A gala Performance. Cinderella went to the ball with Prince Charming.
The long awaited 2023 ITIA Awards evening took place in the iconic Mansion House on 26 January where the night exploded with excitement. The travel industry was ready to party! The atmosphere was electric and the mood euphoric. Glittering table settings, romantic candlelight and shimmering chandeliers set the scene for a night to remember. Pat Dawson (ITAA CEO) and the tireless Jean and Lorraine, Kathryn and Laura (Limelight Communications), Eoghan Corry (marvellous MC for the evening) and Paul Hackett (ITAA President) all played their part to ensure a fantastic night of revelry for the travel agents, tour operators, airlines, cruise specialists and suppliers who jammed the room. Holiday World, where Maria, Shane, Maureen and Edmund and Paulette bring the world to our doorstep, was starting the following morning but did not deter travel personnel from having a wonderful evening. Love for travel was in the air and it was good to be back!
