Luxury travel company founder expands team
The founder of luxury travel company, Seventy Ten Travel, has brought in two former colleagues to help him run the business.
Ed Burke, who launched the upmarket tour operator, travel agency and concierge service last year, will be joined by Ed Coltart from Kirker Holidays and Rosie Kennedy from Caribtours, who will both become partners in the business.
All three previously worked together at Kirker Holidays.
Coltart was previously senior executive contract and reservations at Kirker. As a frequent European traveller and a wheelchair user since 2005, he will help provide clients with the most up-to-date insider knowledge and advice regarding reduced mobility travel.
Meanwhile Kennedy, formerly a private sales manager at Caribtours, brings ‘extensive knowledge and expert advice relating to Asia, Australia, the Indian Ocean and South Pacific’.
She is also qualified to provide specialist advice on scuba diving destinations, having trained and worked as a Divemaster while living in Southeast Asia.
