singapore Airlines.”
“We’re particularly grateful to Singapore Airlines for their support of travel’s night of nights. The travel industry is built on nurturing and reinforcing relationships, and the value of their contribution, and those of every single one of our 23 generous sponsors, isn’t going unrecognised by AFTA or any of our members.”
“On behalf of AFTA and our members, I sincerely thank Singapore Airlines for their investment in supporting travel professionals. I can’t wait for everyone to enjoy the hard work we’ve put in to making this Saturday evening a night to remember.”
Quotes from Singapore Airlines General Manager Agency Sales Greg McJarrow
“After such a tumultuous few years it is exciting to be just a few days away from coming together as an industry to celebrate the hard work, resilience and achievements of so many.”
“Since starting operations to Australia in 1967 we have received tremendous support from the Travel Agent community and wider Travel Trade in Australia. Supporting the NTIAs as Major Sponsor is one of the ways we can show our gratitude, to say thank you and importantly, to help celebrate the outstanding efforts of an industry that’s faced considerable challenge.”
“Our Congratulations to all nominees and finalists. We wish everyone a fantastic night and we look forward to celebrating with you on Saturday.”
