Thank you to our very own employees, for volunteering their time and hearts.

About us
Flight Centre Travel Group is one of the world’s largest travel companies with over 15,000 employees - what we call ‘Flighties’. With global headquarters in Brisbane, Australia, we have company owned leisure and corporate travel businesses in over 25 countries including Australia, New Zealand, the Americas, Europe, the United Kingdom, South Africa, Asia and the UAE. Our corporate travel management brand FCM also boasts a network that extends to over 100 countries through company-owned businesses and independent licensees. Together, we live and breathe our number one philosophy, our people, and turn up each day driven by our purpose to open up the world for those who want to see. Put simply, we’re a bunch of travel lovers looking for more travel lovers to join our family. Our values are simple, powerful and they shape our behaviour across our entire network of brands and businesses. We have a set of three core values (Ownership, Egalitarianism and Irreverence) that are lasting and unique to how we do things around here. They guide what our people do and drive our organisation forward. We support our people the FCTG way; with opportunities to help you thrive, connect, give, move and be rewarded. Our people have access to a suite of tangible, curated benefits to ensure holistic wellbeing – from mental and physical health to financial freedom. We are not an overnight success story. Our success happened over many years of persistence and hard work by a lot of people. We opened our first leisure travel store in Sydney, Australia in 1982 and last year celebrated the big 4-0. Turning 40 is a big deal. It is an incredible achievement and a testament to our business model. Not only this, but it means we’ve been the catalyst for millions of incredible travel memories. This milestone is celebrated by all our people globally in acknowledgement of our Australian roots and the birth of a brand that became the catalyst for all of our success and brand diversification to follow.

Travel Daily have just released their latest Special Report, this time taking a deep dive into the very latest in Travel Tech. Flight Centre Travel Group Global Chief Experience Officer John Morhous - who leads FCTG's key projects and customer-facing product solutions, like the AI Centre of Excellence - discusses the untapped opportunities in travel and experimenting with "creepy" emotional AI Agents. The FCTG AI Centre of Excellence was formed just shy of a year ago, a team that has quadrupled given the growth and demand for the group's projects. Working across a couple of functions, one being acting as a governance body for all the AI work across the group, to projects developed to automate internal admin work such as inbound enquiries. On a humorous note, John shared some interesting questions such as "Can you tell me the what the weather is in Sydney next Tuesday?" or "Can you update my profile to have a different seat assignment?". The team have built a tool that parses through the questions, then based off the weighting scale, assigns them into different areas to be serviced. They've gone through 750,000 emails that have cost hundreds of dollars in computing time, but without the AI automations it probably would have utilised six or seven full-time people! FCTG's AI Centre of Excellence is excited to see how much AI can continue to untap opportunities to drive productivity and efficiency models. 💪 Read the full Travel Daily Travel Tech Special Report here https://lnkd.in/gyn8X45f #traveltech #tech #traveltechnology #AI #artificialintelligence #AIautomation
