THE BASICS First opened in 1947 Allways Travel is one of Australia's oldest existing IATA licensed Travel Companies. Allways Travel has only had two Managers in over fifty years and the current managing Director - Dennis Weatherall - has owned the company since the early 1980's during its days as part of Tourworld International. Today Allways continues under Dennis's management , retaining a small corporate/retail side but focusing on boutique wholesale of specialist destinations which include China, Vietnam, Argentina, Chile, Libya, Egypt, Turkey and many more. Allways Travel is not your general "stock and station" wholesaler but a boutique wholesaler that specialises in both FIT (Free Individual) and GIT (Group Individual Travel) Travel arrangements. WHY FIT & GIT? The fact is that FIT allows us the flexibility to accommodate any client or agent who comes to us. Whether they just want 2 nights’ accommodation in Yangon, a simple 6 day itinerary through Cambodia or a complex trip over several weeks with all inclusions across China, Uzbekistan, Kazakhstan, Turkmenistan and Kyrgyzstan. Not only does it allow us the opportunity to provide the travel requirements the client seeks but, through our partnership network, we are able to offer it on a basis where it is similar in cost and extremely competitive in the Australian Market. FIT Touring also allows us to utalise whatever time the client has available - not whatever time we can fit them on a preset tour. This means that if the client wants to travel during a period when there is not normally much travel to that destination, they can go there! This also means that if they wish to travel to say Poland or the Ukraine during their winter when the snow lays thick & most companies don’t operate for a few months, then we can provide for them. We sell FIT because FIT allows us to provide exactly what the client wants, when the client wants it, and at a rate that is competitive.
