Aoife Gregg (United Airlines) and Blaithin O’Donnell (Air Canada) made great presentations updating all delegates on 2023, thanking all Travel Centres members for their support along with presenting exciting product updates for 2024 on their respective direct services from Ireland.

The Theme of this year’s conference was “Seeing the woods from the trees” guest speakers presentations and productive interaction with trade partners via speed dating and breakout sessions certainly went a long way towards all delegates setting their respective business goals, objectives and ambitions for 2024 and beyond.
