TTM Partnership Positions Across Australia as a Sports Travel Leader
In 2025, Across Australia welcomed a dynamic new partner into its growing portfolio of inbound travel services: Team Travel Management Australia (TTM Australia). Born from a strategic collaboration with Tourvest—Africa’s largest and most diversified tourism group—TTM brings decades of global expertise in elite sports travel directly into the heart of the Australian market. For Across Australia and its clients, this marks an exciting expansion into one of the most rapidly growing sectors of the travel industry: sports tourism.
With operations now fully integrated to Across, TTM Australia is perfectly positioned to deliver high-impact travel solutions for professional teams, federations, sponsors, and supporters attending major events such as the Rugby World Cup 2027, which will be hosted across seven Australian cities: Adelaide, Brisbane, Melbourne, Newcastle, Perth, Sydney, and Townsville. Additionally, the Netball World Cup 2027 will take place in Sydney, and the Brisbane 2032 Olympic Games are on the horizon. This partnership doesn’t just enhance Across Australia's offerings—it redefines them. Leveraging TTM’s international reach, hands-on event experience, and local insight, Across can now provide a level of specialised support for sports-related travel unmatched in the region.
In this exclusive interview, Damien Cornelli, Business Development Manager of TTM Australia, shares how this collaboration is unlocking new opportunities for Across Australia's travel agency clients and how, together, they are redefining what it means to deliver world-class travel experiences—on and off the field.
