Quentin Long: The (Other) Voice Of Travel

Offloaded - The Travel Industry Podcast

Quentin Long is known to millions for his TV and radio work, during which he discusses travel and the industry that powers it.

In this interview Richard Taylor and Ann-Catherine Jones speak to Quentin about how he became such a powerful voice in explaining complex travel matters to the public, and how he himself keeps informed.

The screens and microphones are but a small part of Quentin’s working life. His major focus is Australian Traveller Media which he co-founded after realising that no magazine was adequately covering travel opportunities closer to home.
Amongst other things we talk about Quentin’s rules of taking famils, the rise of AI in publishing, how sustainability messages of the industry can permeate the public mind, why you need to visit Roebuck Bay, remembering people’s names and how AC became Quentin’s travel industry ‘Deep Throat’.

Elsa McLean from Regent Seven Seas Cruises dropped by for this episode’s Sales Call, to whet the travel tastebuds with a fabulous update.
