Members embrace “Be the Difference” theme as Travelscene American Express continues to highlight premium customer service and innovation For 22 August, 2011: There’s been an early rush on registration for the Travelscene American Express Owners-Managers Conference being held in Singapore November 18-19 with strong Member support for the focus on going the extra mile.

The two-day conference, themed “Be the Difference”, is the culmination of a very successful year for Travelscene American Express and its Members, and comes hot on the heels of the sold-out National Consultants Conference held in Melbourne July 30 and 31..

In addition to winning the coveted NTIA Best Travel Agency Group Award, Members have also continued to shine within their communities and the industry.

“Innovation has consistently been a major element of the success of our Members,” Travelscene American Express General Manager Jacqui Timmins said.

“In coming together in Singapore, a country which is the very definition of change, our vision is to ensure that we as a business continue to stand up and stand out, and that we continue to deliver that advantage to our Members. Every opportunity we have to differentiate ourselves, every new occasion that gives us a platform to grow our business should be explored. Threats are ever present from online, other travel groups and direct to consumer bookings and so our Owners-Managers Conference is an opportunity for us to review the challenges ahead of us, to learn from each other, and from experts in other sectors, and to collectively plan our roadmap to success.”

A range of post-Conference tours are also on offer including: Travel Indochina’s Siem Reap Small Group Journey Famil; Qantas Holidays/Viva! Holidays options; an exclusive inspection of the Compagnie du Ponant’s yacht Le Diamant; Club Med Bintan Island; and Six Senses Resorts and Spas.

The conference is being hosted at the magnificent Marina Bay Sands Resort. Key sponsors include Qantas Airways, Travelscene Holidays and Singapore Tourism Board.
