Halina enjoys her fifth year at the helm of Greece and Mediterranean Travel Centre
Greece and Mediterranean Travel Centre’s CEO Halina Hussein [pictured] is well 
prepared for her fifth year as Managing Director of the Mediterranean specialist operator, with her opening salvo in 2007 taking the company to the market with a record five brochures encompassing an impressive range of product in ten Mediterranean destinations, (Spain, Portugal, Italy, Croatia, Greece, Cyprus Turkey, Egypt, Israel and Jordan)plus stopover and tour packages in the Gulf destinations of Bahrain and Dubai.
Since Halina established Greece and Mediterranean Travel Centre as a one woman wholesale operation in early 2003 the company has grown in each successive year and she now employs a small team of reservation consultants, a Marketing Manager and a Sales Representative operating out of the office in the inner city Sydney suburb of Alexandria.
Halina’s assessment of her company’s growth is modest but the fact is, Greece and Mediterranean Travel Centre has rapidly emerged as one of Australia’s leading Mediterranean travel specialists.
Halina is also an active member of the Eastern Mediterranean Tourism Association which enabled her to showcase the company to thousands of Australian travel agents and she has raised the company’s profile in both the trade and the general media.
In 2004 and 2006 she organised the hosting of crews from Network 9’s Getaway in Greece which has greatly enhanced the national profile of the company and its products.
Halina’s approach to her product is meticulous, she writes the bulk of the brochures herself and its a running gag in the office that she has tested the bed springs in almost every hotel featured in the company’s major destinations of Greece, Turkey and Egypt.
Halina also establishes personal contact with all ground operators and hoteliers and inspects as much product as is possible for one person, with Halina committed to marketing product and land operators she trusts which in turn gives her confidence to market it to the Australian public and travel agents.
