FCTG employees help to create change in 2025

This year, our people made our RAP real – not through a policy or a poster, but through the choices they made every day about how they travel, sell, spend and show up for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples and communities. Every module they completed, every volunteer shift they worked and every Indigenous supplier they backed has pushed FCTG closer to the kind of travel company we say we want to be.

‍

Here are the highlights:

‍

1,939 Australian Flighties completed our Cultural Awareness – First Nations module in Compass, lifting cultural knowledge and confidence right across our shops, call centres and support teams.​

‍

Flighties walked on Country in Melbourne, Sydney and Adelaide through Indigenous City Walking Tours, hearing the stories of the places we sell every day directly from Aboriginal guides.​

‍

135 of people put on an apron and volunteered in FareShare kitchens in Meanjin and Naarm, contributing 474 hours to Meals for the Mob and supporting thousands of meals for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities in regional and remote Queensland.​

‍

37 Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Flighties chose to share their voice in the 2025 Great Place To Work survey, and 26 mob identified in Kiosk, giving us the data and direction to make FCTG more culturally and psychologically safe.​

‍

Our people helped grow our Indigenous supplier spend from $2.85m AUD to $4.42m AUD, working with at least 24 Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander businesses and bringing more Indigenous‑owned product into the itineraries and programs we sell.​

‍

Our people backed Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities through RAP‑aligned sponsorships and events – from Living Culture Markets and QTIC NAIDOC events to Murri Gummaz, Baidam’s Deadly Choices Golf Day, Country Needs People, Indigenous Literacy Day and bikes for Mornington Island jarjums.​

‍

Every one of these outcomes is something our people achieved for our RAP this year – through their choices, their time and their support. Thank you for turning reconciliation from something we talk about into something our customers can see, our communities can feel and our Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander colleagues and partners can trust.

‍

Thank you for turning our RAP from words on a page into real change.
