THE travel industry is today mourning the death of Jo Gostin OAM from FBI Travel, whose career in cruise and travel spanned a momentous 53 years.

Known as the “Queen of Cruising” by her colleagues, Gostin worked at several travel firms before starting her own Melbourne agency in 1984, appropriately called “Jo Travel”.

The company successfully merged with FBI in 2001, and as well as her industry triumphs, Gostin was in 2012 honoured with a Medal of the Order of Australia for her longstanding service to the Jewish community.

“Jo was a special person who was respected by all who met her…her charm and demeanour as well as her positive attitude and sense of humour will always be remembered,” said FBI Travel’s Danny Englman, adding: “we stand here today to salute you as you set sail on this final voyage”.
