Lei Day (1 May) has come and gone but Hawai’i Tourism Oceania (HTO) is marking the Month of Lei with a month-long celebration that includes travel trade events and destination training with representatives from Maui, O’ahu and Kaua’i. Plus advisors can earn a spot on a Hawai’i famil in a new incentive!
Hawai’i Tourism Oceania’s Month of Lei kicked off in Sydney on 27 April with trade events continuing for Melbourne, Brisbane and Auckland this week.
Key representatives from the Hawaiian Islands joined HTO and agents in Australia and New Zealand for the first time in four years.
Month of Lei is a signature campaign to celebrate Hawaiian culture and the uniqueness of each Island and engage trade partners and consumers with the spirit of aloha.
HTO wants to showcase what makes each Hawaiian Island special and encourage travellers to visit all islands while respecting the ʻaina (land), kai (ocean), and kamaʻāina (locals).
A key message for HTO is the importance of mālama; to take care of the land, each other and ourselves.
In the spirit of giving back, HTO teamed up with ‘Every Little Bit Helps’ a charity providing basic toiletries to people in need and Sydney advisors generously donated toiletries and money to support the cause.
