Skål International Australia Skål International promoting Global Tourism and Friendship and doing 'Business Amongst Friends'

Skål is a professional organisation of tourism leaders around the world, promoting global tourism and friendship. It is the only international group uniting all branches of the travel and tourism industry. Its members, the industry’s managers and executives, meet at local, national, regional and international levels to discuss and pursue topics of common interest. The first Club was founded in 193

2 in Paris by travel managers, following an educational tour of Scandinavia. The idea of international goodwill and friendship grew and, in 1934, the “Association Internationale des Skål Clubs” was formed with Florimond Volckaert as its first President, who is considered the “Father of Skål”. Skål International today has approximately 14,000 members in 360 Clubs throughout 84 nations. Most activities occur at local level, moving up through National Committees, under the umbrella of Skål International, headquartered at the General Secretariat in Torremolinos, Spain. Skål International is governed by an Executive Committee of six members, elected by delegates to an annual General Assembly, held during the World Congress, hosted by a different country each year. This allows members first-hand observation of the travel and tourism potential around the world.

Australian Skålleagues: Are you planning to attend the 2025 Skål International World Congress in Cusco, Peru?
Did you know that Qantas currently has great fares on sale in their Red Tail Sale, like:
✈️ Sydney - Cusco return economy from $3448pp / Business from $6010pp
✈️ Melbourne - Lima return economy from $3200pp / Business from $6677
✈️ Brisbane - Lima return economy from $3139pp / Business from $6131pp
✈️ Perth - Lima return economy from $3330pp / Business from $6373pp
*Note for the Lima fares above, you do need to add fares Lima to Cusco to these, but these are current sale fares to Lima for around the dates of the Congress, mostly on reasonably direct routings - if you look around at other dates pre & post Congress or with longer layovers, you may find even lower fares. If you are not wanting to stop in Lima and use one of the Congress pre/post packages, you might be better booking directly through to Cusco. The fares are subject to availability on your chosen flights, but the above are all fare quotes gained through the Qantas website on 4 Feb, 2025.

OR, if you are thinking of touring in South America pre and post Congress, you might take advantage of fares like:
✈️ Sydney - Santiago return economy from $2048pp / Business from $5648pp.
Same as above, these were fares quoted through the Qantas website on 4 Feb, 2025.

There are many options to choose from, depending on your plans. The sale ends on 10 Feb, but these fares will sell out quickly, so check it out or call one of your Skålleagues who is a travel agent to help you with your booking (and if you don’t know one, get on the Skål database - it’s made for ). Our friends from Skål International Cusco would love to see you in their beautiful city from 25-30 September, 2025! 🇵🇪

*Note - in image below, storm clouds are for atmosphere only, Skål Cusco has guaranteed fine weather for the Congress... right??? 😉😝😁

For more details about the program, pre & post tours and other great info, or to register for the 2025 World Congress visit: https://www.skalcongresscusco2025.com/
