Have you started packing yet? Psht, of course you haven’t! You work in the travel industry. You’ll probably just throw a few things into a suitcase an hour before bed the night before the conference.
Packing may come last, but I bet you’re definitely hyped for Helloworld Travel’s Frontliners gathering, which is only three days out from kicking off at Hobart’s Wrest Point Hotel Casino.
According to the agency group, a record number of 500 people are expected to attend this year’s three-day event, all of whom are keen and ready to discuss this year’s theme – ‘You are the Difference’.
As with any travel agency conference, attendees will have the chance to meet some of their distant colleague, gain some valuable intel and build on their partner relations.
But more importantly, Helloworld Travel will be happy to know that between 23 and 26 November, they’ll also…
Be spoiled with the finest foods & drinks
Do a quick Google search of ‘Hobart’ and you’ll find it’s famed for its foods and cuisines, especially its high quality cheeses and wines!
Make sure you’re ready to indulge the moment you arrive because the deliciousness will kick off during the Welcoming Function hosted by Intrepid Travel.
*Drools*.
See the best of Tassie
If you were lucky enough to get some free time before or after the conference, you may find yourself in the midst of Tasmania’s highlights during a pre or post-famil.
KarryOn was told consultants on pre-famil will “explore all over the Apple Isle”, while others have taken advantage of special offers from local tour operators and suppliers.

You don’t need to have visited Tasmania to know every inch of her is pretty and lucky Helloworld Travel Frontliners will get a taste of her stunning scenery during evening functions such as the casual dinner at Glen Albyn Estate.
Learn business from the best in business
This years forum will see Kirk Peterson address the delegates, a world renowned thought leader with over 30 years’ experience in business strategy and people management, Kirk also has a history of coaching high level sporting teams to success.
And giggle along with Vince Sorrenti
We all need a comic relief during a three-day conference and this year Vince Sorrenti will be the one providing it. No pressure Vince.
Find out who the best of the best at Helloworld Travel are
Every one will look like a million dollars during the Gala Awards Dinner on the final evening, and some will feel like it, especially those who win Consultant of the Year, Top Revenue Award, Rising Star Award, Team Spirit Award, Pursuit of Knowledge Award, and Achievement Awards.
Let’s not forget, that celebrity guest
We definitely know there’ll be a well-known Australian pop singer at this year’s conference, but who? KarryOn given it a couple of guesses (some realistic, some wishful) and we can’t wait to see who it is.
KarryOn will join Travel Agents in Hobart later this week. If you spot us, be sure to say hi and pose for a quick pic!
