Global Travel Network (GTN) held its first conference at Rydges Rotorua late July - a step that co-founder Rob Beecher says takes the group to the ‘next level’.

Promoting its joint venture with Virgin Australia and ‘reminding the trade we are still here’ were among the business objectives of Delta Airlines’ and VA’s 4^th of July celebrations in Auckland last night.

‘The other reason was to have a good party,’ says Jacqui Brook, Delta Airlines’ sales executive in New Zealand.
