SYDNEY, June 4, 2009: Luxury Travel Magazine is establishing an Advisory Board to be chaired by former Tourism New South Wales chief executive John O’Neill.
Mr David Hickie, the owner of Gadfly Media (publisher of Luxury Travel), said the aim of the Advisory Board was to ensure the magazine was as informed as possible about the key strategic and commercial objectives of major luxury travel industry participants.
He said the Board would also help the magazine let senior executives in the travel industry know about the preferences and expectations of the magazine’s 100,000 plus readers.
Mr Hickie, a former editor-in-chief of The Sydney Morning Herald said the initiative coincided with Luxury Travel magazine’s 10th anniversary and its strongest ever quarter of revenue, achieved in spite of the global financial crisis.
He said Mr O’Neill would establish a Board and host meetings and briefings for key executives in the luxury travel market.
As chief executive of Tourism New South Wales, Mr O’Neill was responsible for five years for marketing Sydney and New South Wales within Australia and around the world.
Mr O’Neill was previously Ticketing Communications Manager for the Sydney 2000 Olympic Games and an award-winning newspaper, magazine and television journalist. He is also the chairman of digital marketing agency Komosion.
