Golden Gate ptmAs one of Qantas Holidays’ top 60 sales consultants during the incentive period 1 September – 15 December 2015, personal travel manager Kerrin Poupos, representative for Warragul, earned a place on the prestigious mega famil to northern California.

“We are thrilled to have Kerrin win a place on the Qantas Holidays’ mega famil. With places awarded to top sales consultants it really shows the strength of TravelManagers’ sales volumes and the value home-based agencies have within the industry,” said executive general manager Michael Gazal.

Participants on the recent eight-night famil flew on the Qantas direct service from Sydney to San Francisco. The group was split into four, each enjoying a multi-itinerary famil experience. Poupos visited iconic and historical sites in Sacramento and the wine region of Napa Valley, with all groups coming together for a gala dinner in San Francisco on the final night.

“This was my first time to Sacramento and previous to my visit I had never thought of it as a destination to recommend to clients. The itinerary was organised so well by Qantas Holidays we got a great feel for this Californian’ capital city – the people, culture, sounds, smells and sights. As a result I can now provide my first hand tips and experience for places to eat, where to shop and must do activities. It’s these personal recommendations that makes all the difference,” said Poupos.

Poupos said the Napa Valley lived up to its reputation for being America’s premier food and wine destination.

“Experiencing wine tasting aboard a cable car is truly unique and was a fantastic way to explore and enjoy the wines of the region. A visit to the legendary Oxbow Public Market is also a must.”

San Francisco is famous for the Golden Gate Bridge and Poupos said the bike ride over this landmark proved to be her most memorable experience.

“The bicycle ride over the Golden Gate Bridge to Sausalito was truly spectacular. Taking time to enjoy the views and do it at your own pace made it really enjoyable – you certainly don’t need to be an experienced cyclist, anyone can do it and I highly recommend this as a must do for anyone visiting San Francisco.”

TravelManagers offer personal travel managers a dedicated educational program in conjunction with preferred trade suppliers.

“Personal travel managers have access to the broadest and most in-depth support nationwide including virtual office technology, training, marketing, fares and ticketing as well as 24/7 access to all mid and back-office processes. This type of behind the scenes central and local state-based support is crucial,” said Gazal.
