CT Partners members have been going above and beyond to support clients who have been impacted by the
situation in the Middle East.
With carriers rerouting or suspending services amid escalating conflict in the Middle East, Australian travellers are turning to CT Partners’ network of independent corporate travel management firms and premium leisure agencies for real-time support.
“Events like this remind us why human expertise matters,” said Matt Masson, CEO of CT Partners. “Our 33 member agencies combine globally negotiated buying power with deeply personal service. When borders close or airspace is restricted, they don’t just re-issue tickets – they calm nerves, find safe alternatives and stay in touch until every
traveller is home.”
Business Travel Associates (BTA), a CT Partners member has spent the past week re-routing corporate groups away from high-risk hubs, organising early departures and pushing live updates to travellers’ phones.
“As a boutique operator with deep regional knowledge and local presence, we’re able to offer our clients immediate and personalised support when global events unfold,” said Yekta Gokyildirim, Managing Director of BTA. “Our role goes beyond logistics-we provide reassurance, trusted information and practical solutions when our clients need them most.”
In this environment, the decision to partner with a trusted, professional travel advisor is more important than ever. As this month’s disruptions unfolded, CT Partners’ members were on the front foot, rerouting travellers, negotiating with airlines, and solving problems.
CT Partners, Australia’s leading network of independent corporate travel management firms and premium leisure agencies, represents the country’s most capable and connected travel companies, trusted by businesses and high value travellers to keep them informed, supported, and mobile when plans change.
CT Partners’ members are proactive, responsive and trusted and ready to act at a moment’s notice.
With more than $2 billion in annual transaction value and over 1.4 million travellers supported each year, the CT Partners network delivers what today’s travel landscape demands: foresight, experience, and 24/7 service when it matters most.
