OFFICIALS from Visit Seattle took the chance to meet with travel and tourism trade partners earlier this week while in Sydney.
The tourist organisation’s ceo and president Tom Norwalk said Seattle was intent on making greater waves in Australia and told Travel Daily he intended to bring a larger team back to our shores in 2018 to capitalise on Australia’s top 10 position in terms of visitor spend.
