Primmer and Wallace’s Ascend Travel Group announces first client.
UK-based escorted touring operator Titan Travel has this morning launched into Australia in partnership with the Ascend Travel Group recently formed by former Helloworld Travel Limited executives Julie Primmer and Lynda Wallace.
Titan Travel is part of the Saga Travel Group, led by CEO John Constable who noted that “Australia boasts a strong retail travel market where travel agents are highly considered and valued for their expertise”.
“As the leading escorted tour operator of choice for UK travel agents, it makes a natural market for Titan to expand into,” he said.
Titan will offer a new dedicated brochure featuring over 100 itineraries to destinations including Asia, North America, Europe and Africa, and will enable travel agents across Australia to package a Titan escorted tour alongside their own travel product and flights as part of a tailor-made holiday.
Launch activity will include an upcoming national roadshow and the establishment of a dedicated reservations team and agent portal for the local market.
