TORONTO — Farole Kikkert, TravelBrands’ BDM for Alberta and Saskatchewan, is set to retire on Oct. 31 after 25+ years in the industry.

Farole rejoined TravelBrands in February 2024 bringing with her extensive expertise and long-standing connections to the company. Her history with TravelBrands dates back to the Fun Sun Vacations era, where she spent nine years in the same role supporting the Alberta market.

Over the course of her 25+ year career, she has also worked across air consolidation, cruise, tour operations, and retail, consistently driving growth while building trusted, long-term relationships with partners and clients.

“We are deeply grateful for everything Farole has contributed throughout her career,” said Bruce Lidberg, Senior Director of Sales, TravelBrands. “She has been a tremendous ambassador for TravelBrands, and we extend our heartfelt best wishes as she embarks on this exciting next chapter of her life.”

A search for Kikkert’s successor is underway.
