Directors Comment

On behalf of Travelogic I would like to wish you all a Merry Christmas and may 2008 be a successful year for us all.

2008 is set to see high double digit growth in selected city hotel markets across US, Europe and Asia with global airfares also set to climb.

With the Beijing Olympics, economic growth and an increasingly mobile population we are set for a busy year ahead. 

2007 has seen Travelogic open an office in Perth, launch our Eventlogic division and turn 18, thank you to all who have made this possible. 

2008 is shaping up to be another terrific year; we look forward to our ongoing development and sharing the benefits with you.
