Meet the team

Our specialists are at the heart of Travel Industry Club. They have all travelled extensively and have many years combined experience.

Sue Francis

Director

I began my travel career in Qantas as a flight hostess, followed by a special promotions position, then on to sales and marketing. I then ventured out into my own GSA company representing airlines, hotels and destinations. Travel is my passion and through my experience & contacts I saw opportunities to bring travel discounts to my colleagues and so founded Interline Reservation Service, then a name change to Travel Industry Club. I am proud of TIC’s achievements and enjoy the fun of working with exciting industry company partners whilst fulfilling our members dreams at affordable prices. I am very grateful to our loyal membership and also very grateful to have such a dedicated, loyal and professional team.

Meagan Crighton

Travel Consultant

I have three years experience working with the Travel Industry Club, specialising in cruise travel. In this role, I have developed strong knowledge of cruise itineraries, destinations, and customer needs, while consistently delivering high-quality service and tailored travel experiences.
My background also includes serving as a company director at Babahlu Kids Fashion, along with experience in property management, which has strengthened my communication, organisation, and client-focused skills.
Having travelled extensively to destinations such as South East Asia, New Zealand, the UK, Europe, Mexico, and major U.S Cities, I bring genuine global insight and a strong passion for travel to my work within the cruise industry.

Edith Svehla

Senior Travel Consultant

I started working in Travel around 23 years ago selling retail travel before quickly transferring to the South American Department for Adventure Associates. South America became a passion I still have today, and I learnt so much while working there. I went on to specialise in selling Cruising while working at another wholesaler and also had a short stint at working at the airport before coming to work at TIC. I love my job here at TIC, as I can bring together my Cruise and South American Knowledge as well as my passion for finding the right holiday for our lovely clients.

Alton Francis

Marketing Manager & Director

I am the Marketing Manager, a Director of TIC and have been involved for 10 years. I also have a strong hospitality background & hence high customer service levels. I produce the weekly Newsletter and am involved in membership and various other administration activities. The success of Travel Industry Club is exciting and I love being part of the team.
