The 2019 National Travel Industry Awards (NTIA) have once again showcased the very best of Australia’s travel industry at a very impressive gala event at the International Convention Centre, Sydney on 20 July.

Hosted by international award winning personality and TV journalist, Anjali Rao, some 1,300 travel industry guests attended the gala from just about every sector of Australia’s travel industry to see who would be named the best in 44 award categories.
