About Us | Flight Centre

Who are we? Glad you asked. We’re the travel-obsessed Travel Experts. We’re here to open up the world for those who want to see. Every day, we give people all around the world the opportunity to experience something really amazing—travel! We love what we do.

Experience is everything to us. In fact, we have over 32,768 collective years experience in travel. We started doing this thing over 40 years ago in Australia and haven’t looked back since. In 1984 Flight Centre opened its doors in the UK, New Zealand in 1987, South Africa in 1994 and Canada in 1995.

Flights, stays, holidays, cruises, tours, insurance, you name it—we do it. Travel money? Yep we can help. Business travel? That’s our business too. Complex tricky group bookings for a hard to organise event? Not a drama. If it’s travel related, we are your people.

We’re the flagship brand of Flight Centre Travel Group (FCTG), an Australian born international travel company. It’s recognised as one of the top five largest travel agencies in the world today with more than 2,000 leisure, corporate and wholesale businesses in 11 countries.
