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 we're now in our 40s. Turning 40 was 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.

Ever wondered what it takes for a Recruiter to completely stop in their tracks upon receiving a job application? 🛑 🤩 Well, recruiter Ginny Acutt-Hayward had that very moment when she came across an application from Christine Lorren for a Travel Consultant role within Flight Centre Brand. Christine had been job hunting for a few weeks, sending out polished cover letters, with no luck. Determined to stand out, she decided to take a fresh approach to her cover letter, be brave and bold, writing "Let’s see if this can make you travel into my world. Here is a bit of my story." Christine shared her life's journey, her career adventures, and her true self—all from the heart ❤️. Her story showcased her values, passion, creativity, and resilience. Christine’s positivity literally leaped off the pages! Fast forward a year, and Ginny received a heartfelt message from Christine (read it below, in images) Christine, you are a Star! ⭐ Thank you for bringing your authentic self to Flight Centre Travel Group. You’re a shining example of a “Flightie” and we are so proud of you and your achievements. Congratulations on being bestowed a golden ticket to the biggest Celebration of the Year - Global Ball! 💃 #SuccessStory #CareerJourney #Inspiration #RewardandRecognition #Recruitment See yourself in an organisation that welcomes the brave and bold?

Today is International Women's Day, and the theme for 2025 is #AccelerateAction. Together, let's break down barriers and biases to create a more balanced world, now and for future generations. 💜 As we celebrate IWD, we are proud to share that our recent Great Places to Work survey indicated that globally, 89% of male and female Flighties agree that 'People here are treated fairly regardless of their gender.' This speaks volumes about our culture at Flight Centre Travel Group. However, there's always room to grow. 🌱 Let's use this momentum to accelerate our efforts and commitment to making even greater strides toward gender equality.

#IWD2025 Almost a century since Australia’s first International Women’s Day was held in Sydney in 1928, we’re taking a moment to reflect on what it really means to us. 💜 International Women's Day is always such a special time here at Flight Centre Travel Group - we are proudly over 70% female, and this is something we like to celebrate! 🙌 FCTG's workplace is not short on supply of incredibly inspiring women who can model the way as they lead and mentor. We asked a handful of incredible women at Flight Centre Travel Group, Lauren Farr Rachel Alaimoana Daniela Salvestro Laura Todhunter Haley Judge Daniela Horvath Meaghan Finnis Casey Reid Hannah Asbury Meagan Bebendorf Jennifer Holder Cristina Cali Susan W. to share an important lesson a woman has taught them. 🫶 We’d love to hear from you! What’s an important lesson a woman has taught you? Sam van Gool Shanyll Haywood Allisa O'Connell #InternationalWomensDay #IWD2025 #WomenEmpowerment #Equality
