Brand USA has celebrated with 20 travel advisor winners of its Hamilton the Musical VIP experience in Sydney.
The winning agents, from Australia and New Zealand, scooped the VIP experience which included flights, accommodation, tickets to the critically acclaimed Broadway show, cocktails at Star, and a limo ride to enjoy dinner at Nola restaurant in Barangaroo.
To win, advisors had to become US experts through the newly relaunched USA Discovery Program training course that allows advisors to amplify their USA knowledge by completing badges to become a USA expert; retaining pro knowledge with content resources; sharing inspiring content with clients; and accessing specialist tools to sell even more USA.
Throughout the competition period, badges completed or retained in the USA Discovery Program earned entries into the draw to win one of 20 spots in this top agent incentive.
The Brand USA Australia team of Toni Murphy, Trade Manager; Lexie Miliatis, Trade Manager; and Elaine Patton; Trade Manager were hosts for the day.
Also joining the group was Stella Hritis, Business Development Manager NSW/ACT, Air New Zealand – with the airline being a competition partner and flying in the three winning New Zealand travel agents for the experience.
“It feels amazing to be here,” Elyse Palmer of TravelManagers Australia told Karryon on the day.
“What a great opportunity put together by Brand USA to see Hamilton and network with our suppliers and people within the industry,” said Palmer.
