More than 500 agents participated in the incentive over the two-month campaign with more than 300 bookings logged during the qualifying period.
Linkd Tourism, United Airlines and Brand USA have unveiled the final six winners of their Ul-TRI-mate incentive who will now enjoy a 12-day adventure across America.
“As the regional trade office for Arizona, Colorado, New York State, Seattle and Anaheim, we’re always looking for ways that our destinations can stand out in a competitive travel environment,” said Michael Cassis, Linkd Tourism Strategic Director.
“With the incredibly diverse and value-packed U.S. travel experiences on offer and our interactive activities in market, such as industry webinars and a scavenger hunt during Visit USA’s February event, the Ul-TRI-mate Fam incentive has been immensely successful.”
The fam places for top sellers went to:
# Brayden Kemble, Ignite Travel Group, Brisbane
# Hayley Lyson, italk Travel, Sydney
# Swapnil Bhate, Flight Centre, Auckland.
The other three remaining spots were awarded in April through participation in the incentive and a three-week webinar series hosted by Linkd Tourism and attended by more than 350 agents:
# Briony Thomas, Tailored Travel & Cruise, Melbourne
# Lisa Trestrail, RAA, Adelaide
# Melanie Sherry, MTA, Sydney.
“I’m especially looking forward to exploring unique offerings – from the vibrant urban atmosphere and coastal scenery of Seattle to the dramatic desert landscapes and cultural richness of Arizona,” said Melanie Sherry.
“Winning a place on this fam trip means a great deal to me, both personally and professionally. More than anything, I feel proud, grateful, and energised – a reminder of why I love what I do.”
The Ul-TRI-mate Fam itineraries will depart June 1 to destinations including Seattle, Colorado, Arizona and California.
