E-Newsletter category.
With over 30,000 New Zealand subscribers and 360,000 subscribers globally, Express is a vehicle for Intrepid's community
of travellers to find inspiration, share their stories, win adventures and explore the world without even leaving their
desks. Delivered to inboxes around the world every week, Express was the winning e-newsletter from an impressive 258

honour.
Express Editor, Sue Elliot says, "Travellers, Intrepid leaders, travel writers and all sorts of adventurers contribute
to Express and their efforts make it the success it is today."
The Pacific Asia Travel Association (PATA) Gold Awards recognise exceptional achievement in a variety of endeavours,
bringing acclaim to the best the Asia Pacific’s travel industry has to offer. The winning projects set industry
standards for excellence and innovation, serving as examples for others to follow.

travel programme plays in promoting sustainable travel.
