Tourism Leaders Fly The Flag For The Whitsundays

Earlier this month, Tourism Whitsundays, along with 14 of its members, took The Whitsundays East Coast Roadshow to Brisbane, Sydney and Melbourne, connecting with the travel agents and trade partners who promote and sell Whitsundays holidays to travellers across the country. 

‍

In Brisbane, operators gathered at Lina Rooftop to share what's new and what's next for the region. Sydney's Ivy Sunroom followed, before the roadshow wrapped up at The Boatbuilders Yard in South Wharf, Melbourne. 

‍

Tourism Whitsundays said that at each stop, members were outstanding ambassadors for the destination, bringing genuine enthusiasm for The Whitsundays and showcasing the strength and diversity of their products.  

‍

Through face-to-face conversations and product updates, almost 300 agents left the events better equipped to recommend The Whitsundays with confidence. 

‍

Alongside the networking events, the group also met with Tourism Australia and Tourism and Events Queensland to share the latest developments across the region and updates on attending operators' products.  

‍

“Keeping our state and national tourism bodies informed ensures The Whitsundays continues to be well represented in key domestic and international markets.”

‍

“A huge thank you to sponsors Palm Bay Resort, Hamilton Island and Whitsunday Coast Airport for making it all possible. And to our 14 members who made the trip south and represented our region so well: thank you for making the week such a great one.”
