ITAA welcomes new Membership Executive Patricia Grealish to the team

Patricia brings a wealth of experience to The Irish Travel Agents Association team.

The Irish Travel Agents Association (ITAA) is delighted to welcome Patricia Grealish who takes on the full-time role of Membership Executive. Patricia brings a wealth of extra resources and experience to the ITAA and joins the team following the recent retirement of Lorraine Dunne.

Patricia began her career as a reservations agent with Ryanair where she spent six years in their Dawson Street office.

She then worked for several airline consolidators before joining Neenan Travel’s Breakaway Department, where she built strong relationships with agents across the country over twenty-three years. After a brief two-year pause from the travel trade, during which she worked as a receptionist at Avondale Veterinary, Patricia is thrilled to return to her first love – the travel industry.

ITAA CEO Clare Dunne said, “We are delighted to have Patricia as part of the ITAA team. The ITAA plays a crucial role in supporting and advocating for our members, providing invaluable resources, industry insights, and a unified voice. As we continue to expand our duties and role in helping our members navigate the complexities of the travel industry, Patricia’s wisdom and experience will be invaluable assets to our team.”

Patricia looks forward to renewing friendships and acquaintances across the sector and is excited about her new role.
